Conor Christopher: Thirteen Months


Conor by month 1 // 2 // 3 //  //  // 6 // 7 // 8 // 9 // 10 // 11 // 12

Growing // At your pulmonology appointment at Childrens (just three days after you turned 13 months) you weighed 17 lbs 3 oz (2nd percentile) and measured 26.5 inches in length (0 percentile).

Eating + Sleeping // You are eating about 8 oz 4 times a day and you are eating just formula these days! I am no longer pumping, which feels so incredibly bittersweet but it's extremely freeing. You've started slamming your legs down on the ground and fussing alot when you're hungry. So it's truly made feeding you easy as we're finally seeing you use all sorts of cues to communicate with us. And you've started to play with my hair when I feed you. It's so cute. You really love feeding yourself food these days. At first it was us feeding you little bits, but now you just purse your lips until we put it out in front of you for you to pick up yourself. Mr. Independent. You still aren't a huge fan of fruit, not even bananas. But you really love bread, potatoes, carrots, avocado, string cheese, cereal, meat, broccoli. You're really happy just eating anything you can feed yourself! 

The end of this month we tossed your wedge away. We kept finding you in the cracks of your pack n play as you kept falling off your wedge. You'd kick against the pack in play and the wedge just fell apart with the momentum of your body I think. So one night, I just decided to toss out the wedge and throw your crib mattress into the pack n play, and you slept flat on your back the rest of the night. There were a few times where it took you a short while to go to bed, I'm considering that an adjustment period. But you're sleeping like a champ on it now! You're still in our room, and we really need to move you out, but it's no bother to have you in with us since you sleep straight through the night - 6:30-6:30 or so. You're always the first one up! And then you're doing two naps still, morning and afternoon. But I'm always having to wake you up from your afternoon nap to go get Jack from school. Bless you baby!

Wearing // The last week or so I've had you in alot of 12 month rompers. And all of your pajamas are 12 months, but most of your onesies are still 9 months and your pants are 9-12 months. It's wild to think you're wearing some 12 month things as technically according to your due date you're just 10 months. 

Loving // You really love sitting in your highchair and feeding yourself. And you love playing on the floor and rolling around. You really love when I sing to you - you always get a giant smile on your face. And you love reading books! And you really love your brothers. And you love waking up in the mornings and are all smiles  and squeals when I get you out of your bed. You love slamming your legs on the ground, so you lay on your back and lift your legs up and bang them on the ground.

Loathing // You really loathe when anyone takes your toys away.

Nicknames // Connie bearsy

Doing // You cut two more teeth this month - two top ones. You are sitting on your own!! You've gotten so good at this, I don't even worry one bit about you. And you finally rolled from back to front. You really just love playing on the floor and rolling around! And I got rid of your baby bath, so you're bathing in the bath like a big boy now. 

Doctors Appointments // 3 occupational therapy appointments, 1 visit to North Seattle Pediatrics for 12 month checkup. And that's it! Crazy to think how much your appointments have dwindled, you'll have a few next month, and a bunch in July for your 15 month appointments, but we've really made it through the masses. 

Milestones // First Easter, first time in a shopping cart, first birthday party at Richmond Beach, first mothers day with you home!! 

Jack by month 1 // 2 // // 4 // 5 // // 7 // 8 // 9 // 10 // 11 // 12
