Jotting to Jonah: 12 Months old

12 Months old!

(as of June 23, 2014)

25lbs, 30″

Breastfeeding & Solids:

You love food! One new thing you’ve had this month are olives and you love them. Green and black! Oh meatballs too. And you love them.

Sleeping:

You are back to sleeping wonderfully again. You are getting so many teeth, I really am impressed with it. The back gums are swollen puffy and purple! Poor baby. Teething tablets are pretty much amazing. You sleep in our bed with us. Sometimes snuggled up to me but mostly sprawled out.

Diaper Duty- Potty Training:

You are still doing great. Sometimes you tell us you have to potty and you just pee, but you always tell us for #2! You actually did #2 in your diaper once this month and boy it was a bad one! Shoooweeee! We were driving home from Amanda’s apt and Jaidan told me you signed potty but there was no where to stop and I figured it was just pee. :/ yuck! I’m so glad we don’t have to clean that regularly. If you can’t tell I just don’t do diapers that well.

Clothing:

We boxed up all the 12 month clothing. You are in 18 months stuff and some 2t (mostly shirts). Your clothing mostly consists of polos t-shirts and cute shorts. (Because that’s what we had with Jaidan) We have a couple onesies left but we are not a fan of onesies after you start potty training.

Developmentally:

Since I am writing this a few days late I’m going to skip this until next month because you are doing a lot and saying a lot more but that should really go in your 13 month update. I know, I’m way too technical about this.

Big Brother Jaidan:

I never understood when people said the younger one wants to keep up with the older one. I mean I get that statement but usually people just say things to talk. I actually understand it now because you act like you are the same age as Jaidan! You want to play with the toys he plays with, go where he goes and you are basically running to keep up with him.
