11 Months Old!!!

James is upstairs asleep and when he wakes up he will be 11 months old.  It's his last month as a baby and I can't believe it.  I will snuggle him all 31 days and kiss his little face until he can't stand it anymore.  

He is a little snuggler.  I love it when he just comes over and rests his little head by yours.

Check this guy out!!  Searching the fridge for something tasty.

I still can't believe he climbed up into the fridge and started pulling stuff out!  Funny kid!

 He likes to drop stuff off the side of the couch, table, highchair, whatever.  

 Then he likes to look down at his work.

Here's another angle of his little game.

 He looks like such a big boy sometimes.  

Like when he's sitting at the kids' table eating pears.

 On Monday, the 10th, James took his first steps.  He always walks around the furniture so I decided to lure him away from the safety of the couch with an M&M.

 It totally worked!

 Sweet reward!

He was a natural!  

 James likes to crawl around and find things he can put his finger in.  (Luckily he's not too interested in sockets)  Here he is sporting a finger puppet.  He also likes to be close by when Ali is drawing with markers so he can stick the caps on his fingers.

The kids stood at the door watching their very first snowfall.

 I just love these two together!

 They melt my heart!

James, we love you more each day and love having you in our family! 

This is what my pictures look like, which is why I haven't journaled in forever.  Sad.  We'll figure it out.

James is 10 Months Old!!!

Yes, James did turn 10 months old!  And we did notice.  We were just on a plane that day, moving to our new home in Utah and it's been a bit hectic ever since.  We still have not found a couple things.  One of those things is the camera cord so that I can get some photos onto the computer.

I don't want to wait till that happens, because it could be never.  

 We LOVE this little guy so much and he is learning so many new things.  At 10 months old he is pulling himself up to stand and walking around using furniture or anything he can find to help himself stay up. 

He is still sweet as pie and calm as can be.  He laughs at almost anything Ali does and I love sitting back and watching them interact.  Can there be anything better than your babies laughing together?  I think not.  He is eating and sleeping really well.  He adjusted to his own room quickly and began sleeping through the night again.  Can I get an Amen?!  He loves cars and anything with wheels and makes a car noise with his lips as he pushes his cars around the house.
