I feel like this month has gone by faster than any of the others. But it's been so full of firsts and milestones! This past month saw your first time on a plane, your first haircut, and your first steps. You even ate more types of foods for the first time than any other month! You've gotten 4 new teeth. And my how you've grown! You're definitely in 12-month clothes now, even though I still try to squeeze you into a few of my 9-month favorites.
You're still sleeping like a champ with no sign of the nine-month sleep regression I'd feared. Most days you're down to only 2 naps, though if you have a shorter second nap you sometimes still want a third, and you're even sleeping in the crib for one of those naps most days. This is important because once Mommy goes back to school again, she'll be leaving during your afternoon nap so she can't wear you for that one anymore. Speaking of which, we finally found someone to play with you while I'm in class this fall, which is a huge relief for everyone!
You are learning so quickly these days. Putting things in and out and opening and closing and turning on and off. You put things away and throw your toys with such zeal it makes onlookers laugh. And your babbles still warm your mommy and daddy's hearts. I can't wait until your first definite word (and please make sure it comes before Mommy starts back in class!)
This next month will be the last full month Mommy gets to stay home exclusively with you, and it will be full of laughter, play dates, and cuddles. I cannot believe how quickly this first year is flying by, so let's just savor every moment.
Love,
Mommy
