11 Months

11 months already! I can't believe that pretty soon I will have to start counting in years. It seems like just yesterday that Everett was a tiny little newborn. Time goes so fast; especially when you're having fun.

Fun is all that Everett has ever been. He has an infectious smile and is ALWAYS happy. I'm serious, it is a rare occasion for Everett to be grumpy. Most of the time he just runs around the house grinning and laughing. When he's in a really good mood, he'll run over to the couch and pat it with his hands and laugh and laugh. Ryan and I haven't figured out why he thinks this is so funny, but we thoroughly enjoy watching him play. Everett loves to hang out in just a diaper. As soon as I get his clothes off he takes off running. We usually humor him and chase him for awhile before catching him.

New Milestones this month:

1) 2nd top tooth - he now has 4 teeth.
2) He learned how to stand up on his own. He no longer need to use a stationary object to stable himself.
3) A love for diamond earrings. Ryan gave me beautiful diamond earrings for Christmas, and whenever I wear them Everett tries to eat them off of my ears - it's hilarious.
4) Jabber, Jabber, Jabber - Everett loves to make sounds.
5) He continues to love books and going to the library.
6) Everett loves to play with daddy. Favorite games include chasing each other around the house and getting tossed up into the air.
7) The toilet. Everett loves the toilet. He opens the lid and starts splashing in the water in a split second. Needless to say, we've had a lot of baths.
8) Everett is finally getting hair. Next month he may need a hair cut.

We love you Everett!

Hope you are doing well in TX!

What a wonderful list - you have described the little guy perfectly. I just wish I could see him and hug him and watch him run around!
