12-Month David

David is an energetic, mellow, and happy baby.  He runs, climbs, and crawls underneath things.  He's still very easy-going, and rarely gets upset about things.

New Developments In The Last 2 Months

• He can walk and run.
• He can climb down stairs.
• He has a growing vocabulary: "bye-bye," "thank you," "what's that," "open," "mama," "papa," "daddy," "kitty," "whoa," "ow," "no"...
• He has six teeth, and two more poking through!
• He laughs at "jokes" now.  He is developing a good sense of humor.
• He dances to music.  He loves dancing to "What Makes You Beautiful," by One Direction.  For some reason that song gets him moving more than the others.

Favorite Foods

Pretty much everything, except foods that are too sour or bitter.  He LOVES bananas the most, though.  He begs me for bananas.  He also loves grapes.  He eats about three times more than Lizzy eats.

Little quirks:

• He has a thing for phones right now, but what baby doesn't?  He likes to pick phones up, push a few buttons, and then puts them back on the stand.
• He loves getting into the dishwasher and pulling out the utensils. He also likes opening up the cupboard in the kitchen where the garbage bags and ziplock bags are kept and emptying everything out.
• He practically slides down the stairs now, on his belly.  He moves really, really fast.
• His left thumb is still his sucking thumb.  He sucks it when he's sleepy or when he's sad.
• Lizzy is David's favorite entertainment.  He is fascinated by her.
• He likes to walk around the house eating apples Lizzy leaves behind.
• He love music.  His favorite song that Mommy sings to him is "Open, Shut Them."  He tries to do the movements and says, "open, open" while pushing his hands out in fists.  It's very cute.

I love my funny little boy!
