Parker is now eleven months old. Wow, how much things have changed since last month. To begin with, Parker is finally crawling! One day he just decided he no longer wanted to sit still and play with what Mommy brought him and decided to take off and go get his own toys. Now every time we put him down, he immediately takes off to get as many balls as he can find and then brings them to the small area of tiles in his playroom so he can bounce them. He also makes a beeline for Collin's toys, but is usually turned away unless big brother is at school.
With crawling, Parker is also able to make his own choices about what to play with. It is always balls or his stacking rings that he brings to the small tile floor in the playroom to throw and retrieve. Patrick and I are so happy that Parker has finally reached this milestone and is now becoming more independent and able to play on his own. He is also still pulling up on everything and is able to cruise around a piece of furniture while holding on.
Parker is also LOVING his finger foods. His favorites are peaches, apples, pears, graham crackers, Ritz crackers, buttered toast, cheese puffs and yogurt melts. He will still eat the jarred baby food and a Yo-Baby yogurt but prefers when we give him food on his tray to feed himself.
Our little baby is becoming so big and only one month away from becoming a toddler. It is hard to believe how quickly this year as gone by. As much as I would love to keep him a baby forever, I cannot wait to see what God has in store for his life.
