One Year Old

Emerson Joseph is one year old! Woo Hoo! Here are the things Emerson can do a year later:

  • Walk! Emerson started walking a week before his first birthday. Now he walks pretty much nonstop.

  • Enjoys brushing his teeth.

  • Likes to turn light switches on and off.

  • Knows some of his routines and the order things happen. Especially when it comes to bedtime.

  • Eats a lot of table foods. Has trouble with the texture of real fruits and vegetables.

  • Loves any form of a potato.

  • Feeds himself by hand and is starting to like to hold a spoon.

  • Loves to drink out of an open mouth cup but is getting better with a sippy cup.

  • Has started drinking cows milk and seems to like it.

  • Emerson is getting his 9th tooth.

  • Sleeps through the night 98% of the time.

  • Loves music and likes to dance.

  • Continues to be pals with Gus. He likes to pet him and give him hugs. He also tries to "share" Gus' bed and toys.

  • Is obsessed with dogs! He points them out when they're on things he sees while we're shopping.

  • Can now say: Dada, Mama, Dog, Gus, Ball and This.

  • Is babbling more and more.

  • Can recognize things and some people and point them out when asked.

  • Gives kisses when you ask him to.

  • Knows when he's being funny, can be quite the little ham when he knows you are laughing at him.

  • Likes to put his clothes in the hamper.

  • Will point to things he wants or where he wants you to take him.
We can't believe what a difference a year makes. Our little man is so big!
