ONE!



So Landon's first bday has come and gone. Kinda hard to believe....we didnt do much b/c we originally weren't planning to be here and it being on a tuesday meant that people wouldn't really be able to come here. We went to lunch at CPK and played outside and played with new toys, and he devoured his cupcake. It was so cute!


Otherwise this past week he's been sick and is just now getting over it. He had been having a raspy cough and snotty and then one night he spiked a fever of 103.9. He was already asleep in my arms so opted not for the bath but a cool washcloth that I would put on his neck and head. He had tylenol and slowly it went down but he slept with us that night and the night after b/c he just wasnt sleeping well with coughing and being snotty. But like i said its basically gone.

He got a cool pool playyard for a present here's a quick shot of it..its pretty cool.

We played with that today.
Here's an update on Landon's accomplishments: 4 teeth, can sleep through the night but he prefers not too..haha....says "duck" "doggie" "dada" and "hotdog" ( i'm apparently chopped liver)...he signs 12 words i think...(hi,bye,eat,more,milk,water,outside,please,up,tree,fan,light,---he's working on bath, change, and thank you but he doesnt do them consistently enough to say he has them...), walking like a maniac, tries to run, climbs all over everything, up everything, he's such a "monkey" which is why we call him that. He eats mostly all people food now and is still really picky..it changes from day to day. He loves hotdogs, and kiwis and pizza and blueberries and grapes but doesnt really like cheese or pears anymore. He still will eat applesauce occasionally... We are transitioning him to real milk. We have been mixing w/ his formula and he's now down to only one ounce of formula with 6 or 7 oz of milk. He is having 2 "bottles" a day but really only a bottle at night--sippy in the morning. If he asks for milk throughout the day i'll give him a bit, but he really likes his water. He will now scream and squeal to let us know he's displeased at something...I'm hoping he grows out of that..we're working on that little issue right now. He is still pretty good in public places and loves to say hi and bye to everyone he see. He loves to give me hugs and kisses, loves to hug his bunny, his doggie cooper and mostly every stuffed animal will get a hug if he comes across 'em. He likes to look out the window at the "ducka" and watch them waddle and "kawka" (quack).
ahhh...he starts daycare in may....and that should be interesting, he's still very attached to me at the moment...i'm looking foward to starting work though....i'll keep everyone posted and post some stuff about disney when we get back.

Let's get together soon and let the kids play in the pool! I can't believe Landon is already one. Did you guys get his birthday package?

Wow! ONE already?!?? The year sure flies by; huh?

Love the pool playyard! Do you know where it came from?

About the squealing thing... Belle still does that occasionally, but one thing that has helped to nip that in the bud is when she does squeal, instead of turning or running to her to "fix" whatever she's squealing about, without looking at her or moving from what I'm doing I say "Belle... No... say Mama", and most times she'll immediately calm down and say "mama" then I'll turn around and give my attention and ask her what she wants. Even if she isn't able to say it, she can usually point or show me what's bothering her. I'm sure Landon will be saying "Mama" in no time, so maybe you can try that approach with him?

I love that he says "hotdog"! :) Isn't it crazy how their taste for certain foods changes like the wind!?! So frustrating, but I'm sure they'll survive. :)
