Ethan at 11 Months!!

I thought I'd take a minute to list some of the things Ethan does at 11 months. He's definitely transitioning from baby to toddler. I can't believe how quickly he learns new things and how much he comprehends. He keeps us hopping but we wouldn't have it any other way!

• plays peek-a-boo
• gives very wet kisses upon request (if he's in the mood)
• actually pays attention to books we read to him and turns the pages himself
• can do patty cake when we sing the song
• claps and waves bye bye
  
• LOVES to play with balls and can roll them to back to you
• doesn't crawl but scoots to get to what he wants (for a visual, see prior video blog below)
• can go from laying down on his tummy to sitting up
• likes to share his food with mommy (mainly cheerios and his bottle)
• gets bored with the baby food but loves bread, mandarin oranges, scrambled eggs, bananas, noodles, peeled grapes, and cheerios
  
• pulls himself up into standing position
• points to direct you to things he wants
• spits out his baby food at you when he's had enough
• and most recently, was spotted standing up without holding on to anything! uh oh!!
  

This is how I found Ethan the other day after
waking up from his nap. One handed!!
