I&#8217;ve been pointing to my belly and calling it &#8216;baby&#8217; and I think he&#8217;s picking that up too &#8230; slowly. <\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>he is running around confidently, and lately we see him trying to climb the stairs like we do (not crawl up them) though he is still way too little for that. He&#8217;s learnt how to spin my computer chair around, when I&#8217;m in it, and he wants a hug. He holds a pen well (for a 13 month old) and can scribble on the scribble board we bought him for his birthday. He used to just chew the pen a bit, but nope, he will scribble a bit now. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/traceytakesphotos\/3077657547\/\" title=\"peekaboo!! by traceytakesphotos, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3269\/3077657547_90318ae91a.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"374\" alt=\"peekaboo!!\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>he&#8217;s playing peek-a-boo with the curtains and us alot &#8211; which reminds me to check that all the curtain rods are sound because he loves to take the curtain with him too .. he loves to dance and bounce on our bed. his smile and his eyes make my heart skip and my eyes well up. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/traceytakesphotos\/3078489120\/\" title=\"Untitled by traceytakesphotos, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3295\/3078489120_c3286b1a27.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>there is no part of my son that I do not find intriguing and that I do not love. <\/p>\n<p>especially, his tummy. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>i&#8217;ve decided, i&#8217;m no writer. and while i can talk and talk and talk about my beautiful Jasper, i don&#8217;t think i could keep up with the monthly newsletter anymore, so i&#8217;ll just post about him whenever i feel like, which is probably going to be more than monthly now \ud83d\ude1b my beautiful boy is [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1167","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-jasper"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/sh1ft.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1167","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/sh1ft.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/sh1ft.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/sh1ft.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/sh1ft.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1167"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/sh1ft.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1167\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/sh1ft.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1167"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/sh1ft.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1167"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/sh1ft.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1167"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
