11 months

Well, only one more month to go before the big birthday party! We're getting ready for it (although, I have to say - AGAIN - that we can't believe Owen's almost 1). Here are the latest tricks:
  • pulled to stand at sofa (yesterday!) all by himself
  • army crawls all over the floor (wow, what a way to let you know how clean, er, not clean, your floor really is)
  • feeds himself wagon wheels and teething cookies (but prefers to let mommy, and only mommy, feed him EVERYTHING else)
  • points to everything and says "what?" (although it sounds like "da?") and would like for you to name and describe all that he sees
  • says "roar" when he sees a tiger or when you ask him "what does the tiger say?"
  • uses the signs for more and all done pretty regularly
  • waves and says hi and bye when greeting or leaving someone
  • says ny-ny when he's tired and ready to go to sleep
  • says mama and dada
  • points to/finds another person's nose, his own diaper, shirt, and belly on request
  • points to/finds his truck and his book on request

He is also teething again and I guess it's the ones in the back and boy are they making his pretty cranky at times... Motrin is our friend, sometimes our best friend.

He is outgrowing his clothes (again) and we are moving up to 24 month stuff although some of the 18 month stuff still fits and some of the 24 month stuff is too big so I'd say he's between sizes.
Here are a few pics of our boy.
