11 Months Old!

Nothing like being two weeks late! I'd like to blame it on the fact that I have too much going on but really
I have procrastinated at posting due to the LARGE number of pictures I had to sort through. You see, Dan surprised me at Christmas with a nice new DSLR camera and to say we've had fun taking pictures is an understatement!

Nolan took his first steps two days after he turned 10 months old so we've had a full month of walking.
It took him a couple weeks to get confident to where he now prefers to walk. He still has tumbles but they don't seem to faze him. He's enjoying his new found freedom.

We had a wonderful Christmas visiting both our families. Although Nolan had no idea what was going on he seemed to enjoy the festivities.

Here are some pictures from Nolans 11th month:

10 Months Old!

The holiday season sure flies by fast, can't believe it is nearly Christmas. At 10 months Nolan is getting more and more adventurous and learning new things everyday. He learned to wave (full arm wave) and enjoys waving to anyone, especially himself in the mirror.

We had a great Thanksgiving spent with both sides of our family and look forward to doing the same for Christmas. It's going to be a challenge to keep the wrapping paper and cardboard boxes out of his mouth!

Nolan sure enjoys climbing on/in things and keeps us on our toes. He does a lot of standing alone but no walking yet... maybe this next month.

Here are pictures from the last month.

9 Months Old!

 

I'm a couple weeks late, Nolan was 9 months old on the 17th. Between working part time from home and activities with Nolan it's hard to find the time to blog. He sure is keeping me busy!

He checked up great at his doctor appointment, staying steady in the 68th percentile for weight, he sure loves his food!

We were busy enjoying the fall with more football and Nolan's first Halloween. He was too tired to stay up for any trick-or-treaters but he did get first dibs at the candy dish.

Here are some pictures from the month.

LOVES to Swing

Dan says he looks like me here... I still don't see it.
