new things with baby c after turning one:
  • he's become very demanding
  • he's also become very clingy to me (which is unfortunate seeing as to how i've been feeling lately)
  • he's very good at using signs to let us know what he wants (pointing)
  • he moves his head AND body up and down (like he's shimmying) to say yes
  • he shakes his head to say no (which happens a LOT)
  • he has suddenly developed a multitude of facial expressions (from squinting, pouting to arching his eyebrows)
  • he imitates us very well now
  • he picks up things and learns very fast now (flashcards, new tricks)
  • he refuses to eat his completely free of seasoning meals which i prepare for him. he wants to eat what we're eating
  • he eats less than half of what he used to (but still weighs the same. hmm..........)
  • he wants to feed himself and play and experiment with his food (squeezing the life or rather the juices out of them)
  • he's mighty strong for someone so small
  • he likes entertaining us (performing the same thing over and over again if it makes us laugh)
  • he's babbling all the time now (and he's loud too)
  • he does not want to take naps because he seems to think that things happen when he does
  • he wants to play all the time
  • he hates diaper changes. it really is a two or sometimes three person job. one to hold him down and watch his hands, one to entertain him, and one to do the diaper change
  • he gets bored of something once he's mastered it (the ipod, mobile phones)
  • he's discovered his penis - he always goes for it when his diaper comes off

i'm sure there's lots more but since i'm pretty forgetful nowadays..............i'll update this list as i remember them (provided i remember there's a list to update! haha)
