Here are Simon's one year pictures, just about a month and a half too late. It seems like the more mobile he gets, the less we update this blog.
Here are some of his latest stats:
- He's walking exclusively now, and has even mastered walking quickly and bending down to pick something up and then standing back up again. He loves to walk in a loop around our house and often laughs when he realizes he's found his way back into the living room.
- He has ten words (in the order he learned them, as best as I can remember): this, fan, car, clock, shake, bath, bye bye, dada, maraca, and shoes. Mama has *maybe* made an appearance. It's hard to say for sure.
- He loves to dance. We have not taught him this, but it started when we were at the Mexican restaurant. He would bop around and swing his arm as if conducting (that his Grandad taught him). He tries to whistle.
- He's a little bit of a picky eater, but we can always count on him to eat either kidney beans or strawberries.
- He really enjoys watching himself in the user-facing camera on my ipod.
