I'm 11 months old...and I'm still not quite walking (at least, at the beginning of the month). I'm really close, though...in fact, I'm able to walk (I've taken a few steps), but I won't walk by myself -- I have to be holding on to something (a hand, a table, something solid). I'm starting to understand more and more things every day, and I'm pretty much understand what my parents are asking/telling me: "Where's my nose?", "What sound does a dog make?" ("Arf!"), "What sound does a snake make?" ("Hssss"), and lots more. I eat everything in sight, I'm starting to sleep better on my own, and my hair's getting longer! Most recent pictures (from my BIRTHDAY!) are at the bottom (scroll down to week 4)! |
