1 YEAR OLD-sooo BIG!


Who knew this year would fly by the way it has. Davis has gone from a 9lb 14 oz and 21 inches long little baby to a 24lb 6 oz 31 inches long little boy. I would never have believed such a little (i know he was quite big) baby could change my life the way he has. He has such the personality and is so much fun to be around. Want to first take some time to tell you what he is able to do these days:
*He LOVES outside and is perfectly content with a golf club, dandelion picker or a ball. He rarely fusses outside and loves to open and shut the garage door opener. he also loves waving to cars as they pass and attempts to dogs as they pass on their walks.
*He loves taking showers with daddy, and whenever he hears the water run he immediately tries to get his shirt off so he can get naked!!! At the mention of shower he RUNs to the bathroom and pulls back the shower curtain!
*He says hi, hey, hidee, hot, dada, momom and Da (for davis) consistently and with intent. On a less regular basis he says lala, catch, Da-vis, and other words that he will surprise me and say like one time and never repeat!!! Makes the SLP in me so UPSET!!
*His auditory comprehension blows my mind. I know I am prejudice, but the boy is down right smart. He is able to follow pretty much any 1-2 step command, such as go put this diaper in the trash, take this to daddy, get your ball and give it to Cole, etc. It is so exciting to see him understand AND follow your directions!
*He adores his daddy and when daddy gets home he immediately runs to the door and screams for him! He also loves siting in his daddy's lap and watching his videos on youtube!!
*He NEVER meets a stranger. He will tell anybody hi and really won't leave them alone until they acknowledge him. We went to a U of L baseball game last week and he was very persistent with the little girl in front of us. He wanted to share with her and he wanted very much for her to like him. So sweet. He also loves the nursing home residents. He tells them all hey and gives them that one of a kind smile!
*He loves playing in his playroom and Loves to get out as many toys as he can! Messes are his favorite thing! (guess I got what I had coming-refer to I love messes blog!)
Most of all he is the sweetest little boy I know. He loves to hug and kiss and will lay one on you at the most appropriate times. Davis Walker you are one of a kind and your mommy loves you so much. Thanks for causing me to slow down, and take time for the little things! You are amazing!
