Life Goes On

Man, time just keeps ticking, ticking, ticking, ticking...into the future.... (haha, I couldn't resist)...but, for real, things have been good, uneventful, exciting, everything all at once lately!

We've been having some great times just hanging out together, playing with toys, reading books, and trying new foods. These days it seems Burkley does something new every single day. This week he's been imitating us more and more, whether it's silly noises, animal sounds, new words like "nigh-nigh" (when going to bed or nap), new signs (today he did "potty" for the first time), or just being all around silly, he really is a hoot. He's been climbing up and down our staircase independently too...which he's sort of been able to do for awhile now, but we've always hovered over him. Now, he does it when we're not looking...and is just fine.

He's also taken to screaming at the top of lungs for now apparent reason, with a huge grin on his face, like he's trying to scare us or something. Pretty hilarious.

This was taken mid-scream

He was helping unpack the Christmas decorations and I could actually trust him not to break anything. Though, he did take a bite out of a candle...

 And yesterday, he enjoyed his first peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

So, while there's nothing terribly exciting to update you all on, I'm still thrilled to report that he is just as cute, sweet, and hilarious as ever. Being his mom just keeps getting better every single day!
