Henry turned 11 months old while we weren’t looking

Baby Henry turned 11 months old when we weren’t looking!

He is now signing milk a lot, seems to say mama and dada, cruises around like crazy and stands up only using one hand to hold on. Buzz says the other day Henry stood alone for a couple seconds! He just got his 8th tooth (and it was a doozy) He likes to play with cars and balls and Zibby. He likes to eat cornflakes and veggie booty and not much else. He does like to pretend to eat with spoons and forks.

He nurses great, the EC pottying is going well, and he is generally a happy, bubbly lil guy. Today he actually tried to get off the bed the safe way, on his tummy, feet first. Usually he just wants to go head first (ay yi yi!) He is learning!

He is also very dextrous. He can get cans of soda out of the sixpack ring. He can get into any cabinet. He almost got his shirt off himself the other day. He can put coins in the piggybank (with supervision of the coins not going in his mouth)
He can play with his tupperware shaper sorter toy

We love you Henry!

conversations with zibby

Today Zibby sat on an egg to see what would happen.
It broke.
I was nursing Henry back down to his nap while this took place.
I came out and thought the cat barfed on the rug.
No, ZIbby says. Its an egg. I was a mother hen and I sat on it.

The other day, as we are leaving for my LLL meeting:
Zibby: I sure am glad we are going to LLL meeting
Me: You are? Why?
Zibby: I am having some breastfeeding problems.
Me: Oh, really? Whats going on?
ZIbby: When I nurse my baby at night, she bites my nipple.
Me: Mmm. Yes, that is a problem.
