11 months

Here is what the little guy was up to at 11 months!

He now says "Baaaaall" and "Uh-oh"  (Still loves any kind of ball, especially ones he can throw, kick, or put in his mouth.)  This makes Target a favorite shopping destination as they have big red balls out front.

I love this one, he was cracking up!!!!

Mom, can we please stop taking pictures.....cuz if I have to smile for ONE more picture.....

 

This month he really started using his walker.  One night we put him behind it and I think he did 20 laps around the living room.  Every time I tried to get him to stop, he started crying--even though his legs were collapsing from being so tired.  He LOVES to walk!

We've really noticed that he is using the "more" sign.  Of course it looks a little more like a clap, but he uses it none the less.

He's also likes things neat.  As you can see here, when he is finished with his food, he puts it all in the cup holder.  He doesn't like food just sitting on his tray.

Really enjoys "real" food as well.

Looks like K has already learned a few of Daddy's soccer moves.

And his Daddy's knack for computers.

He still growls when he sees something he likes.  He really likes things hanging from the ceiling in stores and such, which is awesome with all the holiday decorations around!  (it was Christmas time when I wrote this!)  We'll be walking through a store and he'll growl and point to some decoration he sees.

He got to spend some great quality time with Gmom, Gigi and Poppy over Thanksgiving when they came to see us. Reading his new book from Gmom.

He blows his nose whenever we do or when we put a tissue to his nose.  (I'm very proud since that's a skill some of my kindergarten kids don't have!)

Kaiden waited until everyone came to visit for Thanksgiving to climb up the step for the first time.  For some reason he really loves the dog's water bowl, which made a great incentive.

He had a great time pushing it around and splashing in the water.

Who me??

Bath time with Gigi after playing with dog's water bowl.

Pondering life with Poppy

 

He is such a snuggler.  He always has been, but now that he can move around it is so nice to see him scoot over to us and affectionatly head butt us.   He always leans in to give us love.  He's also getting better at "real" kisses, but we are almost always covered in slobber and occasionally still get a nice bite on the nose.

 

Ash and I enjoyed back rubs from Poppy while he was in town.

 

And Kaiden enjoyed nap time with Poppy.

 

K also enjoyed a little snuggly time with Gmom.

 

He also enjoyed playing with Gmom's dog, Deeogee.

Playing with Tante Ash.

And Uncle Kalum

 

For Thanksgiving we watched the traditional A&M vs. t.u. game.   Since the game was a little sad for all of us Aggie fans, the boys decided to play a little ball themselves.

 

K had some nice moves, I guess Poppy taught him well!

 

He imitates, or tries to, most anything we do.  My favorite is when we "bluhbluhbluhbluh" and he sticks out his tounge and does the same thing.  (For all those that don't understand "bluhbluhbluhblu," see us for a demonstration.  ;)
