Yes...that would be his initials you see on his boxers!!! You may remember seeing these in a post I did after my Auburn baby shower. A sweet friend gave 2 pairs of these to Will and they are adorable on him. Those pics were for you, Amy!!!
Now that Will is MOBILE I have far less time to update the blog, read blogs, etc. He is crawling at lightning speed!
Here is a little about what life with Will is like now...
-He weighs 21 pounds and is 24 inches long
-He is eating real food now...well sort of. He no longer likes baby food so we have started introducing solids. So far he has had (and loves) cantalope, cheese, peas, butter beans, corn, chicken, and cottage cheese. We are having to be creative, especially with dinner because he is so hungry and gets frustrated that this process is much slower than just shoving a spoon in his mouth. I get frustrated too. Dinner has become a much more lively and loud ordeal. But I know it is just new to him and he will catch on.
-Bedtime has gotten better. I really think that he was screaming Sunday night for so long because he might have been hungry. That was the first night we started him on solid foods. He got frustrated with the texture and wouldn't eat anymore so we just gave up and he got milk before bed.
-He is growing out of clothes left and right. I try to remind myself of this when I see a precious outfit that costs way too much. He is in 18 month clothes right now.

His latest conquest was the kitchen. I was cooking and so I put a bowl and spoon on the floor for him. He had fun with that for about 2 minutes and then moved on to the next thing...the dishwasher. This seemed to keep him entertained for a while. It also kept me entertained when his feet started slipping and he was headed for the splits.
-He loves bath time with Daddy. He squeals and laughs and splashes. He has started this fake laugh that cracks us up. We have started brushing his teeth after his bath. We sit him on the counter in his towel. He loves looking at himself in the mirror! 
-His favorite book at the moment is Mr. Brown Can Moo, Can You? By Dr. Seuss
-He says Mamamamama and bababababa and gagagagagag all the time. He has said Dadadadad before but it has been a while.
-He produces serious crocodile tears when you tell him "No No." Our pediatrician told us we had to use a different, stern tone of voice with him when telling him no, or else he would just hear "la la" and not understand. His little lip puckers out every time I say No No in my "momma" tone of voice. Either we have a super sensitive child on our hands or one who is going to throw a tantrum when he doesn't get what he wants. I have already asked to borrow my parents copy of A Strong Willed Child. :)

-He has 4 teeth. 2 up top and 2 on bottom.
-He does NOT enjoy peek-a-boo. It scares him to death.

He is a cutie batutie! I miss him and can't wait to see him in a couple of weeks. I know he and Owen would have so much fun together. We seriously need to let them play - maybe the Daddy's can watch and the Mama's can go somewhere; anywhere that doesn't involve Cole asking me a thousand questions :) I can't believe how big he is. He is catching up with Owen! Oh, tell John that Cole definitely looks at me daily and says, "War Eagle Mama, War Eagle!"
Okay- I had to set up an account just to be able to post on this one! LOVE the boxers!!!Glad he is able to wear them! He is adorable and growing so quick! Miss ya!
