Teague Update

Teague is almost 15 months now and is becoming more and more active by the day!! He makes us laugh and smile and is always learning new things. Here are just a few things about our little guy:
  • He is LOUD. It doesn't matter what he is doing, he seems to have one level and that is loud.
  • He has started to scream at us when he doesn't get his way.
  • He has learned how to throw things down the stairs over the baby gate.
  • He is infatuated with the garbage and loves pulling whatever he can grab out.
  • He doesn't like to play alone. He entertains himself in his room just fine as long as somebody is in the room with him.
  • He loves all books and magazines and looks at the Ensign over and over.
  • He only likes to have one thing on his high chair tray at a time. Anymore than one cracker, banana, bean...whatever it may be gets thrown on the floor.
  • He eats all foods that we have given him including cucumbers, tomatoes, frozen peas, etc. You name it; he eats it. The only thing we have found that he doesn't like is marshmallows.
  • He continues to sleep around ten hours every night without needing anything.
  • He now has 8 teeth. 4 on top and 4 on bottom.
  • He loves getting his teeth brushed and sucking on his toothbrush.
  • He loves to throw all of the laundry around, right after it has been folded.
  • He loves to bite things. We now have several toys that have had to be thrown away, and teeth marks on his crib and our TV armoire.
  • He is a night owl just like his mom. Bedtime is usually around 10:30 or 11:00.
  • It is quite a production to try and change his diaper. He is such a wiggle worm.
  • He likes to mimic us when we count...and it is so darn cute!!:)
  • He loves slamming doors- the microwave, cupboards, the dryer, the fridge, etc.
  • He loves music and likes to "dance" and wave his hands in the air when he hears it.
  • One of his favorite past times is emptying out his bottom drawer of clothes several times a day.
  • He loves to play catch and has a really good aim.
  • He likes to wrestle and be tickled and has started to try and tickle us underneath our necks.
  • He loves being outside, even when the wind is blowing so hard it's taking his breath away. He will still have a smile on his face!!:)
  • He likes to make a "cheezer" face and I am pretty sure that he has an under bite.
  • He likes waving bye-bye.
  • He has started acting shy around people he doesn't know, by tucking his chin down toward his shoulder. Within seconds they usually have him talking and smiling!!
  • He loves to skype and see grandma and grandpa.
  • He is very rarely sad or in a bad mood. Usually only when he is really tired and wanting to be put in his crib.
  • He puts both hands up in the air when we say "touch-down"
  • He loves looking at pictures of himself on the computer.
  • He puts a smile on our faces every time we see him and we love him more and more each day!!:)

It's so great that you have included all of these things to remember Teague at this age. As I've been going back over my blog so I can publish it, I keep coming across things Tyler used to do that I have completely forgotten about. (And it hasn't been all that long ago, either!) He's such a cutie!
