13 months

You are 13 months old. I need to be better at maintaining your blog. Between uploading pictures, videos, and stories on facebook and texting relatives I forget to write on your blog as well.
You mimic sounds now. Whale noises from the sound lamb; the funny noises we make when we play with you. You can say the words:
Uby (ruby), hot, light, wow, dut (truck, New word this week!), bay bo (belly button. New word this week!), hat, bye, hi, hello, we are working on the word up. You yell out for DAD! DADDY! (I think you learned that from the neighbor girls!) You are an amazing source of energy. You may look like mama but you take after dada! Life is too much of an adventure to sit around and veg out/relax! You want to explore everything. You are taking an hour and 45 min nap in the morning and then fighting an afternoon nap. You'd love to go to bed by 5pm, but we stretch you to at least 6pm. You wake up usually around 5am and "sleep in" till 5:45am. I'm sleeping in your room at night because you have several wake ups but if I shush you you fall right back to sleep rather than work yourself up into hysterics. You are a funny funny hambone. You make us laugh every day.
This week Granda Kiss and Lisa are visiting. We facetime so often that you seem to recognize them right away.
