Eleven Months!

You did so much growing up in the last month! I cant believe it. I watched you put yourself to sleep in your crib tonight just mesmerized by you. Just a few minutes ago you were this tiny incapable little baby and now you are a big beaming baby boy.

In true fashion of growing up really fast you decided to switch to bottle and formula this month. No more breastfeeding for you! I was a bit sad at first but it has made a few things so much easier...like letting mommy work out at the gym!

We took you swimming for your very first time at the YMCA (where no photography is allowed! what!?) At first you hated it, but after a bit of coaxing you in you didnt want to get out. Now when we go you have a blast!
(okay, so I stole a picture...SHH!)

Your current favorite snacks are Pirate booty, cheez its, strawberries, watermelon and cheddar cheese. You and I get along well on the snacking. Your favorite of all your favorites is definitely watermelon. Yum yum! Good thing its summer time.

We have been having a good summer so far, gotta keep Older brother and sister entertained! We took you to your first splash park, and we have been trying out all the parks in the area and even up north! You love to swing, and climb UP the slides. You are a crazy little dare devil!

We also took you to the circus! You were so amused you fell asleep 20 minutes in, good show ringling!

We have figured out, it takes you about 4-6 months to get comfortable enough with people to leave my arms and happily go into theirs. You are quite a mamas boy!

You do get VERY excited when you hear the sound of the skype phone call, because you know daddy is calling and you love talking to him.

You also started sleeping through the night in your own crib! A feat never really accomplished in this family before. YAY owen! You love to fall asleep listening to Scouts bedtime music.

One of your favorite new moves this month is clapping. You clap when you want food, when you're happy, when you want up. You clap clap clap all day long. It is the cutest thing in the world!

One of your favorite games this month is got your binky! I am glad you think I am so funny! You learned to shove the binky back into my mouth as well.

Saving the BIGGEST feat for last, do you know what you did Owen? You took your VERY FIRST STEPS!

We were casually hanging out with some friends in the living room when, boop boop boop! Off you went 3 whole steps. You surprised me so much I went WOAH! so loud that you startled and fell. We were able to get you to do a few more and luckily my friend caught it on video for us.

We are almost down to one year with you, It has been so much fun baby O. Well be seeing you in just a few weeks for the big ONE!
