11 Months!

Eli is now 11 months old, which means . . . one more month 'til his BIRTHDAY!!  (Can you tell I'm a little excited?)  He is still such a good baby.  I am constantly giving him hugs and kisses, and somehow love him more and more every day.  Every time I look at him my heart swells with joy, and also hurts because he's  growing up way too fast.  I just want him to stay my sweet little boy forever!

Eli's been battling a cold for over a week now.  He hasn't wanted to eat or drink as much, and he coughs a lot in his sleep.  We haven't taken a walk in several days, in hopes that staying indoors will help him get better faster.  I'm more than ready to get back outside and enjoy the rest of our Fall!

Enjoy the pictures from the past month!

Loves pulling himself up to whatever he can get to!  He's getting better at catching himself when he gets shaky.  He also does pretty well at walking back and forth from the couch to the coffee table.  But he's still pretty cautious, and has the cutest way of bringing himself back to the floor.

 

This is what he wore while cheering on the St. Louis Cardinals on their way to winning the World Series.  : )

Missed getting to go out for a walk on a yucky day.

Hehe . . . the hat he wears when it's cold.  He never fusses when I put it on him, and doesn't mind getting all bundled up to go out.

To grandmother's house we go!  Always does great on our long car trips!

 

Mouth full of teeth!  Working on his 6th tooth now.  This picture also shows how Eli points instead of waves.  : )

"Ooohhh!"

 

Sometimes when I come in to get him in the morning he's curled up in a ball still sleeping.  

Don't ya just wanna squeeze him?!
