One year old!

I'm about a week late in posting this but I wanted to wait until Mason's one year appointment so I would have his height and weight. Mason officially turned one last Tuesday! I have to admit I was a little sad that his first year was over and he wasn't really a baby anymore. He is most definitely a full-fledged toddler now from the walking to the curiosity to the tantrums! Here's what Mason is up to this month!

He weighs 21 pounds 14 ounces which puts him the 34% percentile for weight

He is 31 1/2 inches tall which makes him the the 87% percentile for height.

He's still tall and skinny!

He is wearing mostly 12 month shirts and 6-12 month pants.

He is saying "mama", "dada" "baba" and "nana" and I'm pretty sure he's saying "that" when he points to something.

He is shaking his head yes and no and seems to understand the meaning of both words!

He is starting to follow simple directions- I will tell him to go get his ball and he gets it or when Jared is at work I tell him to go find Dada and he waits at the door!

He loves loves loves water! The other night we went for a walk and stopped to let him play in our neighbor's sprinklers. I have never seen him so happy! He was running through giggling like it was the neatest thing he had ever seen!

He is now riding forward facing in his car seat and loves it. It makes for much easier car rides!

He's on strictly whole milk in sippy cups. Hooray for no more formula! It took him a few days to get adjusted but he seems to love the milk now!

He is walking everywhere and trying to run! It took him about three weeks to really get the hang of walking but about a week before he turned one he completely dropped the crawling and became a full time walker. It definitely makes things a little more challenging having a walker around the house but he looks so cute with his wobbly walk that I don't mind too much!

Happy first birthday Mason!!
