11 Months!

Henry is 11 months old today.  He is growing like a weed and really letting his personality show.  Yesterday he went to an ear check up at the doctor (they are clear!) and they did a quick weight check.  He had his clothes on so I am sure this is slightly higher than his actual weight but it was 21 lbs 6 oz!  He weighed 18lbs 6 oz at his nine month appointment so this boy is packing on the weight!  He is pretty much off all baby food and either eats what we are eating or has things like chicken, cheese, and yogurt.  He recently moved up to the older baby room so he eats the food that school provides.

He is a master crawler and also pulls up and cruises the furniture.  He does walk behind his toys a little but prefers crawling.  He was pushing a little stool all around the doctors office though.  He is a complete wiggle worm which makes it hard to hold him sometimes.  He absolutely loves his brother (I think the feeling is mutual).  When we walk into Nolan's room in the morning his starts to kick his legs because he is so excited.

He can blow kisses and has been making little Indian noises a lot the past few days.  He has found his voice and likes to use it.  He happily yells every morning on our way to school.  We think he says the word "ball" correctly.  He likes to repeat "ma ma ma ma" but I don't think he is really saying "mama".

We finally (knock on wood) have a good sleeper.  It only took almost 11 months to get to this point, but I will take it!
