Cole Carlson: 1 Year, 3 Months

Cole buddy just keeps growing! We've noticed a lot of fun changes this month. He sure has his own little personality. Here's what he's been up to:

* he weighs in at 18 lbs (and some change). Still in size 12 month clothes and has grown into a size 3 shoe.
* he will push over any block tower that he sees, laugh, and then give his sister a hug.
* he has started running. Its not fast or coordinated, but he's definitely running.
* his hair is out of control and he needs his first haircut. It is super thin and straight on top with some curls at his neck. Out.of.control!
* he is sleep sack obsessed! He loves his sleep sack. If he sees it he's wearing it like a cape with his feet out to walk around.
* he has 7 teeth and seems to be working on a few more now. They have literally grown in from left to right.
* he is still not sleeping through the night. Some nights he wants a paci at 3 and milk at 5. Other nights we are up every hour and a half.
* he knows where his head, hair, eyes, nose, and ears are.
* he's not saying any new words, but uses a lot of inflection in his voice.
* he is a bit of a hot head. He gets upset easily and has started swatting at stuff. 
* he is able to follow simple instructions like throwing something in the garbage for me.
* he is still a mama's boy.
* he has learned the "cheese face" for picture taking.
* his favorite foods: bananas, go-gurts, corn, carrots, peas, deli meat, pasta, honey nut Cheerios.
* he loves to play with his balls, cars, shoes, pots and pans, and kitchen utensils.
* we switched him to soy milk since he was so constipated and prune juice wasn't helping. Since the switch he is doing much better.
