James

James is a fun little guy. He likes to hear weird noises as well as make them. Sheep noises are some of his favorite. He loves to stick out his tongue and see if you'll do it back. He hates to keep still and is constantly moving. He is super independent and prefers to do things on his own. He loves playing with the basketball hoop, riding and pushing his walker, pushing cars and trucks around and watching other people. He loves the water especially playing in the bath or the kiddie pool but hates to be splashed too much. He is also finally starting to sleep through the night which has been wonderful. He has the funniest crooked smile and a deep little laugh when he finds something particularly funny. He usually likes to play on his own so I sit on the floor and watch him. He'll often suddenly stop what he is doing and come crawling over to me as fast as he can. He plows his head right into me, snuggles for a few seconds and then goes back to what he is doing. He is a super good climber and loves to do so. He climbs up onto the couch, up and down the stairs, trys to climb onto beds and without a doubt will climb all over you if you are laying on the floor.

He has had lots of firsts since we have been in Utah....first time riding his walker
First picnic
First time eating solids-just look at that face
First time sitting up on his own
and first Christmas.
He also took his first steps not too long ago, his first solid steps last Friday and is now getting more adventerous and walking around more. A video to come soon!
