Holton is 11 months old!

I have to hurry up and get this post posted before another month has passed and Holton turns ONE (January 26)!!!

He has made huge strides in becoming mobile this month, and frequently gets himself into slightly awkward situations - like feet stuck in between the crib slats.


Who can resist that dimple?


Here is a series of photos that I think really capture what a happy baby he is!



He loves to clap!




He has learned to wave hello and goodbye.




Playing in the colorful balls given to the kids by Aunt Beth and Uncle Jarod for Christmas...


I love his new overalls!


It's hard to capture him crawling in a still picture.  He is so fast now and can get almost anywhere he wants to.  He is pulling up on everything and "cruising" between furniture.  Wow, it's amazing how fast he has become mobile!

He figured out how to stand up in his crib (which he was very proud of, by the way), but it took a few days and a few lessons from Daddy to learn to sit back down (which he was also very proud of and wanted you to applaud when he did the whole stand up, sit down routine over and over!).  Until he figured out the sitting down thing, naps were tough because he would stand up, get frustrated, and then just start screaming!


This is my favorite video of Holton so far... I keep it on my phone and listen to it any time I need a smile! Who knew that pulling off socks could be so funny?


We love you Holton!
