Preston's Milestone Recap

I feel bad that I didn't keep track of every move, word or food for Preston. I guess that's how it goes when you have more than one - not sure that it's fair. I could also blame it on the fact that he didn't sleep through the night for such a long time. 

Preston is a pistol. He is such a different baby than Aidan was -- not that I expected them to be the same. He gets in to everything and has a definite personality. He is energetic (i.e. not laid back). When he is happy he is really happy; when he is mad he is furious. He does not want to be left out of anything. 

Preston didn't sleep through the night once until he hit 10 months and even then it wasn't every night. He has had a rough time with sleep. It took me putting my name on the temple's prayer roll to accomplish it.

He is very verbal; even before we could understand what he was saying he was talking. He says "Na" and can make barking noise when we ask what the dog says. He understands A LOT! 

He calls his pacifier, pats and loves his blank (blanket). His first was mama and mah (for more). He is an excellent eater and loves fruits and veggies. He has never met a sucker he didn't like -- when in doubt, give the boy a sucker. 

March was a big month for Preston - he really started sitting up by himself and started to crawl and attempt to go up the stairs.

He started walking in August and really had it mastered by September. 

He likes balls and can throw and kick them. He loves to have a book read to him and it sometimes seems like that's what he wants all day long.
