Sweet baby Rhodes will be ONE this week! His life is such a gift to our family and I want to remember so many special things about this season of his life.
Rhodes is in mostly 18 month clothes and size 4 shoes. He wears size 5 diapers. He could probably wear a size 4, but Palmer sleeps in size 5s and it just makes it easier for them to share.
Rhodes still loves his bottle and honestly I'm not in a rush to transition away from it. I will start transitioning to whole milk soon, so hopefully that will be an easy transition for him.
He is pretty much refusing any baby food at this point and prefers finger foods. Most mornings all three boys eat scrambled eggs for breakfast. Rhodes also enjoys biscuits, toast, cheerios and bananas for breakfast. Some of our go-to lunch and dinner options are applesauce squeezies, deli meat, cheese, strawberries, tortillas, pasta, mac and cheese, and veggie straws.
Rhodes is still taking a morning and afternoon nap when we are home. He's not great at napping on the go, so he does sometimes miss the morning nap. We rarely miss the afternoon nap because Palmer still naps and Beau has rest time. Rhodes almost sleeps through the night. He is usually up between 4:30 and 4:50. I know I should just let him cry, but I just can't do it yet. So for now, I get up and give him a little bottle and then he will sleep until close to 7:00.
Rhodes still crawls a little, but he is mostly walking these days. It is so sweet and just a miracle to watch him grow and change every day. He mostly just baby babbles but he definitely says "hi" very clearly and he waves and says hi to everyone we see. He loves to wave and clap. He can follow a few commands such as dance and kiss. If he hears the word "kiss" he makes the cutest little kiss noise ever!
Rhodes loves his brothers so much and is happy to play with them all the time. One of Rhodes' favorite activities is bath time and he will play as long as you let him.
We love you so much Rhodes! Your life is such a gift!
