Has It Really Been 11 Months????

Today our baby boy turns 11 months old! It is so hard to believe...time simply flies! Cole is very busy these days doing everything from clapping and waving to digging in the kitchen cabinets! He really loves playing with other children and, of course, Mason. He is babbling more and more. Cole can walk around the furniture and can stand by himself for about 40 seconds. He is still enjoying his food...he eats basically anything and everything. Right now his favorites are pears, bananas, peas and corn. Cole still hates all kinds of pasta (crazy kid, I know!). He is nursing 4-5 times a day depending on what he has going on...if he has something else on his mind I cannot get him to sit down with me to eat! Cole can hold his own sippy cup and drink from it. He can also drink from a straw. Cole can crawl up stairs and then back down again. He loves music and loves "bouncing" to it. If you ask Cole to hand you something (for example: can you please hand me your cup?) he will do it. He loves to help us pick things up - but then he usually wants them back!!! If you ask Cole where something is he can point to it (for example: where are your shoes? where is Mason?). Cole loves when we chase him and if he hears the phrase "I am going to get..." he assumes it will end with "you" and he takes off crawling and laughing! Cole is still sleeping well - from about 8 pm to 6-7am. He is taking 2 naps every day. It seems like there is something new each and every day which is so much fun! I hope you enjoy the video - it was hard to get him to pay attention with food sitting in front of him....and please disregard my "singing."

Unbelievable that he is already 11 months! That 1 year birthday will be here before you know it. D-Man likes spaghetti, but that is the only pasta he will eat. Say macaroni and cheese and he immediately tells you, "No thanks!" I thought all kids loved mac and cheese?
