Blake is 11 Months Old

Blake is 11 months old, so close to being ONE.  I weighed and measured Blake at home since his well visit isn't until October 9th.  Blake weighed 21 pounds and measured 28 inches long. Blake has 4 teeth; two on the top and two on the bottom.  Blake says, "dada", "mama", "nana", and waves bye-bye.  He is a crawling machine and is starting to show interest in walking.

Blake has been pulling up onto things and now likes to furniture cruise.  Blake likes it the best when someone is able to hold his hands so he can walk, but if no one is around he will crawl up to anything standing, pull himself up, and cruise from object to object.  Blakey boy thinks he is big stuff when he does this.  He laughs so hard when we act surprised to see him standing and furniture cruising like a big boy.  No steps on his own yet, but I'm not rushing it!!  He's growing so quickly already.

I could hardly take a picture of him without his pacifier in his mouth.  This little dude has developed quite the personality (attitude).  I foresee Blake and Carter's strong personalities butting heads even more in the future.  If Blake wants something or doesn't like something he lets you know!!  Even though he is developing a personality, Blake is still the sweetest, laid-back, happy little boy!

Blake loves being outside, whether he is on a stroller ride, swinging, or crawling in the grass.  Blake is all boy.  He loves to play with his big brothers' cars, motorcycles, and tractors.  Blake will imitate the vehicles noise and push it around the house.

Happy 11 months precious baby boy!
