Your development is happening so quickly these days. One day you are reluctant to pull up, the next day you're pulling up on everything, standing in your crib, and chasing the cats all over the house. You're full of smiles, and happiness (unless we try to wipe your nose), and you're curious about everything
Weight
17.4lbs (which is exactly what I got on our scale at home...which now two weeks later is showing you almost a pound heavier). This puts you in the 47% for weight. You're moving down in the percentiles mostly likely because you never stop moving these days.
Length
28 3/8'', which puts you at 85% for height
Head
17 3/4'' (why we switched from centimeters to inches, I have no idea.)
Diaper size
3, and I had to move the rise on all of your cloth diapers.
Clothing
Mostly 9-12 month. Your sleepers are almost all 12 month because you're too long otherwise.
Diet
You have a steady diet of my milk. On top of that, you'll try almost anything. You like fruits, bread, beans, veggies, and meat. You love pureed fruit in a pouch, but prefer to eat your meat just cooked. You love these dehydrated fruit/veggie things and veggie straws. You'll eat almost anything, although we're keeping you away from dairy and eggs right now.

You're generally waking up 1-2 times a night to nurse. I'm working on weaning you of one of those feedings and it isn't happening every night anymore.
Baby gear love
Our Tula gets used every day. You love being held and carried. You like the stroller, but being worn will always win out. You are very fond of your toys, and I just bought you some fake keys so that you'll stop trying to steal mine.
Milestones/firsts
Pulling up on everything, but now cruising. You have to be properly motivated though. You're finally getting less afraid of falling, or better at catching yourself when you put your hands down, so you're not standing there waiting for me to help you as much. You're speech is about the same as last month, although your emphasis on different syllables is changing. You can crawl much faster now, and squeal really loudly when you see things you like.

| you LOVE your minion dolls...they were mine but you stole them |
Likes
Puppets and stuffed animals (like your rabbit puppet and the minion dolls that you squeal when you see). Mom and Dad are up there in the favorites catagory. You cry when dad leaves for work in the morning. You like veggie straws and some different foods. You love the shower and bath.
Dislikes
Having your nose wiped. Being left alone. Newton running away from you. Mom not sitting on the floor playing with you, constantly.

Things I don't want to forget
The smiles, and the giggles. They are both amazing. I don't want to forget our first Halloween, and picking apples with my parents.

| apple picking! |
We dressed you as a minion for halloween and you thought it was great to play with the minion doll. You even picked up a piece of candy and dropped it in your bag. We only went to three houses, just so we could get the experience, and then go sit around a fire pit.

I don't want to forget the sweet moment at the end of the day, when you're done nursing and all snuggled up next to me, sweet and perfect. I love to lean down and smell your sweet smell, and feel your soft hair.
I don't want to forget how excited you get when you see either of us. It's wonderful to be loved that much.
I had a wonderful 30th birthday party this past weekend that it was so much fun to share with you. You really enjoyed meeting everyone, and smiling so much.
I really don't mind turning 30. I know some people have issues with getting older, but I have two wonderful people to grow older with, and that makes it so much easier.
