14 Months Old

It's that time again. Time for me to give you an update on our little Mr. Noah. In just a few days he will be turning 15 months old, so I thought I better catch you up on what life is like for him at 14 months of age.
Here we go.......

• Growing like a weed: Like always, Noah has been busy growing! No exact measurements (maybe I will get him on the bathroom scale and get out Daddy's tape measure for next month's update) However, this month he graduated up to a size 4 diaper and size 5 shoe!


• A Mouthful: of teeth that is! Noah now has his 1 year (top) molars and is currently working on cutting his 2 bottom molars. He has a total of 10 teeth. His smile is so beautiful! As a matter of fact, everyone says "look a those teeth!"when they see him. He definitely has mommy's big grin. Love it!


• Tell me about it: Noah is talking more and more these days. He is learning how to say so many new words. Here is what is in his vocabulary ........hi, bye-bye, ow and owie (when something hurts), wa-wa (water), juice, num-num (hungry or food), um (when something tastes good), ahh (after drinking), Bella (his tongue goes wild with this one), doggy, get (to make Bella go away), hot dog (a phrase he learned from Mickey Mouse), Joshua (he can't say Nicholas yet, but that is a long and hard name to say if you think about it), Mommy, Da (daddy), done and all done (as he holds his hands out), thank you, down, and baby.


• Getting around: Noah took his first steps on June 26th. He walked from Tia's arms into mine while at the Children's Museum. Later on that evening we went to Grandma Connie's house and he took even more steps! He even stopped himself from falling down by balancing himself on both feet. He is not fully walking at this point and still prefers to crawl. However, little by little he is taking more and more steps!


• These are a few of my favorite things: Little Bunny Fu-Fu song (he even does the motions!), playing ball with everyone including Bella, getting pushed in the dump truck or Mickey Mouse airplane by Nicholas and Joshua, climbing up the stairs to see what his big brothers are up to, going down the stairs on his belly to see where Mommy is, laying on Daddy and watching TV, snuggling with a blanket while sucking his baby thumb, "re-organizing" mommy's lower kitchen cabinets (he is so "helpful" let me tell ya!), going outside (for a bike or stroller ride, playing in cozy coupe, swinging in his swing, and going down the slide), playing Where's the baby?, and looking for every one's (and his too) bellybuttons.
