I can't believe that Judah is already 11 months old! Where did the time go?? He is such a sweet little man and has a very mild temperament, though very strong at times. He is also a man of few words. While he has said a handful of words (dada, no, done, night night) very rarely will he use them again. HE much prefers grunting! The one exception is mama, which makes me smile and melt inside! He knows the sign for more and uses it ALL the time. His latest trick is to blow kisses to all around!
He is a big boy and weighs about 22 pounds. He is also very tall for his age but not sure where he stands right now. Lets just say that with his cloths diapers on he wears 12-18 month or 18-24 month clothes!
He loves his bunny, anything with wheels, is really into books (especially ones about trucks) and LOVES to play peek-a-boo. It has been amazing to see the difference between boys and girls already! It is not uncommon for me to see him pushing around a car (or anything else) around the house. He is also into playing with the little people sets far more than Haddie was into. We have also seen a love for music in Judah. He often hums along with the music and claps on the songs he really loves.
He knows which rooms he is not supposed to go into and giggles with delight as you go get him out of there. When Haddie chases after him he is in heaven. He adores his big sister and loves to be with her. She is usually happy to have him around as well.
He also loves to figure out how things work. He learned the steps to buckle up at 9 months and continues to do his part when we get him in his car seat. He watches how people put things together and tries to copy as much as he can. He can sit and observe far longer than Haddie ever could or would. He also loves to pull things out of the baskets! From laundry to toys and books to pots and pans, he is a happy little man with a basket full of things!
While he was crawling at 7 months he is taking his time to walk. He has been pulling himself up and cruising for months. This mama is happy though as I have a feeling he will start out running once he is ready! He gets where he wants to go by crawling fast and climbing on everything. He can get to the top of the play equipment at the park in a few short steps! He will keep me on my toes over the next few months for sure!
Many of you know that he was not sleeping well. He is finally doing much better. We usually have him down for bed by 7 pm and he will sleep until about midnight. After a quick nursing he will go back to bed until 7 or 7:30 am! I am one happy mama! He is still nursing about 6 times a day (one in the middle of the night) and is enjoying other foods as well. He loves green veggies and is not very fond of fruit, although I did get him to eat some melon the other day and he seemed to love it!
Our little Dudah! What a delight and joy you are! You are so funny and you know it! Your laugh is contagious and you know how to melt our hearts with your kisses! We love you!
