Kason is growing so fast! He is officially a walking, talking, 23+lb toddler! Can you believe it? He started taking steps a while ago and is now stringing more together. He wants to walk EVERYWHERE, but is not quite stable enough, so he cruises the walls a lot. I think he will be full on walking everywhere by the end of next week - he walked halfway across the living room last night and was so proud of himself!
He is also saying so many words! We have been working with him on signing (he signed please for the first time last week, but I can't get him to do it again), but he would much rather say the words. Words he has so far:
daddy
mama (although not often enough!)
hi (he waves and says hi to everyone he sees)
bye (he loves to wave bye bye but then hates it when the person really leaves :-P )
cat
car
teddy (most often just the te-, but sometimes the whole thing)
all done
all gone
hat
moo
cockadoodledoo (just the cocka part, though)
He is such a quick learner and loves his books! Anytime he is fussy, all you have to do is ask if he wants to read a book. He immediately brightens up and comes to sit with you. I love it! He has been playing peek-a-boo since 7 months, so he is an expert now and when Grandma O was here last week, he learned "So big". Now, he sticks his hands WAAAAY up over his head and screams if you don't ask him how big he is. She also taught him the hand gestures for "Open, Shut them". He also still loves music and loves to dance!
On the teething front, we are not doing so well. He has 6 teeth and is a very good eater. But, I am afraid he is cutting his molars right now and that has totally ruined his sleeping through the night. We were up for 2.5 hours in the middle of the night last night. Needless to say, we are all exhausted today! When will the teething nightmare end???
This month is a big month for Kason, as you already know. He turns 1 July 30th! Can you believe my baby is already a whole year old? We will celebrate his birthday in Texas. Kyle's best friend, Jeff, is getting married, so we will take Kason to Sea World on his birthday. Then, that weekend, he will have his first birthday party in Fort Worth with friends and family. It is going to be an exciting month!
Now, on to the pictures!
