Eleven Months!

Our big boy is eleven months old! My baby isn't such a little baby any more! He has had a busy month. As usual, here are the highlights:

**He's been spending tons of time in his baby pool. He loves that pool, he loves to splash, and most of all he loves to throw his toys out of the pool and see if he can get them back inside. He even gets excited if he sees it in the garage.

**He's our little pointer. He's learned that pointing gets you what you want, and is always pointing and oohing at something. He's really been into photos and he is always pointing at a photo he wants to see, or better yet pointing at the fridge. That boy could find a refrigerator magnet from a mile away!
**He is constantly making the ooh face and hooting like an owl. Maybe it's all of the owls he has in his room!**When he isn't hooting is is saying dada, nana, or hana.
**He can play peek-a-boo with you, wave good-bye if you say "bye, bye", and tries to pull up on everything!
**He had his first experiences at the park and the zoo. He loved both. We weren't sure how much he would care about the zoo, but he loved it! He was especially into the sharks, dolphins, and giraffes, and monkeys. He would get excited and try to talk to them.
**He has learned that you can push things away that you don't want. He definitely has his own opinions about what food to eat, what books to read, and what toys he wants to play with.

**We have loved all of the extra time we have got to spend with him since school has been out!
