11 month

 Favorite moments:  Snuggling him during his last bottle of the night

Least favorite moment: Screaming to get our attention

Milestones: Cruising, up on hands and knees crawling. Recognizing certain words (duck, book, mawmaw and pawpaw, no, ball)
Likes: eating (eats everything and has to eat when everyone else is), being held (still), his blankie, rolling in big blankets, Inara, Mawmaw and Pawpaw, alone time in his crib, 

Dislikes: Waiting for his food, being on the other side of the baby gate, being told "No".

"C'mon Mom!"

Wow, I seriously can believe my baby is almost a year! He's so sweet and cuddly, but wowee, he has a temper. He's starting to learn what "no" means and does not like to hear it.  He's holding his bottle by himself all the time and still prefers the bottle over the sippy cup. He likes to bang the sippy cup (and everything else) more than drink from it.  He cruises around, but really has not interest in walking yet.  He is in to EVERYTHING and Inara frequently calls him "Wreck-it Shepherd".  She so sweet to him, but is starting to get a little annoyed by his craziness.  Even still, she loves him so much.  I just love this little dude so much!
