I haven't done a real post in such a long time and since this is such a big milestone I thought I would do a quick recap of the last 6 months, which was the last time I gave a Caleb update. So since then at 7 months Caleb learned to sit up all on his own!
At 8 months Caleb took his first plane ride and we visited my sister that moved to Seattle 5 days after he was born!
At 9 months we were still in Seattle having a wonderful time! When we did get home and went in for his check up though his stats were... 20 lbs 14 oz ... 29.5 inches ... 19 inches for his head!
At 10 months he was still content to be stationary and didn't seem to have any plans to do otherwise! Toward the end of that month he did start moving around a little more but never in a consistent fashion, he would roll, army crawl, flip over on his back and inch worm on his head etc. but could go up the stairs so out came the baby gate! And then he started pulling himself up on the furniture and walking back and fourth on that a little but still no conventional crawling, silly boy!
At 11 months he decided he could walk around the whole house holding on the couch, table, wall etc. and then started doing the army crawl on a regular basis.
It wasn't until about a week or so ago that he actually got up on his knees and crawls conventionally. He also stands unsupported for a few seconds at a time now and has actually taken a couple steps between things unknowingly. So we think he maybe walking before we know it!
And then of course 12 months...I can't believe it has been a year already! Where has the time gone. I am so thankful to have this sweet little boy in my home and in my heart, I just can't get enough of his smiles and giggles and he gives the best hugs I have ever had, hands down, seriously! I love you Caleb!
