11 months

Last week Maddix turned 11 months!
I seriously cannot believe that in less than a month he will be a year old! This year has gone by way too fast!


You are all over the place. You love "cruising" around furniture, finding anything he can push on the hardwood floors. Loves to crawl and loves his walker.

Stuck under the table...

Standing all by yourself...you have only done this a couple times.

This last month we have tried to stay pretty busy. We have gone to the pool a ton and you love it! We also play outside whenever we can and you love to point things out wherever we are.
We also had some visitors this month, Nicole and the girls, your Great Grandma and Grandpa Mealey, and The Bushman family. We love getting to play with all our family!


You also got pretty sick this month. You had a really high fever and were really fussy. We took you into the dr and they said you had a bad ear infection. Once the antibiotics kicked in you were back to your happy self!

This is when you were sick...you spent most of the day like this, not asleep just cuddled up with mommy.
You still love your silky...you were so tired this night you kept crawling over to your silky and just laying your head down. So cute!
You love your front facing car seat and have to watch a movie whenever we are in there. The only one that really keeps you entertained is Baby Einstein Neighborhood Animals. It has dogs, cats, ducks, mice, and lots of animals that you just love!
Giving mom your big open mouth kisses!
Learned how to play Peek a Boo! You think it is so funny!
Maddix Loves:

His silky and binky.
When we get you out of bed in the morning. You are usually looking out of your crib or standing up waiting for us.
To be outside. You love to play in the grass, look at the trees and love walking around in your walker outside.
To play with his cousins and the neighbor kids. You are at the age where you love watching and trying to interact with the other kids.
Love to crawl and "cruise." We can't wait for you to start walking!
Loves food and his sippy! He is such a good eater. He still eats baby food and really likes it, but he also loves big people food! He loves fruit, watermelon and strawberries are his favorite. He loves his juice and rarely drinks water or anything else.
Loves his mommy and daddy.



Maddix Hates:

Being left alone. If I sneak out I can usually leave you alone in a room for a couple minutes but if you notice that you are alone it is all over!
Water. You spit it out like a fountain anytime it is in your mouth!
Not getting what you want when you want it. We have seen a few tantrums this month. I am a mean mom and usually just laugh at you :)

We love you Maddix and can't believe how big you are!
