Coda news

So much happening with Coda these days.  That's the fun part of having a really little one, changes happen SO quickly, it really makes you seize each moment.  He started sleeping through the night around 10 months.  Teething certainly alters this but for the most part, he does well.  He goes to sleep around 7:30/7:45pm and is up usually around 6am, closer to 6:30am on a good morning.  Yep, right now we have one early morning guy and late sleeper gal.  Nev sometimes doesn't wake until 9/10am so on the bright side, it gives us a little 1:1 time with Coda each day.  He started taking steps right before he turned 1 year old and now he can walk up to 8-10 steps at a time and is very mobile.   He LOVES walking from dad to mom and vice versa.  Also, he loves birds, airplanes, balloons, and playing ball.  He plays independently very well but still likes social play time and REALLY likes to be held still, loves to hug and kiss (open mouthed and drewly but WONDERFUL in our eyes).  He went to his 1 year doc appt and we found out that he weighs 21 pounds, which is only in the 25% and is in the 75% for height.  We transitioned him onto WHOLE MILK right after his birthday and he did well with the change.  He did get a diaper rash at first but seems to like the millk taste, cold.  I am relieved to be off formula for many reasons, primarily because of how synthetic it really is.  Yucky stuff but necessary for babies like Coda who don't do well with nursing.  The doc actually commented on how perfect he is and I think she may have fallen in love with him a little, as it's easy to do.  He's even making animal sounds which the doc says is not common until closer to 18 months.  Always feels good when people love your kids and call them smart.    His one year old molars are started to bulge and his eye teeth are as well so we're standing by for more teething adventures!!!!
