11 months already!

Can you believe he's 11 months old? Only a few weeks until the big first birthday! Pirate themed, of course! Since it's so close to Halloween, I'm having it be a costume party. We have some great decorations and an awesome pinata. Tiffany Yates (who did his 6 and 9 month photo sessions) is going to come take pictures of the party, so that will be great. She's a fantastic photographer.

No presents are necessary, but if you're looking to get something, check our wish list on the left side of the blog and click the Amazon wish list to get some ideas. Small, compact toys are the best-we need more fun things for car rides and we don't have a lot of storage space. CDs and books are always good too (but either check with us first or include a gift receipt because we have a lot of them already!) A good book on baby sign language would be awesome-he knows the sign for milk and will do it back, and knows the sign for all done, but we're working on teaching him more.

He went to the dr. today because he had a giant mosquito bite on his forehead that swelled up pretty badly, but everything is ok! He is at 31 lb 1 1/2 oz. He's walking great. He can walk on his own, but prefers to have a hand to hold on to. He loves to nod and shake his head no. He's so personable and likes to smile at everyone.

Yep, I make him wear a helmet. It's saved him from hurting his head several times already.

Long time no post

Working on new teeth
My new "scary mean" face

I wasn't ready!
I have beautiful eyes!
Sorry for the length between posts! Zanthias has 2 more teeth so he is up to 8 now!

Daddy!

Zanthias started saying "Dada" and even once, "Daddy", on Wednesday. Drew was ecstatic!

9 month photo shoot











We had a great time with Tiffany again, and got some wonderful shots, even though Mr. Serious would barely smile!

Went to a birthday party today and had fun playing in his little clubhouse.

Sneak peeks from our photo shoot

Sneak peeks are up at Tiffany's site from our photo shoot. Zanthias was pretty crabby, so I don't expect many (if any!) smiling photos. The drinking fountain shot was Drew's idea.
