Lillian and I took John Whitten to see Dr. Walley for his one year check last week, and believe it or not this little boy is slimming up! But before I get to the good stuff let me give you a little run down of my sweet boys milestones:
-he is walking everywhere! Shaun makes fun of me for still counting how many steps he takes at one time. I called him the other day and said, "John Whitten just took 32 steps!!" Shaun's response, "Melissa, he is just a walker now. You can stop counting".
-still doesn't eat food, but we are working on it. We can get him to eat yogurt and that is better than nothing we think.
-LOVES to dance and clap his hands
-he is wearing 18-24 month clothes
-is starting to climb on everything. He will pitch the cutest little fit if you make him get off of something.
-he has really started to want to be with Shaun a lot more lately! When Shaun comes home he walks right up to him saying, "Dada, Dada, Dada" and holding his arms up to him. But believe me, he is still a Mamma's boy.
-LOVES for me to push him in his little car and go on walks
-he laughs ALL of the time
-says "Momma" and "Dada" very clearly and jabbers all of the time.
-he melts my heart....
I cannot get over the fact that this little boy is ONE! Blows me away to think about how much he has grown and changed over these last 12 months. Okay, now for the numbers you have all be waiting for:
Weight: 25 lbs 4 oz (he only gained 4oz between 9 months and 1 year)
Height: 31 1/2 inches
Head: 18 inches
his hair was crazy that day
The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon
Psalm 92:12
