He still is only saying Da Da. Every now and again we hear Wa Wa or even here recently Ma Ma (rare, but we're practicing)!
We are pretty much done with baby food. He still gets baby oatmeal in the morning but other than that, and the occasional veggie pouch, he eats big boy food. He loves grilled cheese, pb&j, all fruit, some veggies. He is still not a big fan of meat. He has tried it and will occasionally eat turkey, but spits out most everything else. His favorite food at the moment are baby Goldfish. LOVES them!!
He has become a screamer in the car. Not a mad screamer.....a "I'm screaming because I think it is fun to hear my voice" :). Combine that with Will (as Alex is screaming) screaming at Alex telling him that he is hurting his ears and we have had a few car rides that could not end fast enough. Thankfully we made it to the beach without many screaming spells!
Alex still takes 2 naps a day but is such a rock star if he misses one or both. He is content and happy and rarely EVER fussy!! We are truly blessed with an easy child!! He is almost walking. He walks all around the furniture and gets up the stairs QUICK!!
Memorial Day weekend was Alex's first trip to the pool and he loved it. He loved being in his float and was very relaxed. He equally loved our makeshift tent we made him, where he had an endless supply of goldfish (and a pretty cute friend that he was happy to share with!).
Obviously he requires lots of supervision when goldfish are involved :)
We love our little chunky monkey and can't imagine our family without him!! I can't believe a year has already passed. He is growing up each and every day, learning new things. This stage is so fun, but constantly reminds me of how quickly time really is passing!! Alex is definitely not a baby anymore. Maybe this is why Will prays for a baby sister EVERY NIGHT and has informed us we will name her Tanesha (one of his teachers names at school). Baby Tanesha Vakakes....now that would be a mouthful!! :)
