11 months!
Owen you will be ELEVEN months old tomorrow. I am still trying to figure out how the time went SO fast!
You are now walking, drinking whole milk out of a sippy, and climbing all over the place. You have grown up so quickly. Can you please SLOW down? Just a little?
You are such a busy little man, since you have been moving it tough to get you to sit down and eat ONE good meal. You don't care to much for your high chair unless we are letting you play with your food, and you only care to "play" with really messy things, otherwise you throw a fit at being strapped in. Luckily you only do this at home, and not at restaurants. :)
You weigh 19 pounds little one, that means if you want to turn your seat around when you turn one, you better get to eating- you have one pound to go, or you will be sitting backwards until your 15 month appointment.
On that note; when you are 15 months old you will become a BIG brother to a LITTLE BROTHER! That's right, you are going to have a little brother this coming fall! Mommy and Daddy are so excited for you to become a big brother, we no you are just going to love your little brother and set many GOOD examples for him to follow.
You are talking more and more each day. Words you like to say: DaDa(is your very favorite), MaMa(if you are tired or need some cuddles), No, Mo(more- you also sign this to us).
A few things you say that i think are just repeats for now: ni'ni'(night night- only after we say it) and ba ba(again after we ask if you want a bottle)
I am trying to break you of the bottle as we speak. You will take a sippy cup, and are drinking milk with no problems, UNTIL you are tired. You then only want a bottle, and I am keeping formula in your bottles, and milk only in sippy cups.... SO hopefully by your first birthday we will be done with all bottles. I have taken your pacifier away and you gave it up with no problems. I am so happy this went smoothly, because with another little one on the way I need you off pacifiers and bottles sooner than later, so you will have time to adjust before a little one is using those things.(we already say paci's and bottles are for babies... hoping you will "want" to be mommy's big boy)
We are leaving this week to head to Nashville to visit family and attend a wedding. We have decided to drive and stop half way a visit with friends. I am hoping that you do well in the car. We were just at the doctor yesterday because i was afraid you might have gotten your first ear infection, but luckily that was not the case. Instead the doctor believes your are cutting 4 more teeth.... FOUR... that whats they said... I can only feel one coming through on the bottom, when it pops through you will have 7 pearly whites... we will wait and see if three more are on their way?
Buddy boy you become more fun each day, we have been swimming in the big pool, in the little pool in in yard and you absolutely LOVE the water. You are fearless which scares me a little, but I am so happy you enjoy the pool. I look forward to many of summer spent there, making great memories.
Owen, your mommy and daddy love you more than words can say!
Next month we will be having a BIG celebration! JUST FOR YOU!
