11 months of Theodore

This little sweetheart. Two sweethearts! Theo is now 11 months. He is just shy from his first birthday. His little personality is really starting to shine through. He is a mild, happy, easy going, very curious, very playful fun and loving little boy. He is not afraid of much at all, he loves adventure, he pretty much considers himself one of the big kids. His favorite things are swimming, baths, dogs, balls, climbing on things, going on walks, reading books and snuggling with his mama. He is very smart and very expressive. He is saying quite a few words including: mama, papa, ball, uh oh, no, bye bye, boo. He is also signing milk and all done and he has started making animal sounds. He is just an absolute joy and he loves life and is excited to live it all up. Out of all of the kids he is the most fearless! When we went swimming he pretty much had no interest in me being by him at all. He also has the cutest little sense of humor. He will try to go play in the bathroom because he knows it is off limits and then he will look to see if I am following him and he will start giggling and crawl as fast as he can! Another funny Theo story, the other day I was nursing him and he bit me! Then he looked up at me and shook his little pointer finger and said, "No! No! No!" He is a smart little buddy! He still loves playing ball. When Clint comes home he says, "ball! Ball!" Because he loves playing ball with Clint. He isn't real close to walking yet, who knows, time will tell, but I think it's still a few months away. He is cruising and crawling, but not yet standing on his own. 

We went to the garden store and he was just so excited by all the plants and colors. He wanted to grab them all. 

I love my time with these two! Caroline is the sweetest sister you could ever hope for. She just adores Theo. She likes to play "Puffin Rock" with him, which is a little show about a little girl puffin and her baby brother puffin, whose name is Baba. So Theo has picked up the nickname Baba.

The Little buddy sometimes refuses his morning nap, and then this happens.

Oh he is just the most charming and dreamy little boy you could ever imagine.

 

There he is! Climbing in sissys dollhouse. He is so silly.

Little mischief maker.

But how coukd you be mad at a face like that.

Love that little fanged smile

Thomas is still pretty much obsessed with Theo. He just loves being with the little guy.

He was very curious about the flowers

 

 

 

 

 

I spy with my little eye 

He could spend hours in the sandbox, much like his big brother.

Tiny monkey

 

He is just so quietly curious, sometimes you don't even know whether kind of mischief he us getting into. I walked in to find him happily emptying out sisters shoe drawer.

Oh I just adore how all three of my kids have gotten these little fangs before their front teeth come in. It is just about the cutest thing ever.   Oh Theodore! There aren't enough words for how much we all just adore you. You are the most perfect addition to our family I could ever imagine. It is so fun watching this guy grow and change, but at the same time, oh my goodness I'm sad he's growing up so fast! I have just loved having such a wonderful baby.
