biggest boy

as of Sunday our sweetest Dallie is 11 months old!

what's new:

- LOVES to empty my purse/diaperbag

- cruising around the coffee table, couch and anything else he can pull himself up on

- he is now in the 'birds' class at Little Gym

- has play dates with his little friends

- going on walks since the weather has been nice

- 'talking' on the phone, especially if its daddy on the other end

- he is such a dream going to bed! after we read and I sing 'snuggle puppy' to him I put him in his crib and he grabs his green cozy in one hand - puppy blanket in the other, rolls onto his stomach with his bottom in the air and closes his eyes

- he is definitely starting to show his independance by grunting and whining when he doesn't get what he wants

- he understands 'no' - although he still tests me to see how serious I am

- he loves to play with the dogs. Well, Cooper at least. Ruby just kind of ignores him

- he also loves to climb up the stairs - I will be doing something in the kitchen and I'll hear a squeal, look over and he is half-way up the stairs!

playing his drum
playing his piano
feeding Cooper
hanging out in his high chair eating Cheerios
enjoying his juice
he thinks he is HILARIOUS when he does this...it is so cute and funny!
playing with Cooper and daddy
trying to get away
he tries to climb EVERYTHING! these are heavy chairs and he has almost pulled them over a few times while trying to climb

Dallas is truly our little angel! He is so, so sweet and I LOVE spending every minute with him! We can not believe he will be a year old in less than a month - it has gone by way too fast! There are so many stages I would love to go back to, but I also love experiencing each new one too!
