14 Months!

We have had so much going on! I have once again started up with my criminal justice degree as well as placing my application in with the Oregon State Police! Yay! Back to school full time, working full time and raising a rambunctious little one year old is quite the life! He is now saying something new almost every day. Yesterday, when he was done eating his breakfast, he raised his arms and said "All done!" We're up to two word combos! He also says "dog", "hat", "hot" and "that". He'll point at anything and say, "that". He is just too darn cute! Still not too much luck in the hair growing department... but the hair that is there is blonde... where did that come from? We love using gel and giving him a mohawk. He is very in to brushing the eight teeth that he has. He has also entered in to the temper tantrum stage! Boy is it fun when he throws himself down and begins to kick and scream... ahhhhh, the joys of parenthood. In a way, it's kind of funny... I find myself trying to hide the smile that begins to inch across my face when he does this. Oh my goodness, and if anyone needs a kiss, he will gladly give you one... he will literally go around kissing EVERYTHING! What a lover. We hope that everyone has had a wonderful begining to their new year. Well, it's off to bed for the little one.
