11 Months


Brigham hit this milestone while we were in Tennessee. The boy LOVES the vacuum and HATES for his face to be wiped. He loves food and wants whatever you are eating. He hates the stage 3 baby food meals (spaghetti and meatballs, chicken with mixed veggies, ect). The picture above is how meal time ends up when it consists of the food he doesn't like. He knocks the spoon away and clinches his jaw so you can't put any in his mouth. It is quite entertaining although messy. He will eat any table food we give him but he refuses to eat the baby food. He loves to carry around/chew on the Desitin tube and the sunblock tube. He hates when Mark barks like a dog.

I am starting the planning for his first birthday parties. We will have to have more than one because we can't have all our friends and family here at the same time since our house is on he small end.


He eats at least 3 containers or the equivalent a day and 3 6-7 ounce bottles per day. He will walk sometimes if you are walking with him and let go of his hand quickly but then sits down as soon as he can. I am beginning to wonder if he will walk before he is a year old. We still aren't sure if he says "mom" and "dad" on purpose or not. He jibbers all day but as far as we can tell, he still hasn't said anything that we consider his first word.

Brigham is a sweet boy that laughs at almost anything. The easiest ways to get him to laugh are to say "boo" or to bite his legs and feet. These are almost guaranteed to get him going. Sometimes he will even put his foot into your mouth so that you will bite him. He is very social and never meets a stranger. We love that.
