What have we been up to this month? Lots! You have 3 teeth and are working on your 4th and maybe your 5th. You love brushing your teeth in the morning and before bed (hope this lasts).
You are crawling all over the place! I have to race you to the dog bowls before you splash and dump water all over the place... Your favorite activity! You follow me wherever I go. You also love chasing your pups around at times, though you have gotten a bit irritated by playing tug-o-war with Gracie because she always wins. You have also just started to love being chased by daddy and I... you have this adorable look when looking at us over your shoulder, like, "come getttttt me..." I can't get enough of it.
I cannot believe how adamant you are about what you want. I always knew (since your breechment) that you would be stubborn, but oh my goodness... I had no idea how strong willed you would be! You have your ways of doing things and ways of being held and you definitely know what you want. And what you want lately is me. You whine when I'm not holding you or sitting right beside you. Granted, you did have your first fever this last week but you have been out of control clingy for the last few weeks. I will miss this someday.
You absolutely hate being told "No", you absolutely know what it means and you either ignore me or you sit your bum down and start crying.

Sleeping is another battle we are battling and I'm really not sure what to do about it. You're on my chest, sleeping as I'm typing this on my phone!
You are not very excited about eating anymore. I have a hard time getting you to eat protein. You still love green things, fruit of all kinda, and sweets (just like Mom and Dad).
We are getting so excited for your birthday! We have a big surprise for you in the making! There's so many people that can't wait to watch you dig into your cake and sing you "happy birthday" (I know I'm one of them)!
We love you so much, Goose! I never knew I could feel this kind of love for anyone... you are my everything and I will always, always love you more than you know!
