Thomas: Eleven Months

Eleven months and Thomas is babbling away. He has his own version of crawling which looks a bit like an inchworm, and he is finally sleeping through from 10pm-5:30 or 6am. Then he'll nurse and go back to sleep till about 8:30. Yay! He loves toys and putting things in his mouth. He has his first two teeth this month--one on the bottom in the middle, and one incisor tooth on the top. We call it his vampire tooth. :) We are looking forward to celebrating his first Christmas next week!
