11 months old!!!!

So our little boy is 11 months old today. Hard to believe. We are planning his birthday party. When we got pregnant with Eli, Jayden being 13 1/2 months old when he arrived seemed so far away. Now its around the corner!! Where did the time go?

So what cool things is Jayden doing these days, you ask? Well let me tell you.

• standing for up to a minute by himself
• he will walk if we walk behind him holding his hands. this is new in the last couple weeks.
• he'll take a couple steps if we hold just one hand but then he plops on his butt.
  
• his vocabulary is slowly expanding. he says: mama, dada, bye, hi, duck, up, all done. he also will say a couple in combination, mostly "hi dad" and "bye dad." he will also repeat lots of things we say, although doesn't use them again on his own. he has repeated: bad, we're not (I said we're not going to get the stuff on Mommy's dresser), and stinky. i think there are a couple others I can't remember right now.
  
• sleeps 12 hours every night and takes two good naps.
  
• waves hi and goodbye pretty consistently
• loves everyone he ever meets
• gives kisses when asked for kisses
• is generally happy and content almost all of the time

We'll try to get some 11 month pics later but Daddy has kind of a crazy day and as we all know, Mommy doesn't much but blog these days!! Ha ha.
