11 months

Oh Maximilian! 11 months old... Mama's so sad that you are about to become a toddler instead of a baby.

You've been taking 2-3 steps the past couple of days, but only between Mama and Papa. You're still cautious of letting go.

You have been able to wave for a month or two now, I love it. You can also high five!

You love playing peek-a-boo and will hold things in front of your face to hide behind.

You started saying "dada" now. You say a lot of sounds, but a lot of the time you say something that sounds like "book".

On that note, you love books. You will sit in your room by your bookshelf and flip through pages for almost an hour sometimes. You also bring your books to Mama or Papa to read. You're a genius (like your mother)! :)

You now have 4 teeth! Front top and bottom 2. Hopefully we won't have to worry about teething for a little bit.

We're still breastfeeding, but Mama is about ready to be done. I just started my new job as a nurse and I had forgotten how much of a pain pumping is. You're now 18 pounds 2 oz, 28.5 inches. I'll write another post about weaning soon.

You're still waking up probably twice a night, but now you're napping better. Maybe even too well. You take 2 at least one hour naps.

As always, Mama loves you more than anything!

Wordless Wednesday: A Hard Day

3rd Tooth!

On 5/8/12, Max got his front bottom left tooth!

He got his second tooth on 4/22/12, his top front right.

His first tooth was on 3/28/12, his bottom front right.

And I'm pretty sure that his top front left is soooo close to popping through, if it is not popped through already. He won't let me look in his mouth.
