11 Months Old

Oh my, 1 month to the big first birthday.  Yikes!  As everyone says, its flown by and we've loved every minute!

He looks like a giant now!

At 11 Months, Cason is:

• Eating all kinds of table food, pretty much anything I put in front of him.  He really likes pancakes and grilled cheese sandwiches and apparently likes carrots better than green beans or lima beans (he picked them all out of his veggie medley tonight).  Banana's and Blueberries are his favorite fruits.  And when he's had little tastes of ice cream or sorbet he's wanted more, more, more so we have to hide/finish it quick.  Pulled pork is his favorite meat.
• Crawling all over the place and fast.  (Thus the awful pictures this month). We can't turn around for 5 seconds without him having moved all the way across two rooms.  He's also really exploring the rest of the house (not just the living room and kitchen).
• Pulls up on everything and will "walk" along the table or couch if he REALLY wants something.
• Still loves bath time but not so sure about the bubble maker
• Still absolutely loves getting in bed.  He kicks and smiles and snuggles his giraffe and Pooh bear and 99% of the time he goes right to sleep.
• Drinks 3 bottles of formula a day with juice and water between bottles.
• Drinks from a sippy cups and a straw cup
• Laughing, big belly laughs, especially at daddy.
• Claps his hands and will give high five with a little encouragement.
• Loves to "drive" with his little car toy.  He knows how to push all the buttons.  His favorite is the one that makes the horn noise. 
• Knows what button opens and closes the garage door and reaches for it every time we come in the house
• Generally obsessed with things that have buttons and electronics (phone, computer, remote control)
• Can crawl up stairs
• Loves his jumperoo more now than ever... working on those leg muscles!
• Loves to listen to and dance to music.  The other night a girl was singing the national anthem before a basketball game and Cason stopped what he was doing to listen.

I could go on and on but that's a pretty good summary.  I'm in full party planning mode now!

Here are the rest of the attempts to get good pictures tonight and some giggles with daddy.
