Compare to 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, 4 months, 5 months, 6 months, 7 months, 8 months, 9 months, 10 months.

Unbelievable. It really doesn't seem possible that my baby is already 11 months old! How bittersweet....it is sad to pack up the baby clothes and items...it's really the end of an era. In a few ways it's nice, especially because I am FINALLY able to sleep through the night again. I will always miss the baby days though.

Teegan is now a great sleeper at night, as of just a few weeks ago. He goes down easily around 7pm, and wakes around 6-630am. His napping is better, having 2 naps a day. He will transition to one nap in the next month, I think. Grayson and Teeg sleep in the same room, and usually don't wake each other up, unless it's time for them to wake up anyway. They are both still in cribs so things will change when we move Grayson to a big boy bed. We will do that sooner than later but for now I'm enjoying my sleep!!

Teegan has 2 bottom teeth and 4 top teeth, and is using those cute toofers to eat more and more food. He is a pretty good eater, although I often have to distract him with a toy while I try I shovel food in his mouth. I hope that isn't an early sign of ADHD!! 

This month we went to Misquamicut, Rhode Island and visited my aunt and uncle in Connecticut. While there Teegan gave up any form of crawling or cruising and at 10 months old was 100% walking! He took his first steps a few days before he turned 9 months old and quickly walked more and more between 9-10 months. He is now starting to do a little dance, especially when watching his big brother's favorite Michael Jackson video.

Teegan enjoyed his first time painting.

Some of Teegan's favorite activities are playing hide-and-seek, peek-a-boo, being to tickled, going on the swings, eating Cheerios (the fake organic kind), and watching Classical Baby or Yo Gabba Gabba.

Horrible mother

I feel like a horrible mommy since I haven't updated the blog in so long. I have many excuses of course...for one, having 2 kids under the age of 3 is quite time consuming so I have very little spare time, and...well....that's my only excuse I guess. 
I feel guilty because I was so dedicated to it when Grayson was a baby and I haven't done Teegan's monthly blog posts. I have done the monthly photos and have written down all his milestones so I will do them at some point soon. I want to be able to look back and read about all these baby moments and read about the details so I will catch up soon.
