11 months old

Baby Z is 11 months old today.


New things he's saying...
uh, oh
baw-k
lots of other babbles

New things he's doing...
nods his head to say yes
learning to "give 5"
does sign language for "more" and "all done"
his second tooth broke the surface a few weeks ago
started crawling a few days after he turned 10 months old
pulls up to standing by himself ALL THE TIME

And he loves...
to dance by bopping up and down with music.
being jiggled, tossed up in the air, tickled and turned upside down.
bonking you on the head with his forehead & laughing about it.
bananas (he tried them for the first time today).

Daily details...
naps twice a day (around 9:30 a.m. and 2 p.m.) and usually naps a total of 3 or 4 hours.
recently got an earlier bedtime (now 7:30 p.m.) and sleeps until 6:30 or 7 a.m. most mornings.
wakes every 2 to 3 hours at night. (I am exhausted and we are working on this!)
eats 2 meals of baby food (purees) and some Puffs for snack. I planned on doing baby led weaning (baby eats small pieces of whatever the rest of the family eats - no purees) when he started solids. He was not interested. The only finger food he really likes is banana.

    2 bottom teeth (boy are they sharp!)                              He LOVES to stand.
 

Beautiful day

The weather was beautiful earlier today, so I took the boys to the park. Here are some photos...

Ready to get out of the car & HAVE FUN!


Tiny driver


Slide



Baby Z was not impressed with the swing UNTIL Big Bro started pushing him


Saying "who who" so he could hear his echo in the tunnel


Super duper happy boy
