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.

Teegan is a cruiser, and even took a few steps a few days before he turned 9 months old. WOW!!

My little man is such a happy guy.


Teeg isn't the best napper. Well, that is being kind....he is a horrible sleeper. Occasionally he will sleep in his stroller inside when he can hear white noise from outside.

Teegan went on his first vacation, to Michigan to see his Grammy & Grandad, Auntie and Uncle, and to meet his cousins!! What a good boy he was, although he had his first little bout of stranger anxiety. That tired Mama out! While there, he stood independently for the first time for a few seconds. He continues to crawl all around, cruise everywhere, and is seriously considering walking for a living!!

eight months old

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

Teegan is a master at motor skills. He can pull himself to stand, is cruising the furniture, and can get to a sitting position interdependently. He will be walking before we know it! Grayson was such a lazy bones for the longest time so it seems like Teegan is growing up so fast!

seven months old

 Compare to 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, 4 months, 5 months, 6 months.

Teegan just pulled to a standing position while sitting in his crib...oh boy, look out!!
Teegan tried his first Cheerios....they were a hit, of course. This little man is just the sweetest!! Random photos from the month:

six months old

Compare to 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, 4 months, 5 months.

Teegan has been perfecting his sitting skills....he needs no assistance and only occasionally topples over. Teegan is super duper delicious and snuggable. I tell him all the time. He is a perfect gentleman too, as you can see from the bowtie:
He has been playing more with his toys, and his brother. Teegan got a new high chair in preparation for eating his first food!!
Teegan tried his first bite of food ever....cereal!
Gray & Teeg had their first dinner date.
