Legend 12 months

This is way past due... you'd think during the summer time I would get MORE things done, but instead I have just enjoyed being able to "lounge" around the house... in other words, chase Legend around and clean up whatever mess he's just tornado-ed his way through, or re-clean whatever he undid of my cleaning for the day... if that makes sense. All the same, it's still been a pretty laid back summer so far.

So here it is...
at 12 months Legend is

- trying to match the tone in a song as well as singing along to certain parts
- beat boxing with daddy
- will kiss babies and dolls, but no one else
- calls Graci "cee cee", can say Tate, and said "carter" once but refuses to do it again! He also calls babies "di di"
- knows how to sign "take a bath", "dad", "milk" (better than before), "hat", "sit", "baby"
- starting to bounce to music
- makes monkey sounds and dog barks
- will lay his head on your shoulder for a hug and say, "aaaawe"
- blows kisses
- puts phone to hear (or technically the back of his head) and say, "hello?"
- copies dad when he's mad by saying, Shhh!
- gives the dog his food
- jabbers ALL the time

Can't believe how big Legend is getting, it's so much fun to see all the new words and signs he picks up!
Legend is SUCH a cheese ball and loves to be the center of attention everywhere we go. He is standing up on everything and such a wiggle monster that it's hard to change his diaper and clothes because he just NEVER wants to hold still.  He loves to climb in to the dog crate and play with Avett.  Legend loves bath time and sleeps great at night still and is all around a very happy little guy!
