Mason:11 Months


In just one short month my little man will be a year old.  It is crazy the things that can happen in a year.  It is so hard to believe that this time last year I was this giant pregnant teacher hoping not to go into labor at school.  Now, I have this amazing little person who is almost 1!









Sleep:
- For the most part naps are the same with him napping 2 times a day, once in the morning and once in the afternoon.  They each last about two hours.  Lately, though, he has only been taking one 2-2 1/2 hour nap.
- At night he is back down to 11 hours...we can't complain, but it would be nice to get sleep past 6:30 am.
- He goes to bed between 7:15-7:30 and wakes up between 6:30-7:00 most days.

Feeding:
-He has 4 5oz. bottles, and then he will eat anywhere from 1-4 oz.  before bed and 3 solid meals.
- He has snacks throughout the day as well.  He loves to feed himself!
- We are trying to get him to use a sippy cup more, and he has actually drank formula from a sippy cup instead of a bottle a couple of times.
- Baby food doesn't happen anymore!  This kid loves real food, and he loves to feed himself even more.  We put food on his fork and he will feed it to himself!

Weight and Length:
- 22.5 lbs. and around 29" 
- We won't know for sure until his 12 month check-up

Diapers and Clothes:
- Mostly 6-12 and 9-12 and 9 month. Ocasionally a 12 month will fit. He still seems to be on the smaller side of clothes even though people always seem to think he is older than he is.
- Size 3 in diapers still...we prefer Huggies little movers.


See the food in his mouth?  That was the only way we could get a laying down picture!
Also, he always crosses his ankles now...I think it is so cute!  Anytime he is sitting, he has his little legs crossed at the ankles.


Personality/Likes/Miscellaneous:
- He is a speed crawler and gets wherever he wants really fast!
- He has started to stand up on his own without anything to pull up on.
- He has taken his first steps!!  We have only made it to 3 before he quits, but at least he is trying !
- He is clapping his hands and waving.
- He is such a genuinely happy baby...he laughs, talks, and smiles ALL day!  We are so lucky and blessed!







Love his monthly photo shoots!  It is amazing how much changes from month to month!

It is the time of year for Sno-Cones!!

  1. Georgia did the SAME thing with sleep. When she hit 11 months she went back down to 11 hours and wakes up at 6:30...I wonder if it's a developmental thing? I sure did love those 12-13 hour stretches!
