13 months

Busy as a little bee!  Turning one year old is like being in the fast lane!  I am learning so much and exploring the world around me like a maniac!  Here are some fun things I have been able to accomplish this month:

- crawl under peoples legs when they are propped up on a table.

- climbing onto low standing chairs and on top of people

- patting people on the back when they hug me or snuggle with me.

- put my hands upward when someone asks me, "What is that?"

- bounce while sitting

- put my fingers in the holes of CDs

- stomp in place when I am excited

- dumping a package of markers and putting them back in the case(Mommy can get me to eat more while I do this because I am concentrating so hard on the task at hand).  I also do this with the contents of anyone's wallet.

- try to snap my fingers

- sing along to songs on the radio(not on beat and very monotone!)

- points to people she knows when you say their names

- pretend to be an airplane flying(arms out behind me)

- can blow kisses when Mommy sings the Korean kissing song, and do the movements to Twinkle Star and San Tokki

- march

- shimmy from side to side

- can turn bottle caps and knobs(but not good enough to fully open anything!)

- clean with cloths or paper towels

- play in my new play kitchen(pretend to make soup and taste it)

- turn while pushing stroller or any push toy

- put coins in a piggy bank

- can understand words in Korean and English.  I learned the word head.  Can answer yes or no questions when asked

Food I have enjoyed include:

- eel

- other types of fish

- peanut butter

- honey graham crackers

- animal crackers

Big events during this month:

- Had a bad case of roseola.  I had a bad fever for like 4 days which was followed by a bad rash for 4 days.  I was SUPER grumpy and my parents were very patient with me, especially my Mama.  She was very worried about me because I lost my appetite and didn't want to drink anything.

- I fell off of the couch and went head first into the coffee table then fell onto the floor.  Mama was asleep and Dada was watching me.  He felt so bad!  I thought floor was a lot closer to my feet then it really was!

- Elmo Says is my favorite book.  I love when Dada reads it to me.  

- Halahbuji came over to babysit me by myself for the first time.  He took me to the park and let me eat whatever I wanted!
