Stinker!

 Yes, Mr. Smiles has officially reached “stinker” status in our home! Climbing everything in sight and quickly transitioning into “boyhood”. He mastered climbing the couch, the hamper, the table, the kitchen stools, the bed, and nearly out of the crib in a matter of weeks. Ugh!

I am thinking a “big boy” bed transition is in our very near future. The girls were both out of the crib by 21mo but at 16 mo??

 

 Here my little man is in action…climbing the dirty clothes hamper of all things!! His monkey toes can help him climb virtually anything.


Getting his balance…..

 SUCCESS!! Dear Lord…Pray for my sanity!

Almost “ONE”!!

It is hard to believe…my “little man” is almost “ONE”! Mr.Smiles you are such a joy to have in our life!! We are blessed beyond words with your charming personality and your wonderful disposition! Although, STILL a terrible sleeper (just like your sisters) we love you just the same.

 Still crawling at lightning speed…I’m shocked, but O.K with it too! It seems as though you do everything “fast” soooo…Im sure when you walk…it will be more of a “RUN”! You have grown up so quickly from a tiny baby….to a self feeding (still nursing)…bundle of fun!

 You helped “manage” our first family lemonade sale!!

You are a true water baby from birth…never so much as a “squeal” in the tub! Splish, splash…you love taking a bath, swimming, and yes, boating 🙂 Well, all except your life jacket…you much prefer to be on the go or sleeping down below to the hum of the engine.

“3” kids later the little blue pool…is still a hit!! Although, it is getting a bit tight…time for an upgrade? Or at least a city pool pass for those “hot” summer days ahead. The weather around here has been one extreme to the next…60-90 degree in any given week.

Mr. Smile Stat’s; 6 teeth (four on top, two bottom), drinks from a cup (although, he still loves nursing approx. 6 times in 24 hrs..YIKES), loves to eat (still staying away from rice, and “orange” veggies due to  extreme eczema problems), crawling, says “momma”, “dadda”, “hi”, “KA (car)”, makes the sound of a car, “woof, woof”, LOVES to talk..can you tell? Blows kisses, gives high five, waves, learning sign language, O’ and I have my first “biter”!! Tips on breaking this would be appreciated!! 🙂
 

Mr. Smiles..says “Thank you” for spending his first year with him!!

O’Boy!!

So yes, Monday was Labor Day but we had our own “Labor Day” around here Tuesday/Wed! Good friends of ours welcomed their first son much to everyones surprise 5 weeks early, my sister and brother in law welcomed another boy to the family, and the funny part is I know of 3 other boys born this week with one more nephew on the way anytime now!! Can you say “O’BOY”!!!

Welcome my sweet little nephew (he doesn’t have a blogger name yet 🙂
