I can't believe my baby is one! Id like to say where did the time go but Dave and I both agree this year has been long. Jett has definitely challenged us this past year and it often wasn't easy but we love him dearly. Physically, we still have no idea who you look like. I guess you just look like you, and let me tell you.... you are one really cute baby! Your smile is adorable and when you get really happy you crinkle your nose and it melts my heart. You have 7 teeth, 4 on the top and three (almost 4) on the bottom. You are 30 inches tall and you weigh lbs. Your hair is light, but sometimes has a red or brown tint to it. Your feet are small and you where a size 4 shoe.
Jett you love to be tickled, and your brother loves to play peekaboo with you because you smile and laugh at him. You love any toy your brother has and I'm not sure you have a favorite of your own. You do have a raccoon lovie that you love very much. Your raccoon currently is sewn to your blanket so that you can't toss it out of your crib and cry. At night when we lay you down you gather up your raccoon lovie smash it on your face and immediately begin to suck your thumb. I have been so worried about loosing that lovie that you actually have an emergency replacement one on your dresser.
You still will not drink from any cup and it is so difficult to get you to drink anything. Right now you get a morning and nighttime bottle of your special formula. If we get you to drink 8 oz a day we are lucky. I worry you are not taking enough fluids, but I'm not sure what else to try. You have 9 different sippie cups and I have tried to give you everything possible to drink but you still only want your formula and it must be at coffee temperature. As far as eating goes, you are picky, you love fruit, and some vegetables but they usually have to be smothered in fruit juice. You LOVE carbs and cry if you see us eating bread and you don't have any.
Crying or wining seams to get you what you want so you don't say to many words. You definitely say Mama, and I feel pretty certain you say Dada and Dee (Brody) with purpose. Other than that you don't say any other words that I understand. You clap, and point, and have waved bye bye a handful of times. You crawel with lightning speed and cruise around the furniture quickly. Walking is something you seam interested in but don't have the guts to walk more than as step or two. Your sleeping has gotten better just recently and you usually sleep from 8-7 without waking to much, and you usually take one long nap a day.
Yesterday was your actual Birthday and Nana, Nee Nee and Papaw came to celebrate. When your Dad and I got home from work we made pulled pork for dinner which you didn't eat much of which was odd because its usually something you love. I think you are getting a new tooth so maybe that had something to do with your lack of interest in the meat. Brody and Nana worked hard to make cupcakes for you and you sure did love eating one after we sung Happy Birthday. After cupcakes we opened a few presents and you played with them all until bed. I tried to rock you to sleep but you just wanted your bed and your raccoon. We will celebrate more with the rest of the family in April, when we have your big party. We decided to postpone your big party just a few weeks so we could be outside with everyone. I don't think you will mind. ;)
Happy Birthday little buddy! Mommy, Daddy and your big brother Brody love you so much and can't wait to see you grow up even more in this second year of your life.
