Wow, Brayden turns 14 months today, and what an awesome month it has been!
Some Updates:
Clothing Size: 18 to 24 months
Diapers: Size 5 (during the day) and Size 6 (during the night)
We have been having some issues with Brayden filling up his nighttime diapers and leaking through to his clothes and sheets. So now have to use Size 6 diapers at night and put an extra diaper liner inside of them. For now this seems to be working. We still have a few small leaks from time to time, but much better than the issues we were having before!!!

Doctor Stats:
No doctor's appointment this month, but I am guessing Brayden weighs about 25lbs.
Some "new" things from the past month:
-Brayden is doing great at walking now and with his shoes on too! No running yet, but I am guessing that will be any day now. Brayden is still a little unstable at times, but mostly only when he gets going really fast and then looses his balance.
-We have been working on teaching Brayden to climb/slide down off the couch, our bed, and the stairs. It is going pretty well, but we still have to watch him closely. It is too cute to watch Brayden slide off our bed on his belly...he just gets so tickled with himself, like he is so proud of what he just did. However, Brayden still has no concept of heights, or maybe it is just that he has no fear!! If given the chance, Brayden would walk/crawl head first right off our bed, the couch, or stairs.
-Brayden is understanding pretty much everything we say these days and I just love it! Although his listening may be selective at times, he knows what we tell/ask him to do and it is amazing to watch and see.

-Brayden's vocabulary now includes the following words: dada, dad, nana (for my mom and banana), baba (for Bailey), yes, not, cheese, bath, hot (new this week), hat (new this week), and dee (for anything he is pointing to and wants). Although Brayden has said mama a few times, it is stilllll not a regular thing. I know one day he will be saying mom all the time, probably so much so that there will be a passing moment when I wish he couldn't say mom. However, right now I wish he would use it more!!!
-A few new things...Brayden loves to lay back in the bath and splash his legs. We are thinking about looking into swim lessons this winter. Brayden also recently learned where his belly and toes are. He also learned to open/close the garage door this month and loves to push the button and see it open or close. We are still working on teaching Brayden to say that he is one/hold up his finger. He laughs and loves when we say it, but he doesn't seem to have much interest besides that. Oh and if Brayden wants to go outside and play, he now goes over to the back door and attempts to put his shoes on. Haha, it is too cute to watch!
-This month, Brayden is loving the following things: his IPOD/music, his books, his little people toys, his toy laptop, playing with Bailey, going for walks, his Milk cup, and pretty much anything involving being outside...especially his coupe car, the slide, and his Spiderman bat (not sure why...he has nooo idea who Spiderman is).

-Although he is now voicing his opinion and has his picky moments/days, Brayden still continues to be a good eater for the most part! Brayden's favorite foods right now are probably his milk, yogurt, cheese, carrots, broccoli, pizza, spaghetti, and yogurt melts.
Sleep habits:
-Wake time is around 7:30ish
-One nap a day around 12:30pm and usually sleeps for 2+ hours.
-Bedtime is 7:30 to 8pm
-Brayden still sleeps on his side or tummy 99.9 percent of the time.
