Charles is 11 months

One month till one year... I'm crying and celebrating inside. Next month it may all come out. This past month has been pretty fun with all the new things Charles has learned and done.

He photo shoot didn't go as well this time around. He refused to stay put and/or look at the camera. I thought about trying again another day, but never got around to it and before I knew it his birthday was here.


Charles finally has a tooth and more to cut through soon. His first tooth is the same as James's first tooth; bottom left. Would this be a genetics thing?


He has figured out climbing. We don't have stairs so he doesn't have much experience with them. However he has tackles some at the playground. He has also figured out how to climb onto both the kid size and the full size chairs we have. I'm sure the couch will be next.


He has also discovered how to open kitchen cupboards. Pots, pans, mixing bowls, etc. now grace my kitchen floor daily. We had to put kid lock on the cabinets with our trash and recycling bins and on the bottom half of the pantry. We also invested in a baby gate to keep him out of cat food and little box and bathroom cabinets. Fun times!


Besides being a little naughty/testing the limits on a regular basis, he has been learning some ASL. He's up to 5 signs: Hat, Food, More, Finished, Milk. He also says "mama" but only when upset.


Stay tuned for his 1 year update and his birthday celebration.
