11 Months!

Julian is 11 months old, and here's what he's been up to!

He has 5 teeth (two on top, three on the bottom) and so far, teething has not been a problem for him.

He is now exclusively crawling on all fours. It's about time he figured out that it is much easier and faster to get from Point A to Point B this way.

His favorite foods are sweet potatoes, bananas and meat. Any kind of meat (don't tell Daddy!). Dinnertime at our house with Julian at the table has been forever changed. When he has food in front of him, there are lots of laughs (he loves to make the boys laugh), lots of eating, and lots of food dropped and splattered everywhere. When there isn't food within his reach, Lord help us all. Brother is NOT happy when this happens, and the dinner period turns from fun to fury. We usually scramble to get him wiped up, out of his chair, and into another room, because otherwise, Julian mad. Very, very mad.

He can play peek-a-boo, "so big!" and clap his hands. "So big!" is his favorite, and he will frequently throw his hands up in the air and then look away shyly, waiting for you to say "Soooooo big!"

Operation Sleep Through the Night began 3 nights ago. So far, his crying bouts haven't lasted very long. It's time, sweet Julian, for you to sleep through the night without needing your Mama. Love you long time, but this is a necessary transition for the both of us.

Love you, Jules!
