13 Months!










Asher is 13 months old and all toddler!  He is finally to the age of being able to really play with the other kids (hide and seek, guns, etc.) and also get into all of their things and bother the heck out of them :-).  I am really enjoying watching his relationships grow with Eli and Cora as he grows and becomes less of a baby.  At 13 months:
1.  He loves singing and dancing.  He spins, squats, claps, and grooves to any music.  He also loves singing now.  He will sing, "ABC's" and "Baa Baa Black sheep" and even parts of "Every Move I Make".  He sings in a really high pitched voice that is just too cute!
2.  Is talking more and more.  Here are the words he can say at this point:  This, car, go, night night, bye bye, thank you (tone), Mama, Dada, more, cheese, Nana, Bum, ball, Papa, ice, growls like a lion, and quacks like a duck.  He will try to copy all the time.
3.  Asher loves walks, playgrounds, swimming, fountains, and just being outside in any way shape or form!
4.  He loves reading and brings me tons of books saying, "THIS!"
5.  He has started throwing little tantrums when he doesn't get his way.  He will throw himself down on the ground or sometimes act out by hitting or pinching.  Ah, the toddler years.
6.  He wants to do, eat, or play with whatever the big kids are doing.
7.  Asher loves Hex Bugs, balls, cars, airplanes, hide and seek, guns, dinosaurs, sand box, wrestling with Dad  etc.
8.  I have started weaning him.  He is down to two feedings a day and one at night.  I am hoping in the next few weeks I will be done!  After 6 years of either being pregnant or nursing I am ready!
9.  He has been having a lot of ear issues over the past month.  He has had two ear infections and has fluid filled ears.  We are heading to the ENT next week to see if the fluid is gone or he will probably get tubes.
10.  He can run really fast!
11.  He still is a "Mama's boy" and loves snuggles, kisses, and hugs and being with me.
12.  Asher has started giving Eli and Cora open mouth kisses.  It is so sweet!  He also loves giving "high fives."
