Dear Nathan,
Where did my baby go? You and Zach are suddenly looking so much like toddlers! It makes me a little bit sad, knowing you're our last babies. I have tried to savor each milestone with both of you but life is so busy lately, I feel that lately it has sped by without me being able to appreciate a lot of the little things.
- You are walking! Like a pro, at that. You took your first step (actually several steps in a row) on May 17th and have been going non-stop since then, gaining confidence along the way.
- You still enjoy walking behind your push toy, even though you can walk on your own.
- You and Zach love playing in the toilet when someone leaves the bathroom door open and the lid up, much to my dismay. I make sure to wash your hands really well when that happens.
- You and Zach LOVE balls. You love to push them and chase them.
- You love watermelon.
- You have six teeth now. Teething has been rough.
- You usually sleep through the night! (Zach usually wakes up once and usually doesn't wake you up when he does, which I am grateful for.)
- You have lots of smiles to share.
- You love to babble - "dadadada..mama...nana..."
- You still wear your helmet but it shouldn't be much longer.
- You like to let us know how you feel, which can be good.
- We are noticing a little bit of red / auburn / copper in your hair and Zach's as well. My great grandmother (Genevieve Campbell) was a red head so maybe you got her genes.
- You are loved and adored.

You and Zach love the splash pad. |

And just like that, you're a toddler! Such a cute boy. |
I couldn't love you more. Love, Mom
