Eleven months. My sweet boy is already 11 months!

His personality is becoming more evident: sweet, funny, insistent, determined, and losing a bit of cuddliness (but still cuddly when I time it right). We find him chuckling to himself often and I can get a smile with just a small tilt of my head. He’s seemingly very happy and I hope all is what it seems!

Finn waves “bye” and “hi”. Loves music and moving to the music.

He’s tolerant though when he’s hungry….he’s hungry and there is no stopping it until he is satiated. The boy can eat.

We love clapping with him. That’s a new development this past month of life. He applauds with crowds (in person or on TV, applauds with us, and applauds in the car – I clap…he claps…I clap…he claps…it can continue for quite some time).

We believe Finn is saying “dog” (“doh”) when he sees dogs. He exclaims when he sees the kitty but isn’t saying “kitty” quite yet. He may be saying, “all done” and his version of hungry is “KiKi”.

I find I long to be near him when I’m not with him. And even though it’s exhausting to be a Finn Mom, I love every moment I have with him. At my most exhausted- the hours before bedtime- we play, cuddle, eat, and get ready for bed. Those are the most exhausting, but the most precious moments.

Finn is just an amazing little boy. I know I’m a wee bit biased, but I’ll never see him in any other way than amazing.
