He is sleeping much better, almost through the night most nights. Once we get to spring break, we are going to try to move him into the room with Peter (which should be interesting). He is trying to grow up so fast, as is starting to imitate us, just like Peter did at this age. He takes tissues and napkins and cleans his mouth and blows his nose (and then tried to eat the paper, some things don't change). He talks on the "phone", and he cleans up. He loves to put items into boxes or bags, and is starting to figure out his shape sorters.
And since it is so late, I'm going to keep this short. From BabyCenter.com
At thirteen months, most children:
Use two words skillfully (e.g., “hi” and “bye”) – Not really. Still a lot of babble. And "mama"
Bend over and pick up an object – Not so much bending over as he is squatting, which makes his Crossfitting Daddy very happy.
At thirteen months, about half the children:
Enjoy gazing at his reflection – This is a big yes. He loves mirrors, and it is something that can calm him down when he gets upset.
Hold out arm or leg to help you dress him – Yes, he puts his arms in shirts, holds out his feet for socks, and also holds out his hands for his mittens (and I can't even tell you how great that's been since it has been so cold for so long).
At thirteen months, a few children:
Combine words and gestures to make needs known – No words, but he definitely gestures all the time. He is so big into pointing right now (started with the ceiling fans in Florida).
Roll a ball back and forth – Not often, but he has done this.
There are a few pictures in our March album, but the best pictures are in our winter adventures and Naples albums on Picasa (you need to be logged in to see). Next month, I'll hopefully be back to regular monthly pictures and more frequent updates (although we'll see how that actually works out).
