Meet Beckham, the coolest dude. A true California boy with Mediterranean charm!
He turned 15months a week ago and okay, his personality is starting to break through quickly.
He is feisty, determined, vocally strong, playful, confident, sweet, carefree, and a love ball. Especially to his mama. But loves his daddy fun time too.
He won’t let his sister or anyone mess with him, or take something from him, no matter how old they are, but will laugh, play and love you unconditionally if you play your cards right.
His passions are motorcycles, cars, trash trucks and construction sites. In that order.
He RUNS everywhere he goes now, and I simply can’t keep up. We are active ALL day long!
His schedule is the following now, always flexible and following his lead:
7am wake
730a breakfast
10a snack
1130am nursing
12pm - 2pm nap
2pm lunch
4pm snack
6pm dinner
7pm bath
730pm nursing
8pm bedtime
He has been waking often lately with a mix of growth & teething. Last week, he literally woke up randomly wanting to nurse SO much. I’m always open and follow his lead in this sense too, my mindset is that if he suddenly wants to nurse more than usual at night he has a reason (not enough food that day & needs more nutrients, or is growing and needs more nutrients, or is teething and needs comfort: any of those those reasons, nutrition or emotional needs, are SO important to me!). Anyhow, literally after a few of those nights of frequent wakes to nurse, I realized he had grown so much: he could reach the door knobs, the car seat straps were small and shoes didn’t fit. Mamas: listen to your babies, they know what they need!
Love you B, but slow down. I can’t keep up!
