One of my New Year's Resolutions is to celebrate the achievements of my boys. So, for today's Show and Tell, I'd like to present my little guy, Sh.awn, sitting up on his own! I am so very proud of him.
Those of you who may be new here might not be overly impressed with a 14 month old boy sitting up (holy cow, 14 months old!), but let me tell you that my little Sh.awn Bon has been through more in his year of life than most people have EVER been through.
He has shown his strength and determination each and every day. He is a fighter. He is a miracle.
And I love him.
So, let's celebrate the first achievement of the new year!
Hm. A new book. Let's have a looksy.
Good Night Moon is pretty good, mommy!
Doesn't the look on his face say something like, "What's all the fuss about, mom?"As a little aside, I have posted that we are having teething fun. I think Sh.awn is working on 4 - 5 teeth right now (better late than never).
I strongly suspect that Sh.awn may have hereditary supernumerary teeth. Now that I see how they are growing, I am thinking that at least three of his front teeth will eventually be diagnosed as such. One bottom tooth looks to be okay, but really the only way to tell is through x-rays, and we're not considering doing that for a while.
Anyway, the condition comes from my dad's side of the family. Dad didn't have them, but several of his eleven siblings did, and my oldest brother had three sets of canine teeth. (the one that shares a birth date with the boys. he was always the odd one, too!) I did not have supernumerary teeth either.
We shall see if it does end up that Sh.awn has them, although my intuition is telling me yes. If he does, we will just wait and see what they do over the next several months. It may mean some extra time at the dentist in the long run. Doesn't that sound fun?
Can't we just have a boring, non-eventful life here? Is that too much to ask? Jeez.

Think of all of that money he'll score from the toothfairy !! NICE !
Look at him sitting up just as cool as can be.
"Just reading my book mom."
He is doing awesome.
Way to go Sh.awn!!!
I discovered this weekend that both of the kids are cutting bicuspids. It would explain the runny noses, the bad moods, the temper tantrums.....
I would gladly go two weeks with no sleep if there was some way for all their teeth to come in at once.
YAAAAAY, SHAWN! You totally ROCK! I am very proud of you and I can't wait to celebrate more of your many achievements to come! Muuuahhh! XOXO
He looks great! You should boast more, your children are adorable.
Hi Stacie, I am so happy to hear about all of Shawn's....and Jason's...accomplishments! Oh, and the Tylenol thing? I now have to hide the medicine bottles because Kyla will point and beg me for it :)
Smiles, Karen
Don't feel bad. My daughter says "aaah" whenever she sees Tylenol, or will run off with the bottle if she can get her hand on it. LOL!
Love the pictures as always!
Beautiful picture of Shawn and you really made a good resolution. My guess of Shawn's words - 'Do I have to read this book one more time, Momma?'
Hey, does he wear specs, or you made him put them for the snaps?
Guess, somebody's set for a visit to a dentist!
