Nolan - Dec 2013/Jan 2014

 
Nolan Michael you are such a ham.  In the last month you have learned how to get into everything and never quit moving.  You love to pull all the dishes out of the cabinets and drawers, the movies out of their basket, the stuffed animals out of your room, the laundry out of the dryer and pretty much anything else that isn't nailed down.  You keep me on my toes!

You also love messing with your brother.  You will walk up and hug him one minute and then slap his head the next.  He has started wrestling you and you love every minute of it.  It makes me so happy to see the two of you growing close and I hope that you will become friends as well as brothers.
 
You have really started noticing and mimicking what goes on around you.  You start dancing the minute you hear a beat (a cute little booty shake) and you point and grunt and copy words.  You are starting to notice the TV and love to flip through books.
 

You are so proud of yourself when you get where you want to go and will look back at me and say "oooooo".  You have also learned to shake your head "no" and when I get on to you, you just shake your head and smile.
 
You are still a great eater and won't turn many foods down.  You really, really enjoy Mexican food.

 
Christmas was a lot of fun for you and you loved Santa and the Christmas tree.  You even did a pretty good job opening your presents for being so young.

Even though you are a happy happy boy, every time we took you to the doctor you'd have an ear infection.  Most of the time I didn't even know anything was wrong because you weren't really all that fussy, but at your well baby visits they would catch it.  So, the doctor decided to put tubes in your ears.  This made your momma a little nervous because they had to put you under to do it, but the whole procedure took about 15 minutes and then you were back in my arms.  The hardest part was keeping you in the room pre-op.....
waiting and waiting

making a run for it
And my dear I will apologize now.  It looks like you are going to have my curly frizzy hair.  You had some crazy curls going on and it was sticking out everywhere, so we got you your first cut.

Baby boy, from the very beginning everyone has commented on what a happy baby you are.  You bring me so much joy and I can just tell how sweet and kind you are going to be.  I love you so much and love watching you learn and soak everything in.
