And he ran this morning! When I was leaving at daycare, he ran after me.
He fell asleep at daycare on a cot, and Trish did it by vibrating the cot.
When geddy fell asleep last night, he only slept for 5 min. Then he was up until midnight. And woke up at 9:15, so I was super late for work.

Geddy walked 21 steps today! I guess he's officially a walker now.
He fell asleep at 8:45 pm. Now I should be doing the dishes, but instead I'm drinking a glass of wine and looking at the internet. Going to look into a 529 and an account for Geddy.
I can't believe how stormy it is right now. It's rained a ton the last 3 days.

Asleep at 8:55 pm, and only had one 30 min nap today.
Today, he decided that he wanted to walk, so practiced a lot. And he discovered how to pick his nose.
Had his 12 month checkup, and weighs 25 lbs and is 30.75 inches long, both 75th percentile.
Had his mmr and variacella shot, so hope he sleeps okay tonight.
He now does 3 signs, milk, all done, and eat. He tries to imitate other signs, but they don't look like the sign at all.
