Not because it's the 16th

I decided not to continue the monthly posts since Allen is past the year mark and just post events or moments. But, it's the 16th, Allen is 13 months old, and there are a few things I want to remember:
-he is sleeping through the night!
-he has cut at least 6 teeth in the last 2 weeks
-he is walking all the time, everywhere
-he knows not to eat cheerios that have fallen on the floor after breakfast - if I'm watching he picks them up and hands them to me, but if he thinks I'm not watching, he pops them in his mouth
-today he was obsessed with his ball popper toy
-also today when I was getting on to him for throwing the Weebles, he smiled, kissed me, and continued playing... it totally worked. I wonder how much he is going to get away with using that trick.
-he still loves eating and going outside to play
-our only struggle lately is to get him to drink milk - it's been over a month without success
-Christian and I are absolutely enamoured with him!!
