11 Months

Oh baby, oh baby, oh!  We are just getting started with the fun that this boy dishes out.  At 11 months Dawson...

• Says "bah-bah" when we point to the sheep in his book and ask him what he says.
• Folds his arms for prayers.  Melts me every time.
• Loves to get into the drawer beneath the oven and all of its contents.  On his craziest days he leaves me with a few cake pans, three muffin tin pans, a pizza pan(his most favorite) and all of my silpats scattered across the kitchen floor. 
• Drives around a little firetruck, Mcqueen or any car at all he can find.  Loves anything with wheels.
• Said ba-ba and waved bye to Daddy!
• Adores soft fleecy blankets.  He loves to rub his face all over them and roll around.  These blankets make him so happy.
• Waits for people to look at him and smile.  When we are out and about he will stare at someone, smiling, and without fail they eventually notice him and comment on how cute he is and what a great smile he has.  It cracks me up.  
• Really enjoys 'shake and go' cars and tries to shake any car he has in his hand.  It's a little confusing to him as to why they can't all make the 'vroom' sound and then speed off on their own.
• Loves balls, all kinds of balls.  When Asher hands him a soccer ball on our way to soccer practice, Dawson chants, "ball, ball, ball, ball" incessantly.  He LOVES balls. 
• Loves it when Daddy gets home.  This little man adores his Dad!
• Is testing out more climbing skills.(see photo)  He's getting more creative, uh-oh.
