11 Months

Jack is 11 months now. That is quite surprising for all of us. Time seems to be flying by.

11 month update:

Jack's favorite toy is his sock. He rips one or both off his feet as soon as he can. He then totes around one sock for the rest of the day, chewing on it. He regularly crawls with one toy in his hand, making a loud smack sound everywhere he goes. He can stand on his own and cruises around furniture, but doesn't seem to have much interest in walking. Which is fine by me, hope he takes his time with that.
He likes to eat bananas, yogurt, cheerios, waffles, broccoli, and bread. We are trying to get him to branch out, but he's not interested.
He is a very happy baby and is getting to that stage where he likes me best, that's my favorite stage. If I carry him around on my hip he is as happy as can be.
His first birthday is just around the corner and I am at a loss. I am not a party planning person at all. I kind of hate it. A lot.
We'll see what I decide to do for my birthday baby. Since his birthday is right around Halloween, it makes it that much more enticing for me to have a celebration. I really love Halloween and all things pumpkin.

Happy 11 months Jack. Here is some floor smacking footage.

So adorable!! And I'm so glad you said that about loving it when they only want mom- I've always secretly loved that stage, but felt bad about it:).

Aw, it makes me so excited to have a baby again. :)

Wow! A one-socked smacker! You just don't see that very often.

I miss you baby Jack! Johnny calls him on the phone regularly.
You should have his birthday party be a costume party where every knocks on the neighbors doors and asks for candy... you could make it a tradition, try it on the 31st and I think it will be a huge success!

You're the best mom ever in that state. I can't say just ever because Jessamyn reads these blog comments. And then I've got my mom to worry about too. Man it is so difficult to give a superlative comment.
