austin eleven months

good golly. the boy really barely fits in his cradle for these pictures! to think he was once the size of his torso and now. well. he looks like a toddler! so. he's eleven months old (and a few days now) and just growing and growing. this month has been a big transition for him. he now crawls and has forgone the army crawl. movin' up in the world. i know. he has seven teeth and has been working on a molar for a few weeks. not fun. austin now says dada, sissy, doggy, night night, and mama. but the only one he does not say at the appropriate time iiiiiiiiiis mama. seriously! he crawls around looking for dada. we wake sissy up and he says sissy sissy sissy sissy. he sees a dog on tv and says doggy. but mama. when i ask him to say mama he won't. he signs more, milk, and eat. has finally learned that there is an edge to the couch and our bed and no longer tries to dive off. praise the lord! austin ended up with roseola after our trip to california just like his sissy did. not a big deal. just a fever then a rash. his newest feat and daddy's favorite is his love for cars. he pushes them around now and even makes a car sound. austin is all boy. he is so tough and rough and well. boy. we love him.
