Nate the Great at 11 months

IMG_4749

For the sake of time…I’m messing up tradition…it’s just going to be a recap.  But, that’s better than my performance at 10 months – because that just didn’t happen!

So for the sake of my sweet boy’s 11 month birthday being noted on their little blog…here we go.

11 months…oh my goodness.  That is just one month away from ONE YEAR!  What a beautiful whirlwind.

Sweet little fella, you are so much fun.  We laugh more with you in our lives and it is GREAT to see the way our family is enriched with your presence.  Many prayers as we see the sweet boy you are becoming, that God would graciously grow your character and your love for others.  Nate, you are a great little sleeper.  You have found your morning rhythm and take a solid 2-3 hour nap in the morning, followed by a 1-2 hour nap in the afternoon.  Thanks for being kind to your momma.  You love to eat.  Never have I seen a child who loves to eat so much.  And you will eat everything.  It is awesome.  And when we sign to you “all done”  you throw your head back and whine.  I probably shouldn’t laugh so much, but it is darn funny.  And you come up laughing – so I’m pretty sure you’re putting on a show anyway.  You are still pretty big, scale-wise.  In the 75 % for weight at your last check-up and off the charts for height.  Nate’s wearing 12 month or 18 month clothes (YAY for hand me downs from lots of boy cousins!!)  You are so not interested in walking.  You started standing on your own for a few seconds the other day, but that didn’t impress you too much.  You still think crawling rocks.

Some glimpses of your 11 month “party”:

Sister taking care of business for you.

Nate, you are so loved!  You are a special boy indeed.
