355 Days Old…May 27, 2012

We’re on the countdown for Anderson’s 1st birthday! Only 10 more days and our sweet guy will be one. I can’t believe how quickly this year has flown by!

Anderson was being such a little cutie this afternoon. His new favorite thing to do is roll around and play peek a boo at the same time. He was cracking up laughing at himself which got me so tickled! It’s amazing at how much fun he is!

We have finally made some progress with sippy cups!!! He has 1 that he will consistently drink out of, and another that he tolerates. I’m counting this as major progress! I still don’t count it as a total victory yet, but we’re getting there.

We’ll be back in 5 more days with another pic of our sweet little man!

350 Days Old…May 22, 2012

This little stinker is giving us a run for our money in the sippy cup department. He absolutely refuses to drink from a cup and I’m running out of ideas. I’ve tried about 10 different sippy cups, filled with everything from water and juice to milk and even sweet tea in a moment of desperation. I’m at a loss of where to go next!

Part of our problem could be the fact that he is cutting 3 teeth right now. He’s pretty grumpy and I can’t say that I blame him. We’re just going to keep trying with the cups and eventually we’ll figure it out!

See y’all in 5 more days!

345 Days Old…May 17, 2012

Anderson is so excited to be going to the beach tomorrow! It will be his first trip and I can’t wait to see how he does. Luckily he seems to have well recovered from his fever virus last week, but he’s still as stubborn as ever when it comes to the sippy cup battles! Maybe we’ll have some progress at the beach. Y’all take care!

340 Days Old…May 12, 2012

Our sweet little guy enjoyed playing on the putting green today while Jeremy and Jackson hit golf balls at the driving range. Anderson had a blast watching Jackson, and it’s only a few more years before Anderson has his own golf clubs and is hitting away with the big boys!

Anderson has had a fever virus since Tuesday and it’s been no fun! His highest temp was close to 104, and he’s really been cranky. Thankfully he’s feeling better and he is beginning to act like himself again. It has been a rough few days, but hopefully he’ll be back to 100% soon!

We’ll be back in 5 more days  as we continue to countdown to Anderson’s first birthday!

11 Months Old…May 7, 2o12

 

We’re 1 month away from Anderson’s first birthday! I’m super busy planning his party, and our sweet little guy is busy growing like a weed! We’re still not getting much talking out of him, but when he does decide to share his thoughts it is hilarious! He still has a sweet cackle for a laugh, and he is mastering making motor boat sounds.

We haven’t gotten anymore walking, but Anderson definitely gets where he wants to go by cruising around, and he is fast and sneaky!

Anderson still loves his bottle, and we’re all but done with his paci, and he’s still not taking a sippy cup other than to chew on it, but he’s learning to love real food. He enjoyed fried rice tonight at Tokyo!

Anderson got his first haircut today! My sweet baby doesn’t look like a baby anymore, but a toddler. I need to put a brick on his head because I’m definitely not ready for him to grow up. He looks very handsome, but I’m going to miss his shaggy hair!

We’ll be back in 5 more days!!

330 Days Old…May 2, 2012

As hard as it was to do today I somewhat captured a smile! Anderson is all over the place right now, and he’s getting much more confident walking around when we are holding his hands. When he’s crawling he’s fast as lightning! It’s so funny, but when he sees us with the baby gate in hand he starts crawling like a maniac to try to get past it before it is put in place! When the gate is up he starts crying because he wants to be on the other side of the gate so bad. He’s such a mess!!

That’s it for today. We’ll be back in 5 days when he officially hits 11 months old!!!
