Davis is 13 Months Old!



Dear Davis,

You have written your monthly letters the first year of life, but you have gotten so busy the last couple of months, I thought I better take over the letters or they would not get written. You DO NOT stop; you are 100 percent BOY and very BUSY and we LOVE every minute we get to spend with you. You have such a fun spirit and you love life! You smile all of the time. You only get fussy when you are hungry, tired, your teeth hurt or when daddy or mommy tells you no.....ha! You are walking everywhere you go and you try to go so fast sometimes that you fall down. You have no interest in TV unless it is your birthday slide show.....you like to see pictures of yourself or people you know. You are beginning to point to your body parts. You can show us your ears and your belly......and I know you can do nose, but for some reason you will never do it when I ask....and then you laugh! You are learning new words everyday and you understand so much more than you say. Here are some of the words you can say (mama, dada, papa, duck, bath, book, hat, ball, dog, bye bye, you can make several animal sounds). You are in a phase where everything is a ba or a da. We can ask you to go get a book and you will walk right over to your basket of books and get a book out. Then we tell you to bring it to mommy or daddy and you do it! You are so smart! We love watching you grow and learn each day. Each day you learn something new......it is truly amazing to watch you develop. Doors are very exciting to you....you open and shut every door you can and you love it when you can shut us out! Dancing is your new thing.....you do it on command and I must say your dance moves are improving daily! You love to chase Hershel around the house. You LAUGH all of the time.....I think you got them from your daddy....you laugh at us and yourself constantly. You are very social and love to get attention from anyone you can.....you do this everywhere from the grocery store, to the mall, and church....you LOVE people! We are so thankful that you are a good eater. You eat whatever we are eating and that makes it so easy. There has not been one food that you have not liked. You squeal every day when daddy gets home....you love your Dada! You are wearing 12-18 month clothes, size 4 diaper, size 4 shoes, you have 10 teeth, but you are getting in two more and weigh about 22 pounds. You are now sleeping through the night again which is so nice (we had to let you cry it out a few nights to get you back on the right track...but it worked!). You go to bed around 8:00 and get up between 6:30 and 7:00. You are still taking two naps a day. Your favorite toys right now are your big car and your wagon and you just love to be outside. I could go on and on about you little buddy. Your daddy and I love you so much and we are so blessed by you!


Thank you for making us so happy....WE LOVE YOU more than you will ever know!


Mommy and Daddy
