11 months old

Let the countdown begin...

It's so hard to believe we are ONE month away from celebrating the first year of Ben's life! He has changed so much lately and is really starting to act and look a lot more like a one year old and A LOT less like a baby. However, HE'S STILL MY BABY!!!

Not too sure about all those homemade "E's."

Loves to look out the window!

Best GIGGLE ever!!!!

- 10 ½ months cut top incisors and 3rd tooth on bottom (this one was a surprise!). Making for a total of 7 teeth. WOW!
- 5/25 started clapping by himself and on cue (super, super cute!)
- LOVES Mickey Mouse and lights up when he comes on TV
- Likes to play in the cabinets, dishwasher, dog bowls, and under the desk
- Climbs on EVERTHING
- Cruising the furniture really well
- Giggles when you help him walk around.
- Thinks our bath tub is a drum
- Likes to play on our bath scale
- Discovered the toilet paper and loves to pull it off the roll when you’re not looking
- Has eaten a few new table foods this month- green bean and cheese
- Had his first teething biscuit. We had been looking for the Gerber ones and they are always out of them at the store, so we finally bought the Earth’s Best kind.
- Entertains us with an adorable sound he makes when flapping his lips with his hand. He’ll copy you if you’re doing it. I think he knows it’s cuter when he does it!
- Loves to play hide-and-seek and peek-a-boo
- LOVES being in the water. The bath and pool are huge hits!!!
- Doesn’t like to ride in the car for very long. I think he’s bored. I think facing forward will be more enjoyable for him!
- Doesn’t stay still for diaper changes or when getting dressed.
- Loves to be naked!
- Gets his feelings hurt if you sit him down or take something from him. We call him “Our Sensitive Child.”
- Is scared by Owen’s squeals and letter sounds, especially the A sound (which Owen screams!)
- Is super busy and doesn’t sit still for too long.
- Is super, super sweet and loving! I am so glad he’s mine!!!!
