Milestones: This month he has learned more sounds and has started copying us more. He will copy five things pretty much every time. Coughing, blowing, a clicking noise with his tongue (this has become his favorite), Ah Ah (this happened when my sister tried to get him to say Ash Ash and he repeated it without the sh, and Da Da. He gets really excited about all these words and sounds and you can tell he is proud of himself for repeating them. He will NOT say mama! He's very attentive and will repeat those sounds even when we aren't talking to him and he just hears them, but when it comes to mama...he just looks at me like nope! not ready for that one mom! He has started experimenting with baba so I'm hoping mama is next! He is also waving now and will wave at strangers. It's so cute!!! He's walking along the couch and his crib while holding on and has stood for a few seconds without holding on, but I think it will be at least another month before he's stable enough for taking steps. A not so fun new thing has been teaching him the word no. If we say no to him he just immediately gets his feelings hurt and has thrown some fits when he has been really tired. 

Sleeping:  Sleeping through the night perfectly! He goes to bed around 7:30 and wakes up around 6:30. We want to get him to an 8-8 schedule, but getting this boy to sleep until 6:30 has been a huge improvement so I'm not sure how we will get him to sleep in. I know he needs more sleep because by 8:00 am he is ready for a nap! He takes two naps a day and still wants a bottle right before he lays down. We lay him down and he sometimes talks himself to sleep. 
Eating: Eating has changed a lot this month! Our doctor told us he can start eating table food and really anything as long as it's small enough for him to not choke. We give him some kind of fruit baby food during the day, puffs, and vegetables at night. We have given him table food a few times and he loved everything. He really likes cut up avocados, rice, and beans. He is also finally starting to drink water, but spits a lot of it out. 
Activities: He is busy all day long! It seems like he is constantly on a mission and wants to crawl and pull up on everything. He likes to stand and play at his music table and dance. He still loves to be outside. He screamed out of happiness one day when I walked outside with him. He loves playing in his room with his bear chair and he loves giving all his stuffed animals hugs and kisses. 

 Favorite Things: Stuffed animals, new toys, music, blankets, puffs, playing all day long!
