Happy 11 months!

Our little boy is on the final countdown to one year old! Yey and boo-hoo! A mixture of emotions for his mommy, but how very blessed we are. He is doing so wonderfully well and is seriously the sweetest little guy. No one teach him how to cry because so far we are on a great roll!

Here are a few fun things about Weston at this age and stage:
He is SO quick at grabbing things (especially open baby food containers- eeek!)
He is so strong and loves when I stand him up to hold onto his crib or pretty much anything stable.
He can say da-da, ma-ma, ba-ba, la-la and lots of DEEP babbling.
He is getting up on all 4's and rocking, and rolling wherever he wants to go.
He still loves kindermusic and makes SO MUCH excited noise when we are there.
He can hold his bottle now, but will he is the question... with daddy, yes, with mommy he prefers not to and opens his arms as wide as possible so I have to hold it for him!!! stinker :)
He has started eating chunks of bananas and soft peas, crackers, and mum-mums.
He tried a little preview of cake at daddy's birthday and yes, he's a fan of chocolate.
He can pass a cheerio from one hand to the other with his fingers.
He laughs all the time- maybe it's because it's so easy to make laugh and we constantly do it!
He is so smiley when he's waking up :)
He still loves textures and is very gentle when feeling things, but to learn about something new he bangs on it.
He doesn't use teethers- just fingers :)
He has 6 teeth.
He adores his sister- she is great entertainment!
He is getting so big to still be rear facing in the carseat- his legs are squished against the back of the seat!
His favorite songs are "The Grand ole Duke of York", "Twinkle-twinkle", and "Love Somebody"

Oh, we love you Weston. You fill our lives with happiness and joy!! Happy 11 months!!
