Snuggles is growing well. They tested his hemoglobin, and it's normal. He is a perfectly healthy little boy. We are blessed!
It goes without saying that Snuggles did NOT like his one-year-old vaccines. We had to hold him down while they gave him 5... count them... f-i-v-e shots! The poor little guy screamed in terror, and it was all I could do to hold it together, especially after I looked over and saw tears in Guitarman's eyes. Snuggles was fine after a few minutes, but I think it's safe to say the shots were harder on Guitarman and me then they were on Snuggles!
Snuggles has changed so much in the past couple of months! Here are a few highlights:
- Wears size 12-18 months clothes.
- Helps put his own clothes on, although he would rather have them OFF, as you will notice in the photos posted here.
- Crawls all over the place.
- Pulls up from sitting to standing position
- "Cruises" around furniture.
- Gets into everything he's not suppose to touch!
- Refuses to lie still while we change his diaper. (He screams so loud, you'd think we were torturing him.)
- Prefers to sleep on his tummy hugging a blanket, sometimes with arms/legs hanging out between the crib slats.
- We often find him standing up in his crib in the morning.
- Says "Uh oh!" purposefully when he drops something on the floor.
- Repeats "Uh oh" when prompted
- Doesn't say "Dada" or "Mama" intentionally yet. (We wish he'd hurry up!)
- Jabbers non-stop (Dada, Mama, Nana, Gaga, Baba, Rara and Yaya)
- Loves balls, tractors, and his new guitar and drum musical toys
- Loves pushing buttons, especially on things he's not suppose to touch.
- Drinks whole milk
- Eats almost anything off Mommy or Daddy's plate. He even likes lemons!
- Favorite food: Green beans, Chicken strips, Bananas, Pears, Ritz crackers
- Shows no interest in desserts (Whose kid is this?!)
- Uses a sippy cup to drink water or apple juice
- Refuses to drink milk from anything but a bottle
- Takes a nap in the morning and afternoon
- Sleeps through the night, usually from about 8 p.m. to 8:30 a.m. (Thank you, God!)
- Loves for Momma to rock him at night and sing him lullabies (Favorite Christmas lullabies include "Away In A Manger "and "Silent Night")
- Loves music and books (although he won't leave the pages open long enough to read them)
- Responds by shaking head side to side when you tell him to "dance"
- Loves to dance around the room with Momma (His favorite dance is "The Tango")
- Hates riding in the car seat!
- Loves every animal he sees, especially dogs.
Here are some picture highlights...
Snuggles loves balloons. Nana and Papa bought him a "singing" balloon for his b-day.
He absolutely loved it!
Snuggles really enjoyed his birthday celebration.
Especially the cake
He wasn't interested in eating the cake...
Just making a mess of it.
He loves reading books.
Loves cuddling with his blanket.
Loves his toys...
Especially his new drum
He doesn't like TV with the exception of "Yo Gabba Gabba".
We don't know what it is about it, but Yo Gabba Gabba puts Snuggles in a trance!
