At the Beach

I love the water and the beach. Jess, my sitter, takes me once or twice a week to Candlewood Lake. Mom, Dad and I went to Long Island Sound and enjoyed hanging out in the sunshine. I enjoyed splashing in the cold water and playing with the cooler.
P.S. I'm not much for my sun hat.

Drone of the Lawnmower

I love moving the lawn with my Dad. I get to ride in my backpack and go back and forth across the lawn. The sound often puts me to sleep so Daddy can take the backpack off and give his shoulders a rest.

Mischief

Look who found his bag of cheerios in the backpack....and ripped a hole in the bag so he could eat them.

11 Months

If I wasn't lunging for the camera, then I was trying to eat my cheesehead or the 11 month sign...hence my photos. (I'll post some better action shots of me today.) I continue to be a very busy little boy, no time for sitting and certainly no patience for this monthly picture business. My big news: I took my first steps on the 4th of July just prior to my 11 month Birthday. I am getting more and more adept at walking and alternate 50/50 between this and crawling. We also think that I have said my first words (although Mom and Dad still aren't totally convinced I know what I am saying). I say Dada and nana (banana) pretty well. I'm really into toys that make sounds these days, the louder the better! I still have my eight teeth (4 on top, 4 on bottom) and use them to eat any food. I'm an awesome eater! 12 months here I come!
