11 month old Hayes

Hayes turned 11 months old over a week ago. I cannot even fathom that he is less than a month away from turning 1. I can vividly remember this time last year as we prepared for our sweet little man to arrive. How it all happened and passed so quickly is beyond me.

Here's what little man was up to this past month:

• Jibber jabbers. I often find him making sweet sounds as he plays. 
• Stands on own. He can now rise up on two feet from anywhere. 
• Cruising around the furniture (like a pro). 
• Plays peek a boo.
• More teething (thinking more on the bottom will poke through soon).
• Climbs stairs. Quickly. 
• So fast at crawling. 
• Mischievous. He totally knows the things he shouldn't be doing. He just grins and does it anyway. 
• Growls and screams when playing. (see pics of his usual screaming face below). 
• First hair cut!
• Slept through the night for the first time. Hasn't done it again, sadly, but continues to sleep better during the day and night (minus a bad week from teething). 
• Still breastfeeding every 2-4 hours, depending on the day. 
• Eats three meals a day plus two snacks. 

Overall, Hayes is such a sweet, curious, happy little boy!
