12 Months

Woohoo!! We made it!

Here's the monthly stats:

• 23.7 pounds, 29.5 in long
• On the verge of walking! Will walk while only holding one hand (though you can tell it freaks him out a little) Still mostly cruising along stuff to get where he wants to go
• Will stand on his own often, especially if he's distracted/looking at something
• TEMPER TANTRUMS. These have hit in full force. We're talking throwing his whole body face down into the carpet and balling his fists. It's kind of sad, but mostly hilarious.
• Starting to be become an independent thinker - aka opinionated
• Loves the swings at the park

• Wearing 18-24 month clothes
• Starting to transition from formula to cows milk, as well as off the bottle entirely (slowly)
• Constantly twisting his tongue on it's side. Really it's quite a talent, he's been doing it for a couple months

I guess you cant really see this small, but he has his tongue twisted in this picture

• Loves Touch and Feel books, books with flaps, and finger puppet books
• Is beginning to kind of have stranger/seperation anxiety, and wants his mommy most of the time

Happy Birthday Emmett!
