There are so many things that make Cole Roger Denham the ONE and ONLY Cole Roger Denham. As we approach his first birthday which is next week (HOLY COW!!), here are just a few of my favorite traits about him.
#1 His toothy million dollar smile
#2 The way he looks over his shoulder as he scurries towards danger with the "catch me if you can" twinkle in his eye.
#3 His utter glee at watching Tucker do anything
#4 His love of looking out the front and back door with both hands pressed up against the glass
#5 The fact that he knows when I lower him from his highchair after dinner that it is bath time. He hears the running water and heads towards the bathroom as I attempt to get his messy clothes off.
#6 That very much like his mom, he is way cranky after a nap until fully awake.
#7 The manner in which he explores and plays independently all the while very aware of when I enter or leave the room.
#8 When the tension in his little body eases, his breathing deepens and serenity takes over his face as I hold and rock him in the quiet of his nursery
#9 The determination and intensity in his expressions as he perfects any new skill
#10 The infectious giggle he has when he finds something unexpectedly funny
#11 His ability to beam at me with his contagious smile as I attempt to dissuade him from any number of dangerous situations with a stern "NO"
#12 The fact that his tone and inflection as he babbles is so appropriate in context that I am just waiting for a full sentence to come tumbling out!
#13 The fearless wonder he exudes as he views life from his unfiltered vantage point.
