11 Months Old


I have to pinch myself… Wesley, sweet, tiny, baby Wesley is WEEKS away from turning ONE!!!!! How can that be? How is it that my little boy is growing up so quickly? He is 11 months now, and there is no stopping him. Today he took two steps, paused and took four more before plopping over. He thinks it’s wonderful and will clap for himself whenever he is happy or proud of what he has done. He grins like a cheese ball and laughs at his sister all day. He has 5 teeth (the sixth is coming). He is SUCH a momma’s boy it’s not even funny (almost frustrating at times… if he weren’t so cute about it). He has added a few more words… momma, dada, ba (for ball… which he is OBCESSED with), mo (for more), do (for dog) and anything else is still referred to with grunts and reaching. He loves to reach up and grab his ears when things are funny/excited, to bury his face in anything soft (especially our fluffy couch blanket or Mallory’s stuffed animals and cuddle into my chest and suck his thumb when he gets sleepy. Peek-a-boo and ‘find the ball’ are his favorite games, followed very closely by ‘catch’. He (and Mallory) are soooooooo perfect, they are making us doubt if we want more (why mess with perfection)?????
Oh and if you are wondering what happened to his forehead and left eye… he got in a fight with the garage step… it won.

I just love him! He is such a cutie pie and I can't believe he is already almost a year old!! I think this is about the time that Xavier became obsessed with balls too. Boys and their balls! :-)

I cannot believe he is 11 months! A year went by too quickly. He is so handsome and I love hearing all about him and his progress and love for life. Why not have more when you make them so great~!!!! ;)
