Anson is 11 months old!

I am a couple days late here, but little A is 11 months old! This year has gone quickly, but I am also just excited for him to be this age because it is a lot of fun. The best part is how close Grady and Anson are now. I can'teven convey how cute it is. They ADORE each other and now just play all the time. All Grady wants to do is "crawl around with Anson", so he asks to do it non-stop! I am so excited to see how they will be as they get bigger and can do even more together. It's awesome.

So what else is new with Anson?

He is cruising now! It just started in the past couple days - he will go from the couch to the train table and back. He will also edge down the couch holding on. He's still a sort of slow crawler - he "plods".

His sleep is quite good - 12 hours at night and 2 naps (each 40-90 minutes). He goes to sleep on his own with a binkie and a lovey. He just learned how to turn his soother on, and he really likes that.

He still likes to eat a lot. He really likes meat. He also likes his little baby cookies and gets super excited when we ask him if he wants a cookie.

He is still "talking" a lot, but he doesn't really say much with meaning (that we can tell) other than Mama and Dada.

He is very long (over 30" - about 95th%) and about 50th% on weight (he's about 21 pounds).

Here are a couple recent pictures...

He has recently started going on the baby swings!

So he is my little baby doll - so much fun and doing very well!
