Where to even begin...for starters, our baby boy is one. Can you believe a year has gone by, where did the time go. He is so full of life, happy, talkative, curious, and unfortunately, or fortunately for some cases, a fearless child. The thing that amazes me most is how smart he is. I know all parents think their child is smart, but he really is. It's amazing watching his little wheels turn. He can now say quack, dog, duck, mama, dada, baa, moo, one, and points and says "ats at" or "what's that". He recognizes words and directions now too...for example if you tell him to bring you the "Oops" or "Dog" book he knows which ones to bring you. My favorite thing he recently learned is "What happened". He lifts both hands up in the air and shrugs his shoulders and gets the cutes uh oh face. I love it. There are more things he says, but it's hard to put them down. We are just having so much fun with the little explorer right now.
The thing that isn't so much for mom at least, is the fearlessness of this child. This is most evident when at the pool. He is now to the point where he is diving off the steps and into dad's arms. He loves to go underwater and is holding his breathe. He's also getting the hang of kicking his legs and arms. It's truly an amazing thing for us to watch and not too mention hilarious. I can't wait until he goes into a lake or non-heated pool for the first time, we'll see just how fearless he is :-).
