11 months!

This is slightly late...our sweet boy will be 1 year old in 2 weeks! We can hardly believe it!

By at home weighing, he is still around 23 pounds. We can tell he is getting taller because his 18 month footie pj's are now fitting his feet and not hanging off. We had started him in those a little early because they fit his chunky monkey thighs better :-)

He is walking more and more every day and has stood himself up on his own a handful of times. No longer is he content in his jumpy (which is my go to place for him when I need to take Sammy our or run upstairs for a quick minute.) Maybe I'll part with it on his birthday :-( He's also become a bigger fan of the paci lately...not sure when I'll take that away.

Nate is a real social boy with no stranger anxiety yet. The other week at Gymboree he even crawled across the big mat, into the lap another mom (whom he had never met) and gave her a big hug. He has even been more clingy with us lately, wanting to be held more and snuggling before bedtime-complete with the cutest little sighing sound you have ever heard. I need to try to get that on video.

We're looking forward to warmer days and getting outside! He picked up his first stomach bug and was sick last night, but seems to be better today. It's a cold day here though, so we don't mind staying in for a pajama day.
