13 months

This month Micah has:

• really learned to walk! He now slowly walks across an entire room
• said words like all done, dog, mmmmm (for milk or water), mom, dad, up
• sleeps pretty much through the night (except for when he was teething and starting to walk)
• cut his 7th tooth!
• been super focused on anything to do with dogs and points to them (in person and in books) and smiles and gets excited
• has a sense of humor and often tries to joke and laugh right at bedtime (oh man...I thought this wasn't going to start for a while!)
• misses his family and now gets a bit sad when he sees his Nana and Papa and aunts and uncles on FaceTime instead of in real life
• done an amazing job traveling yet again on our quick weekend trip to the bay area for a visit with Uncle Andrew and Aunt Cassie. both flights were at bedtime and he did great!
• started his co-op preschool with Gramma Susan
• loved playing with all of his birthday gifts
• gotten way more excited about playing at the park
• entertained Charlie and vice versa
• fed Charlie lots of food scraps
• eaten a lot more solid food
• started drinking lots of water with meals
• weaned from mommy milk

I was hoping to snap some 13 month photos, but Micah's cold has got him sleeping 12 hours a night, which means no Micah and Mommy play time when I get home from work. Instead, here are a few photos from the last few days that show him at this age.
