You're almost 1! I can hardly believe that in just 2 short months I will no longer be counting how many months old you are, but I will just call you my 1 year old. We will have a 2 year old and a 1 year old in our house! Crazy, chaotic, and exciting times!
Teething. Shoot, teething is so not your friend. But you finally let 1 little tooth poke through and you really cheered up once that happened. You smile and that 1 long tooth just sticks out and it's so adorable. Now, when you bite my fingers or my toes it actually hurts and you just smile that singular tooth smile and I almost want to let you keep doing it. Almost.
This month you've started to find a small motivation to move around, but you get really frustrated really quickly. I put you in the crawling position and you rock back and forth. It's adorable and your therapist says that it's such a good sign. Babies that rock in that position usually start crawling soon after. But you, instead of attempting to crawl you just rock back and forth and then when you decide you're done you calmly put your hands down go back to your belly. You throw a fit and roll over and keep throwing a fit until I put you back in the sitting position. Someday you'll need to either crawl of learn to sit up on your own. It's getting hard to keep putting you back up every time you fall over of purposely get on your belly to reach for a toy.
You're so tall. It's difficult to find pants that look good on you because you're super skinny and super tall. Someone even called you lanky and gangly. Those words are not usually endearing - but you and your cute self make them endearing. Jeans are so hard to get for you, so you mostly just wear sweats. I can't wait for the summer when hopefully I can fit you into shorts a little easier!
Little milo boy, I love you so much.
Love, your mamma
