We had a great time dyeing Easter Eggs!

Livin With Me

Hailey is always so creative in her choices to make her eggs look pretty.

Hunter loved dyeing the eggs!

I love how Hailey is looking at Hunter and smiling while she watched him have fun with his eggs.

Hailey and Hunter left these 2 eggs out for the Easter Bunny.

Hunter found his basket :-)

Hailey had to work a little harder to find her basket, the Easter Bunny definitely made hers a bit harder to find.

I am so blessed!!  Hailey 6, Hunter 15 months

Changes since last month:

Hunter tries to say everything!  I am going to try to remember his new words, but I know I will miss some- he says yellow, purple, Mickey, Minnie, mo-mo (remote), owwww (he says this whenever I pick up a brush, I think he must hear Hailey complain when I am brushing her hair, ha!).  I know there’s a lot more but I just can’t think of anything now… I think I’ll have to stop keeping track since he tries to say so much.

Hunter is a climber!  He tries to get into everything!  He goes non-stop and tires me out.  Hunter loves to go places, he wants to go somewhere every day.  He will go and get his shoes and socks (he picks matching shoes too, haha) and sit on the floor and wait for me to put them on while he is saying “ba-ba” (bye, bye).  If we don’t have anywhere to go he gets quite grouchy about it.  When it is nap time or bed time Hunter will say “nigh, nigh” and then he’ll put out a chair at the dining room table and bring me the boppy.  I usually sit at the table looking at my laptop while I hold him until he falls asleep, so he tries to get me to go do that when he’s ready for some rest.

Hunter is still nursing, he usually nurses twice during the day and sometimes once during the night.  He is completely on table food and is a pretty good eater.  He is willing to try anything and seems to like most everything he tries.

Sleeping has been a bit better… he naps in his infant car seat- a habit we will have to break at some point, but it’s working for now.  He usually naps for about 1 1/2 hours in the late morning/early afternoon.  He goes to bed at 8 in his bed and then when he wakes up he gets in bed with me and Rich.  Some nights he stays in his bed for a half hour, other nights for several hours.  We never know what he’s going to do.  He usually sleeps all night (he nurses, but is usually asleep) and gets up anywhere between 6-8.

Hunter is 23.9 pounds which is the 38th percentile, and he is 32 inches which is the 72nd percentile.  He wears 12-18 month clothes, but is definitely getting close to moving into the 18 month size.  He is still wearing size 4 diapers during the day and size 5 for bed time.

14 Months

Where do these months keep going??  I can’t believe it’s already time for a monthly update.  I know I am going to miss stuff this month, it’s just getting too hard to remember all the new things Hunter does.  Here are the few new words that I remembered to write down:

Pa-Pa (Hailey has always called my dad “Pa,” but Hunter insists on calling him Pa-Pa
Ma-Maw (Grandma)
Nana
Wasss-sat (what’s that?)
Sah-sah (pacifier)

The only new sign Hunter does is “please” because that’s the only one I showed him.  I wish I could remember to teach him more signs.

The other fun thing that has started this month is tantrums… Hunter gets soooo mad and has some major fits.  Gotta love that part of being a toddler.  Hunter also went down to one nap this month- one day he decided he didn’t want to take a morning nap anymore… so now he takes one nap, he is usually ready for it around noon.

I sure do love this little boy and look forward to our next month together.
