11 months!

Look at that tiny Superman next to our big 11 month old boy! It's getting trickier to get these shots as Nate just needs to be on the move every second. He's either pulling himself up on things, semi-walking along them, scooting around, knocking things over or trying to shake them - because that makes a hilarious sound, of course. He continues to be super chatty and opinionated and has been trying out some new laughs. And he's eating whatever we put in front of him. Smarty pants Cinnamon has learned to patiently wait underneath the high chair when turkey meatballs are on the menu. When he's up in the morning he's definitely up and wants to explore, which usually means we have to tag team to keep him from bopping his head on something as we're both trying to get ready for work. He can kind of wave and almost learned how to blow kisses, but gets distracted by his fingers being near his mouth and chews on them before he gets to blowing the kiss. But he has figured out how to give kisses with his mouth - he just hasn't realized you should pucker up rather than do an open-mouth drool swipe on Momma and Daddy's cheeks. And as you can see, his hair is as red as ever, his feistiness is really starting to come through, and his giggles are the best sound ever. Next month he'll be one, so we better get our baby snuggles in while we can :)
