Dear Son, I'm not gonna lie I am getting kinda emotional writing this post. I cannot believe my little man is 11 Months Old (almost 11.5 Months as I am writing this post) So much has changed since the day we brought you home! Yikes! You are a short few weeks away from being 1 Year Old! 12 Months Old...this is crazy! I am so happy with how you are growing up and how you are becoming a little person, a little boy! Holy crud! I am so in Love with you, I feel so blessed to call you my Son! What are you up to these days? Well you are so close to walking...you LOVE walking. Daddy and I practice with you every night with standing and taking steps! You do NOT want to stand for the life of you! haha! You just want to walk, walk and walk! I do notice however when I am not paying attention you will be holding yourself up onto furniture and then let go and stand for a few seconds, when you feel like you are gonna fall backwards you grab the furniture again. So I am proud of you for practicing that on your own. But you will crawl up to anyone (seriously anyone around us) and climb their legs and grab their hands to walk with you. You love walking...and when people don't mind walking around with you...they become your best friend! You still love to crawl...and I can tell you want to walk so bad and it frustrates you sometimes. But when you want to get somewhere...you want to get there fast...so it's too cute watching you crawl as fast as you can crawl to get to your destinations ;) You Love eating...this is probably one of your favorite things to do. You love all foods that I give you (most anyways) and of course you still love nursing. You still nurse about 3 times a day and if you wake up at all during the night. My goal is to still try and nurse you up until a Year (maybe even a few months after) depending on when we are both ready to quit! (and I am comfortable about that...not everyone is...but I am and I think you are too, and that is all that matters) You are trying to move to 1 nap a day. So it is kind of messing you up a little. You wake up once in the night now because switching to 1 nap is a pretty big adjustment. So I hope we can figure it out soon, so you can get back into a great schedule! It is making it very easy for us to get out now though, because you are only 1 nap a day! We just recently switched you to your big boy seat! We bought a Britax Boulevard and so far we love it. The only thing I miss is when you fell asleep before in the bucket seat, we would just bring you inside wherever we were going. Now we have to take you out. Here is a pic of you enjoying a power snooze on our coffee date! You LOVE music, music is seriously your life! Anytime there is a chance for music you take it! Whether it's drumming, strumming on a guitar, using a drum stick with pots and pans and containers, tamborines, singing, dancing, clapping your hands. You LOVE it! It is so cute to see you, and seriously Son, you have amazing hand/eye coordination! So Proud of you!!! I think that is it for the update's, You love just hanging out, you are still the most chill, relaxed baby I know! It is great spending the days with you and watching you learn amazing new things. It is so fun to have you interact with me now and understand different things. You are so smart! We will be doing more outside adventures now too, like hanging out at ParentLink and stuff to. Going on more dates just the 2 of us, or with Daddy too if he's home! Not sure how much you weigh these days, but we will find out in a few weeks for your 12 Month checkup! We are moving this weekend to a bigger place, You will have tonnes of room to cruise around! I Love you my Son!
...following my dreams... -Cynthia
