11 months

 

My oh my, this boy is 11 months old.  ELEVEN MONTHS OLD!  I can't believe...I mean really, time has flown by.  He is still such a joy to be around and loves every bit of life, until you put him down for a nap or bedtime.

 

 

 What's New:  He is clapping.  His first time was at dinner, when he was getting food.  I quickly had to grab a short video.  He is climbing up on the fireplace and crawling around.  He has only done this twice and it's not encouraged but he can now do it.  He is comfortably going up and down our step down to the living room and game room.  He has been reaching for others to hold him or go to others.  He also got to celebrate his first Christmas!  He was such a trooper traveling to all our Christmas locations.  He did great meeting Santa until the end, then the tears started coming.

Food: He is now eating pretty much what we are eating, of course cut into tiny pieces.  He drinks 8oz of milk in the morning before breakfast and then 7 oz the rest of the day.  He loves fruit and meat. 

Sleep:  Still doing great!  He goes to bed (doesn't like going to be AT ALL) around 7:30 and wakes up around 7.  During the break when we were both off, he started sleeping til 8ish.

Sizes:  He is 9-12 months and a few 12-18 months.  Just depends on the brand.  He is still in size 3 diapers. 

What I Love:  I feel like I say this over and over but I love how happy he is most of the time.  I mean really, he is so laid back and easy going.  He is just a happy kid.  I love how he gets excited to see us after we have been gone.  I love the relationship he has with is brother.  They can just sit and play.  I hope this friendship continues.
