It has been three months since Liam’s one year birthday. He is so enjoyable and is getting to be such a playful, spirited little man. In my last post, I predicted that he might not crawl and go straight to walking, but I was wrong about that. Thinking about this made me realize just how much has changed and how much is new since my latest Liam update, so I decided to try and remember it all.
Right now, Liam is:
- Clapping his hands whenever he is proud of himself or whenever he hears someone excitedly proclaim “Yea!'”
- Blowing kisses
- Kissing his teddy bear and other stuffed animals. He loves cute things, just like his older brother, Gabe.
- Waving hi and bye with and without being waved to first
- Saying “mama”, “dada”, “all done”, “hi”, “hello”, “bye”
- Signing “more”
- Jabbering like he thinks he’s having a whole conversation with me
- Fake laughing… like hysterically, while slapping the table and shrieking
- Pretending to talk on the phone, asking “hello?”, and jabbering
- Talking with his hands, and shrugging his shoulders (he’s very expressive)
- Swiping on the iPhone, iPad, and other touch screen devices
- Crawling on all fours
- Climbing anything and everything, including furniture and stairs
- Pulling to stand and cruising
- Still scooting on his bottom ;)
- Eating just as much as his older siblings (but throws food on the floor when he’s done. ugh.)
- Feeding himself with a spoon
- Drinking from a sippy cup, a straw, and an open cup (when I let him)
- Dancing like crazy
- Turning on his own CD player by himself
- Pretending to brush his hair, eat play food, feed others/share food, and other pretend games
- Loving the slide and the swing and the ball pit
- Shaking his head ‘no’ and nodding ‘yes’
- Making funny faces (especially with the tongue)
- Enjoying his older siblings… he thinks they’re pretty funny
- And so much more!
