Walking

You have been cruising around on the furniture for awhile now and you have been doing really good at holding some one's hand and walking. But within the last week you have started trying to let go and walking on your own. Within the past couple days you have really started to walk more and more on your own. You are so cute, wobbling along, unsure if you should go or not. I know it will only be a matter of time and you are going to be chasing after Sam!

Eleven Months

No, no... say it isn't so... you cannot be turning one in just one month! You are just so darn cute these days! You started playing more with Sam (well I should say Sam has started playing with you). You just love your big brothers and eat up any attention they give you. You have learned how to climb lately. And you can climb on almost anything, even the toilet (see previous post). Even almost an entire flight of stairs (I was standing right there behind you)! You seem to also understand the word no. Not so much when I say it to you, because you laugh when I tell you no. But if you don't want something you shake your head no. It is so cute. And you really do seem to mean it! You still love to explore everything and are still into everything. You have taken a couple steps on your own and you can stand on your own for awhile. You can cruise along anything quite fast now too. I keep saying, it will be any day and you will be walking all over on your own. You did a great job for your first set of fall pictures! Something that I look forward to every year. I just can't believe that in a month you will be considered a toddler... but you will still be a baby to me. Lots more pics here!

Climbing on Anything!

You are certainly a climber... you can climb on almost anything you want to. In fact today you were playing the bathroom (a place I really try to keep you away from) and I turned around and there you were standing on top of the toilet. Of course, I pulled you down from there and within five seconds you have climbed back on top of the toilet again. I had to run and get my camera for this and snap some pictures! Thank goodness I had just cleaned the toilet that morning, otherwise YUCK! I can see that I am going to find you in a lot of places you should not be in!
