11 months old

Cooper turned 11 months old on Sunday. Only one more month until Cooper is a year old! Man how time flies! I was looking at some of his videos from when he was a newborn and have a hard time remembering when he was that little. It just seems that he is always in the "right" stage for me. I always think that he is so much fun, and have a hard time picturing him any older. But it happens, and I've turned around and he is 11 months!



I've been slacking lately on picture taking. Don't know why, but it just seems that I don't ever think to get it out. Really need to improve on that! I know it will be so much worse when we have another baby, so I need to get in the habit now of trying to take pictures every week.



Here are some things Cooper is doing:


  • He is wearing 12 - 18 month clothes and size 4 diapers.

  • Nurses 4 times a day. Eats majority table food. Can now drink independently from a sippy cup, but likes to throw it off his highchair, so we monitor his use! :)

  • Still waking up after 10 hours to nurse and then going back to sleep for 2 more hours. - There were two nights where he slept all night, and I thought that was going to be a trend, but no go. Overall, I think 10 hours is pretty good!

  • Takes 2 naps. Still an awful napper! Kicks and screams going down and is not consistent with how long he'll nap.

  • Loves to push the garage door button.

  • One of the highlights of his day is checking the mail. He likes to sit on the living room floor and throw the mail around and chase after it.

  • Can say "dog", "duck", "quack", "meow", "woof", and of course momma, dadda, and bye-bye. Of course you have to know what he's saying, but they are very close to the real thing!

  • Is SO CLOSE to walking. He can stand by himself without holding on to anything for as long as he wants. And if he wants to sit down, he will squat down now, instead of falling back on his bottom. Sometimes he will even take a few steps, but nothing that would be considered walking. He does walk all around the house using furniture and any other item he comes across.

  • He can clap, wave bye-bye, blow a kiss, shake head "no", give a kiss, play peek-a-boo, all on command
