13 Month Update

At 13 months and a couple of weeks, Everett is 31 and 1/2 inches long and 27 pounds and 9 ounces. He is wearing 18 month to 24 month clothes with a couple of 2T items mixed in the bunch.


He is totally crawling and scooting, cruising furniture, walking with assistance, and is going up and up the stairs (down is still a challenge).


He is transitioning to 1 nap a day and prefers Dada for everything. (The pediatrician says that this is okay and some kids are like that.)


Mealtimes right now are about him feeding us rather than feeding himself. This is cute, but it becomes not so cute sometimes, especially when he insists that you eat the green bean that he has already put in his mouth and chewed on. Yum!


Being buckled into his car seat is akin to medieval torture.


He recently decided to rearrange the ornaments on the tree. This means he takes them off and tries to put them back "on" by touching the ornament to the tree. He is genuinely surprised when just touching the tree with the ornament doesn't keep it up on the limb. He was able to find a spot to stick the ornament. See if you can locate it in the picture:
