11 Months!

Height:  not sure but he can reach the door handle on the front door.  :-)

Weight:  28lbs (Whoa!)

Size:  Still 5 in diapers and 18mo/24mo clothes.  He is wearing some 2T shirts.

Teeth:  2 on top and 3 on bottom

Sleeping:  Still lots of wake ups but he generally puts himself to sleep.  We are working on weaning him from all nighttime bottles.  Naps really well 2x a day for 90-120 minutes.

Eating:  Still doesn't want to eat tablefoods but did have some pancakes and grilled cheese.  Eats most purees but only if he is distracted by me singing songs to him or watching a cartoon.  He does enjoy eating paper so please avoid leaving any around when he's visiting.

Movement:  Sam is walking on his own about 75% of the time.  He can't stand on his own yet so when he falls down, he crawls to something to pull himself up and then walks to wherever he wants to go.

Words and sounds:  Sam just started babbling!  He says dadadadada, mamamama, and babababa.  He has also started roaring.  We practice animal sounds and the lion says "rrraaaawwwwrrr" and now Sam makes the same sound.  Too cute!

Milestones: 1st haircut, walking on his own, clapping, and can hold his own bottle.

Favorite toys:  An old cell phone that Daddy gave him, his walker still, an old remote control, his Little People animals, shoes (only eating them, not wearing them), the water cooler and dishwasher, and soft basketball and bat.

Dislikes:  Being banned from the kitchen b/c he won't stop playing with the water cooler and dishwasher, getting his diaper changed, putting on shirts, having anything taken away from him (he flings himself backwards and screams his head off), sleeping.  Sam also hates the vacuum cleaner (too loud) and will scream when it is on.
