13 months!

Twelve months ended with a bang!!! Clapping, dancing, high-fives, drinking through a straw, climbing up the slide, and up and down the stairs-hands and feet style!


Tank loves Dada's hats. He signs and says hat and wants to wear them all! He has been mimicking me with the broom and using the wipes to clean up! Such a smart cookie!! He is getting on and off the couch on his own. We go to the park a lot and is now going down the slide sitting up, facing forward! He pretends he is on the phone and talks to the phones or remotes in his baby babbles!!! Cracks me up!

We went to Tank's first Hampden-Sydney homecoming game. Tank met the mascot, Tiger! It was quite a hot day even though the skies look like it would storm any second. Aunt Kristin and Uncle Pat brought along Gus. Tank got a good ride on Gus' back!! We had a grand time!

It was also Homecoming weekend at the Oakwood Church. Tank stayed home to nap during the service, but we made it in time for lunch! It was fun to see Theo and Meriwyn!

Aunt Trysta came to our house once last time before leaving for Germany. She and Tank played hard with the water hose!! He loved every second of it! We joined them at Lisa's house for a final goodbye dinner.

Tank loved eating his first waffle!!

Our neighbor's son also came over and played in the Garden cottage. It is fun to watch them interact with one another!
