Jude is (as of yesterday) 11 months old! He is growing, growing, growing! And changing so much each day. He has started to pull up, to get into a sitting position on his own, and do a little normal crawling (although he still prefers the army crawl). He is loving eating less baby purees and more foods that he can feed himself. He pretty much eats anything (except on the few occasions where he is bored with something and decides to just start throwing his food out of his bowl and on the floor instead!). He still enjoys watching the girls and trying to get into their toys (or pull their hair, or basically whatever he can get his hands and mouth onto). One of his favorite things (and mine!) this month has been to point at things that interest him. He is particularly interested in smoke detectors, light fixtures, fans, trees, birds, etc....basically anything on the ceiling or in the sky. He cut a few more teeth this month, so he now has two on the bottom and four up top. He is starting to drop down to one nap per day, but I'm not ready for that yet so I'm trying to hang onto two naps, despite his protests! He also is really loving his daddy this month and wants his daddy to hold him whenever he sees him.
See below for some pics of our sweet boy - we love him so! (The last picture in this series shows what I think might be some curly hair coming!).
