Hi Moncheech!
This will be my last monthly post- now I will write to you on the blog every 6 months. It's already one frackin' month past your first birthday and I am out of numbered onesie stickers. Excuses, excuses...
Stats at 12 months:
29.25 inches long
20.7 lbs
Nicknames: Monchichi, munckin, munch, buddy, bug, pooper
Sleeping pattern: I gotta say it kid- you'll ruin us for future brat children! 13 hours a night, like clockwork.
Feeding schedule and foods you love to stuff in your face: You are starting to enjoy using a spoon or fork, you can even handle slightly clumpy yet not solid things like cottage cheese in a bowl all by yourself! I'm not brave enough to give you soup yet. New discovery this month- hot dogs, all beef all the time.
What you love the most: Pushing your cart with your lil' Frankenstein legs at top speed, going up down, up down, up down the stairs, pushing anything around the house like cars, boxes, or Styrofoam. Of course you still go nuts for your bath time.
What makes you mad/sad: being horizontal- changing table so torturous, must scream bloody murder!
Things I am loving most right now: That I don't have to carry you out the door or up and down the stairs because you love the adventure of doing on your own.
Sounds you are making: Some new words: book (boo) dog, and bubbles! It's still dada central around here. EVERYTHING is dada, dadeee, dadooo.
You are learning to: expand the teeth in your mouth,! Right before your birthday you had 4 come in at once on the top. You didn't get a fever or complain one bit. Cool motor skill developments include high and low fives, waving, and the sweetest clapping! You can do it while your standing independently on your own. We cue you with cheers of Yaaaaay Fiiiiiiin!

PARTAY!
What a glorious little being you have become over the course of one revolution around the sun. Happy BIRTHday Finn Henry!
Love you infinitely,
Mama
