As Ann (Seth's mom) fed Norah tonight we marveled at her constant movement. Kicking her feet, putting her bib over her face, waving her arms, talking, leaning over the side of her chair, and on and on. I have been wondering how much of it is age versus personality, but Ann agreed with my latest thoughts on the subject - we have a busy body.
This is what Ann wrote about Seth at one year:
At 12 months Seth is a cheerful 1 year old. He still wants to hold on to something when walking but stands by himself for longer periods of time and can get himself to a standing position without holding on. He learned how to stack blocks this month and is adept at going up or down the stairs. He can also climb up on furniture and will take a book up with him to look at on the couch. He loves to rock in the little rocker that was his dad’s as a child. He has 7 teeth (4 up, 3 down) and eats what we do—esp. cake, cookies & ice cream, also yogurt. He sleeps longer during the day (1-2 hrs. morn. 1 hr. aft) and still sleeps 7-7:30 at night. He nurses only first thing in the morning. He tries to say “doggie” and “baby” but they still require translation. People comment what a happy, even tempered child he is. He weighs 22-6 and is 30”."
This weekend at Norah's birthday party (post on that to come soon) a friend's 11 month old sat on her mom's lap pretty much the entire time they were there. It didn't strike me at the time, but Ann reminded me of her tonight when I posed my question about age versus personality.
Seth and I better keep working out so we can keep up with Norah...
