It is amazing how much Jackson seemed to grow and develop in his 11th month! This month he has started pulling up on everything & really cruising around (walking while holding onto furniture). He has even transferred from one piece to another a couple of times. Some of his other motor development include playing peek-a-boo (where he covers his eyes... or his face with his hands & he then says "peak") and trying to feed himself with a spoon. He really has gotten into copying things we do- putting a sock or shoe to his foot, putting a brush/comb to his hair, oh & you can't forget the hair clip he tried to put in his hair. ;)
He is making lots of sounds & says a couple words (or sounds that mean words!). We are looking forward to hearing more of what he has to say!
Jackson continues to love to read books and this month for a period of time he insisted on being the one to hold the book we were reading. Anytime I would try to hold it he would cry. Thankfully this didn't last because it is hard to turn the pages that way!
One night this past month Jackson slept through the night!!! It was so nice. But of course it didn't last. He continues to wake 2x a night nearly every night, even though I've reduced his feedings to just 1x a night. Pretty soon it will be time to discontinue feeding at night... I wonder if he'll still wake up then?
At Jackson's one year well baby visit he weighed 22lb 10oz which is about the 50th percentile and his height is 30.25" which is between the 50th & 75th percentile. So interesting how he is pretty average in size and his big sister has nearly always been in the 90-95th percentile!
Jackson & Isabella continue to have a on again off again relationship. Sometimes they have a blast together, other times Jackson is bothering Isabella or Isabella is bothering Jackson (and we get to play referee!). It sure is sweet to see them enjoying one another though when it does happen! Isabella loves to make Jackson laugh and Jackson loves to follow her around. He misses her when she is not around & they are both excited to reunite. We look forward to watching their relationship grow!
We cannot wait to see what the next year holds!
