This child.  Amazes me every day.  He's soaking up the world around him at a fantastic rate.  Of course, he's still not walking, but hey, he'll get to do that for the rest of his life.  Might as well enjoy scooting while he still can!  He informed me that wearing a onesie was for babies, so he graduated to a real shirt this month.  Such a dapper dude.

He's saying lots of words, and doing lots of pulling up and almost standing up without assistance.  Oh, and he eats like crazy!  I think he eats more than I do most of the time!  And his appetite for books is insatiable.  He'll follow me around, scooting while clutching onto one of his favorites, while persistently saying, "Buh!  Buh!  Buh!!!" until I give in,  Then the moment we finish he starts up again, "Buh!!! Buh!!" until we find another one.  I love it.

He got his first hair trim a few days ago, his top eye teeth are coming in, and he's getting quite good at using a fork.  Growing by leaps and bounds, I tell you!

Those holidays.  They'll throw you off your game.  This is Si as of December 18th.  Cute as a button and ready for Christmas.  We had so much fun with him this year...he really got into the whole thing.  And he loooved having lots of cousin playmates!

This particular day, he was in quite the mood.  I'd already put him down for a nap, then realized it was picture-taking day!  After pulling him out of his crib and changing his clothes, he was not thrilled about posing for the camera.  We got quite a range of emotion!

Silas is learning and growing so fast.  Still no walking, but he's pulling up now and then, and scooting like a little champ.  He discovered cheese this month and loves it with all of his little baby heart...gets it from his Mom.  Favorite food is still probably clementines, but he loves him some beans, kiwi, bananas,  salmon, plain yogurt, and just about anything else we offer him.  His newest trick is scooting around the house, pointing at things he's not allowed to touch and saying a very solemn, "No, no, no." He also learned how to blow kisses and say "thank you" in sign language recently (confusing, as those two things are strikingly similar).  Love this kid.

After fifty-two weeks I couldn't very well stop all together, could I? We're going monthly, y'all. Yeah...stole that idea from Young House Love, too.  For your viewing pleasure...October 18th.
