11 Months

This is it, your final month as a baby! How are we here?! I truly feel like you were just a teeny tiny little baby curled up in my arms, but then again, at the same time, I don't quite remember what life was like without you here sweet boy. You are the perfect compliment to our sweet family, and the Lord has been so gracious in allowing us to have you as our third little one. Every day I wonder how I could love you anymore than I already do, and then my heart just continues to grow, and my love for you does too, every single day.

This month you have become so much more of a little boy to me, I look over and see you pulling yourself up on everything, standing, and can't believe how big you are getting. It is bittersweet. I love watching you explore, and learn, grow and follow your big brother and sister around as fast as your little legs will take you; but I can't lie and say I don't miss those days when slept on my chest.

You love to say mama and dada, and work so hard to say other things too. You are quiet the chatterbox when big brother and sister give you a chance to talk!

You still love baths, like LOVE them, and often crawl into the bathroom, stand up on the bath and yell baaaaaa. And the swing, you are OBSESSED! You love being outside, riding in your brother's pickup truck with him (it is the cutest thing in the world, and when we don't let you do that, you let us know how that makes you feel). You enjoy reading books, music/being sung too, playing trucks/cars/trains (anything that has wheels), crawling everywhere, eating, sleeping, balls, jumping in the jumper and on beds, animals, and are quite the mama's boy.

You get around everywhere so quickly and pull yourself up on everything (mighty proud of yourself too). I am so curious to see if you will be walking by your first birthday.

You are so sweet darling boy, a big time cuddler, and you know just how to make mommy and daddy melt over you. We treasure you, more than words could express and we pray fervently that the Lord would save your little soul, young, and that you would be used greatly for His glory. Happy 11 months little man, we can't wait to watch you grow!
