Almost 1!
A year passes so fast when you have a little one. Nicholas is a few days away from turning the big 1. He's grown so much that I look back at pictures and can't remember him being such a tiny baby. He's now almost 20 pounds and about 30 inches. He was 7 lb. 15 oz. and 21 inches when he was born.
Jean and I had a bet as to when Nicholas would walk. It turned out that I was right! He took his first steps at 11 months. He was completely fearless and persistent. It's been around 3 weeks and he hasn't resorted back to crawling. I am going to miss the pitter patter of his hands on and feet when he crawled around in the morning! Since he's been walking, I've had fun looking for shoes for the size 5 feet. He now has a cute pair of runner and a pair of waterproof boots for the winter time.
He also has a number of tricks now too! He loves to grab our cordless phone, press the messages and page the phones, flushes the toilet, unravels the toilet paper, climbs up our two step stool, brought Cam his hair gel when he needed it in the morning, knows how to brush his hair, uses a toothbrush, claps and waves bye bye.
He isn't speaking much yet, but has a few words like dada, baba, nai nai (milk), and I've noticed him trying to copy what I say over the past few days.
