Eleven Months!

What a crazy month! I think Evan has changed more in this past month than any month so far. Or maybe it just seems like it since we've all been so busy with packing and moving this last month. Here are some of his latest accomplishments:

-He now scoots/army crawls EVERYWHERE. Right after we moved in we had to start babyproofing everything. We have to make sure the basement door is always shut and can't really leave him alone for any length of time without him getting into something he shouldn't!
-He loves to play Pat-A-Cake- especially the rolling part.... It makes me smile every time you start to sing the song and he instantly starts to clap his hands.
-He's a great little kisser. All you have to do is pucker up your lips and he leans over to kiss you. I love it!!
-He still loves books the best. At this point, he doesn't particularly let you read them much- he just likes to turn the pages over and over again.
-He still likes to watch his Praise Baby movies, although now he gets pretty distracted with other things around him and doesn't pay as much attention to his movies anymore.
-He's getting much better with standing up to things and holding on- He's just starting to try and pull himself up...
-He loves to eat!!! Now he eats pretty much all finger foods (fruits, veggies and meats, crackers, cheerios). He also loves to eat cottage cheese and yogurt. In the last couple of weeks he's also started to drink Vitamin D milk- a big step for our little guy!!
-He loves to take walks in his stroller! It's always a sure way to make him a happy guy if he's crabby....
-He loves to chase our kitties... It's so funny- He takes off after them and never quite catches them, but it's been good crawling practice for him. At first he would cry when they wouldn't let him catch them, but I think now he's gotten kind of used to it...

I've included some pictures we've taken recently... I need to start getting in the groove of taking pictures again now that we're getting settled in our new house...

What a big boy!

I love this smile!Eating at Pizza Hut....

Hanging on to the coffee table like such a big boy!
