*Climbing (and hiding) underneath the Christmas tree.
*Pulling off the Christmas ornaments and bringing them to us. Sometimes he even says "ball" when he hands it to us. The entire bottom of our tree (as far up as Parker can reach) is bare of ornaments. Sometimes we will put the ornaments back up and within 5 minutes he pulls them off again. I have just decided to live with a half naked tree.
*Ripping the wrapping paper off of the presents. He has completely opened one present, and it happened to be his! It was his present from Grandma Duce, so we just let him have it early. Besides that, he has only chose to partly rip open 2 others.
*Playing in the pots and pans cupboard. It is really cute until he gets into the glass lids...needless to say we got a gate to keep him out of the kitchen.
*Shoes. Any shoe that he can get ahold of he puts his hands in and crawls with around the apartment.
*Going outside. He is such a good helper when it comes to putting on his warm clothes. He looks so stinkin cute!
*His binky! I thought that maybe if I got him liking a binky then I could slowly wien him from nursing. Well, it worked--just WAY too fast! 2 days after his birthday he decided that he didn't want to nurse anymore. OUCH! It is really nice now though. He has started eating better and sleeping through the night. YAY!
*Daddy-time. This month is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and I am so grateful. Except for 2 BIG tests, Tyler's schedule is empty for this entire month. We are so enjoying this quality time with him. Parker is so happy when his daddy is here. I am not looking forward to real-life returning in January.
Wow! I can't believe your cute little guy is already one and I haven't even met him yet! He's adorable. And just so ya know, I have a 4 1/2 year old who still tries to follow me into the bathroom and pounds on the door if I lock it...oh being a Mom! Give me a call if you guys are ever in Utah, we'd love to see ya!
