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!
