Happy Birthday Tadpole

One year. It’s been one whole year, I can’t hardly believe it. It’s gone by so quickly.

Well, here’s what the little stinker is up to. He’s walking. Loves to walk, and really likes to take his little balls and practice his soccor moves. He picks up the ball and then tosses it in front of him and then kicks it with his feet and walks after it. It’s really good on his coordination and balance. He jabbers all the time, not really saying words though. We know he can say mama and dada but rarely does he do so. He seems to save them for “only when absolutely necessary” usage. He shakes his head no, he loves to give kisses and then climb all over your head. He loves to be upside down. Grab him by the legs or waist and pull him upside down and you’ll have him laughing and having a good old time. He climbs and sticks out his tongue and is generally the cutest thing.

His face is changing and while he’s never really had a baby face, it’s even less like a baby face. His features are just too well defined, I think.

A and E are so happy about being siblings that it’s really a warm wonderful home now. We rarely have black moods from E anymore and so things are good here. And they both are capable of babysitting for a few hours….scary. heh!! Actually they do fantastic with Tadpole and confidence with him will come in time.

On a kid note. Both kids made honor roll at school and A’s science team finished second in the district science bowl. YAY A!!!

    That’s such a fun age, I wish I’d enjoyed my kids more when they were toddlers! Not that I didn’t, but I probably didn’t cherish & appreciate the little moments. And they sure become a handful once they’re walking.

    12 days and counting until Judy’s 1st. I can’t wait. She just started walking on her own more than 3 steps.

    The happy, it warm-ifies me… ;-)

    I hope you have an especially splendiferous Mother’s Day, ma’am.
