Eleven Months

I can't believe we are one month away from celebrating a year with our little man!

At eleven months, Jackson is . . .

**standing on his own from all kinds of starting positions

**still doing some "regular" crawling but mostly gets everywhere by what we call the "crab crawl"

**jabbering away--he seems to repeat what we say with the same inflections we use

**still waving at everyone, yelling "HEY!"

**still saying Da-Da, and something sounding like Momma comes out occassionally

**into throwing things into the toilet if we forget to close the lid

**still not sleeping completely through the night consistently (I think it's something we've passed on to our kids!)

**becoming a picky eater--doesn't want the usual kid stuff like mac-n-cheese.  I struggle to get him fed something of substance each day and I pray he gets over this dislike of soft foods (we don't need anymore feeding therapy/sensory issues around this house!)

**loving the church nursery and always gets a good report on his behavior.  :)

**loving cars and trucks, and when he can't find one, he just pushes other toys/objects around as if they were one

**getting more and more mobile everyday, busy exploring the wide expanse of world around him!

I got news for you Ashley...while Mom and I kept "Action Jackson" yesterday, I worked on him saying Pop...and he has the two p sounds down but just doesn't put the "o" between them yet. He is on the verge of saying Pop !!!!!

At eleven months it sounds like Jackson is a busy boy and mom is losing her brain chasing him. What a lovely thing to lose your mind over. lol!!
