14 Months Old

Devin has crossed the 14 month mark and is all grown up. He is such a fun kid. He still has a passion for the outdoors and music. If he had it his way, we'd play his CDs over and over and over! He doesn't really dance yet, but he does wave his hands up and down with excitement. He will do that in the car too.

He is a great eater still. He will even eat the olives off my pizza! What a deal. We pretty much have him on all organic food, and he seems to love everything. We are very lucky!

We think Devin has a few molars in the back of his mouth now. He'll chomp on you if you stick your finger in there to check, so we just assume there are some big teeth back there. Maybe the doc can get a better look with one of those wooden sticks today.

Devin is walking and running all over. And he has figured out how to bend over and pick something up and stand back up on his own. A true test of balance. He also loves to walk up the stairs and will wait for someone to grab his hand.

We are finally sleeping better. Yeah. For a while there, Devin kept waking up to climb in bed with us, but now he will stay in his crib all night. He will wake up, but go back down. And he is so funny. He loves to pile his blankets up and dive on top of them. Does having a blanket under you keep you as warm as being under a blanket? Probably not, but Devin loves to snuggle his blankets. I usually end up putting more on top of him in the night.

Devin spends his days with his grandparents rotating between Rich's parents and mine. We are so thankful for all the time they spend with Devin. He is learning so much from all of them it is fun. His latest trick is that he takes his diaper to the diaper pail. He puts it in and then waits for you to show it is gone. Pretty cute.

Devin goes to the doctor later today, so I'll update his stats in another post. I'll also try to get a few pics of him too.

We hope you all are having a wonderful holiday season. We are very excited for Christmas this year!
