11 Months Old

This 11 month post is long over due.  I tried and tried to get a monthly picture of Benjamin in the brown chair like ALL of the other monthly posts, but I couldn't.  He was just too busy to sit down SAFELY for a split second so that I could take his picture -- oh well, I tried!

At 11 months old Benji weighed in at 24.4 pounds.  He has been wearing 12 month bottoms and 18 month tops.  He is still wearing a 18 month sleeper and size 3 or 4 shoes, if they fit his WIDE foot. He still eats the same amount of formula (or less) and baby food as he was last month, but he still prefers table food if he can get away with it!

Benjamin is on the move.  This kid can crawl FAST.  He doesn't seem to be interested in walking, but that is the only thing.  If we blink for a second he is out of our sight and climbing up on stools and toys.  He can even climb the stairs to the top (he actually makes a bee line for them if we accidentally leave the gate open).  He is the reason they have straps in grocery carts and high chairs.  He is a dare devil!!

Benji is a loving boy who loves to snuggle and give kisses.  Some mornings he gives me/Andy upwards of 10 kisses within the first few minutes of getting up.  But don't let him fool you, as he has a feisty side.  He has been known to play dirty (bites and hits Luke) and he has a bit of a temper if provoked by his brother.  He is my screamer and fit thrower for sure.   

Benjamin you are spunky and that is one of the many reasons I love you so much.  Please stop growing!!!!!

 Here are a few more pictures of Ben from our recent family photo shoot.
