Talented Baby K

With his first birthday drawing near I find myself reflecting on the past year with him. We were so blessed to have such a sweet boy. Its funny because Mr O was a great baby and everyone told us - don't have another one because there is no way you'll get 2 babies like that. We must have been really good or something because Baby K was so easy going, a good sleeper, never colicky, basically just a joy to be around! The "perfect" baby

Now he is a toddler. He is walking and has been for about 2 months. He likes to put things in the garbage - things that don't belong in the garbage. Things like our canned goods from the cupboards. He loves loves loves Mr O and for the most part they play really well together. Baby K makes kissy noises now, he gives mooches, waves bye bye, says "Mama". He's trying to figure out how to open the baby gate.

As he gets older his strong will is showing. He is putting up a fight when Mr O tries to take things now. Just this morning they were having a tug of war over a toy. He has temper tantrums - real ones; lying down kicking and screaming. We're working on that though. He has the saddest little face when his feelings get hurt. He's a sensitive loving boy. I'm looking forward to what his next year has in store for us.
