pearson {14 months}

Pearson, you are such a busy little boy!!  I love it though and I wouldn't have it any other way.  You keep me on my toes!!  We love to watch you learn and grow.  You are learning something or doing something new every day.  You are mimicking so much that we do, too.  You are so smart!!  You bring so much joy to our lives and we

Measurements: 22.5ish pounds and 31.5ish inches

Clothes: 

• shirts/onesies: 12-18 shirts 
• shorts: 12-18 month 
• pjs: 18 months
• diaper: size 4 
• shoe: size 4

Sleeping: Your naps have gotten a little later this month and sometimes your morning nap is nonexistent. You nap from 10-12pm and 3-5pm; you sleep at night from 7:30-7:30.  

Eating: You are weaning exactly how I wanted you to.  I want you to wean when you were ready. Last Monday (13th), when I tried to nurse you before bed you were not interested at all, so we just dropped the bedtime feed.  You are still nursing well in the morning, but I plan to drop it by next month. You have a sippy cup of milk after each one of your naps and I offer you a small cup of milk before bed.  You still love to eat! I swear you would eat all day if I let.  This month you decided that you like grapes again.  You also tried raisin, dried cranberries, yogurt covered raisins, & greek yogurt this month and loved them all.  You pretty much have whatever we have for dinner these day and eat it all. 

New Tricks: You are almost running, you can walk backwards, give high fives, play peek-a-boo, dance when you hear music, sign "more", climb down from the couch, fake cough. 

Words: Dada (Daddy), Go (when he waves), Doh (dog), Da("dat"), Woah (hello).  You will say the "Mm" sound sometimes and you will even say Ma sometimes, but you still won't say Mama!!!

Teeth: 7 (five top/2 bottom) Your top left molar came in this month, and I think your top right molar will be popping through anyday now.  

Likes: Getting into the dog bowl, pressing the button on the printer, taking toys out of the drawers and bringing them to us on the couch, playing ball with Daddy, playing with anything with wheels,  watching videos on my iPhone, playing with remotes and phones

Dislikes: When we make you sit down in the bath tub, getting your face wiped after meals, when I stick my fingers in your mouth to feel your teeth.

Other Random Things:

• We finally baby proofed some of the cabinets last week.  
• Every time you wake up, the first thing you do when you see us is pick up your blanket and throw it out of the crib.
• You still won't say mama. Sigh....
• You love playing in our closet.  You like to hit the hangers, move Daddy's shoes and hide in all my dresses.
• Anytime "Wide Awake" by Katy Perry or "Call me Maybe" by Carly Rae Jepson comes on you always start bobbing your head in the car.  You love those songs. 
• You love to pull things out of drawers.  In your room it's the shorts drawer, in our room it's my panty drawer (ewwww!) and Daddy's hat drawer, and in the living room it's all of your toys.
• When we tell you it's time to eat you go to your high chair and start saying "Noy, Noy Noy"and a few other strange sounds.  We have no idea what that means!!

Look how you've changed....
