11 Months!!

Here we are - one month away from a year old!  I know I say this every month, but it still amazes me how fast this time has gone by.  I tell Corey all the time I want Wesley to stay my little baby forever - which is totally selfish - but I know he won't, and I really don't want that anyway - it just seems like it right now :)  But seriously, how can it have already been 11 months since he was born?  Just look at this mini Corey!!


Wesley stats:
  • Head Circumference -18.75 in (80%)
  • Weight - 22.6 lbs (50%)
  • Length -30.5 in (80%)
  • Clothes - 12 month tops, 18 month pants and sleepers.  Starting to wear Robeez (soft soled shoes) and socks - the only thing he can't take off!!
  • Food - 3 8oz bottles per day, and 3 meals.  He eats all table foods, and we are trying to work with him on using a spoon - I'm pretty sure he just thinks its a toy though.  He has three teeth now!  He's had his two bottom teeth since 7 months, now one of his top teeth (finally) came in and the other one is trying to pop though as well. 
  • Sleep - Sleeping though the night!!!  It has been such a blessing!!  Goes down around 8pm and sleeps until around 6:30am - most days we actually have to wake him up!  Definitely his momma's child :)
  • Talents/interests - Clapping and doing the worm - its hysterical!  Climbing on everything - the coffee table and the hearth are his favorite, probably because they are just the right height for him to climb onto himself.  He is really close to walking - he can cruise around the furniture, but now he will take a couple of steps on his own (with encouragement), and then fall.  He's not confident in his steps without having something to hold onto just yet.  He is becoming more 'strong willed' (ummmm....throws fits) and will definitely let you know if he likes something or not.  He is full of energy, and loves to laugh and play.  Daddy is his favorite playmate :)
Son of mine, you are such a joy - daddy and I are so thankful God chose us.
