Lately so many people comment on what a big (solid) boy you are. You have certainly been packing on the pounds these past few months, and you weighed in at about 24 lbs when we put you on the shoppe scale recently. We're lovin' all the rolls :)
Cruising, moving from one piece of furniture to another with ease, and even standing alone for moments at a time without realizing it. Getting close to walking... maybe by your first birthday?
Lots of 4am waking lately, though not crying very much (thankfully!). Looks like you've got three teeth coming in at once, you're first ones! Right on schedule with Caleb's 1st, and mine as well, at 11 months.
You're babbling and trying to 'talk' so much these days. Lots of different sounds and attempts at expressing yourself. About a week ago you actually said 'doggie' - your first word that can't be confused with baby babble noises like mama and dada :). You get SO excited when you see Gio, Bella, or any other dog, and you said dog-gie several times. We love your little pointer finger that you use to signal to so many things, followed by lots of babbles about something.
Your signing of 'more' and 'all done' have been very helpful!
You Dance at any and all kinds of music with a big smile on your face. You like pulling up to stand and play on the piano at least once a day.

You're only sleeping two naps now, but I am thankful that we got the 3 nap schedule with you for as long as we did! You're a champion sleeper - 3 hours of naps plus 12 at night!
Landon decided he was ready to move, even though I hadn't yet unbuckled him after our picnic |
