Pete is eleven months old today! I can hardly believe it. He seems to have changed so much this month; he is quickly shedding his baby self and very much becoming a little boy.
Pete is such a happy baby. He is just generally in a good mood, smiling and laughing all the time. He is incredibly inquisitive and constantly on the lookout for new things. I’m amazed at how much he seems to have learned in the last month. He says quite a few new words and when he’s in the mood, he’ll try and repeat just about anything you say. His newest words are Bailey (BAAAAAAAAley), what’s that (wazat) and baby (bAAAAAbee). Yesterday morning, we were all lying in bed and Pete made a beeline for the picture of Brienna on my nightstand. As he was climbing over me to get to it, he kept saying baby, baby. It made me cry a little bit, but was also so adorable and so sweet.
Pete loves to clap, wave and give high fives. He is a master crawler and moves very fast. He doesn’t sit still and is into everything, which means that nothing is safe in our house! He is sweet, occasionally impish, smart and pretty darn adorable too; I marvel at him all day long. I am so proud of him and fall more and more in love with him every day. Pat and I are so blessed to be his parents.
