How in the world is it possible that Luke is 11 months old already! This little boy is busy busy and into everything. Luke has gotten really great at walking this month, has gotten two more teeth, and is eating like a man!
Luke has absolutely taken off this month with walking. He is getting so fast and his balance has improved a ton. He absolutely loves chasing Rowdy around, poor dog is so screwed when Luke figures out how to climb up on the couch. As far as teeth go, Luke has gotten four teeth on the top over the last month, lots of teeth in a short time, poor kid. I don't know what happened, but this month I have not been able to keep this boy full! Luke has three full meals, three good sized snacks, and breast feeds 3-4 times a day, some days I swear, all I do is feed him.
Luke's Typical Menu
Breakfast: Oatmeal with a fruit or veggie pouch mixed in or an egg
Snack: Half of a banana
Lunch: Leftovers or lunch meat with cheese
Snack: String cheese
Dinner: Sometimes what we eat, depending on if it is spicy or homemade baby food.
Snack: Puffs
This is a typical menu for one day, there are of course variations depending on what we have leftover. Lunch is hard, I am constantly racking my brain for new ideas so Luke doesn't get bored. Luke doesn't really like meat lately so I hide it in homemade baby food, I will steam chicken breasts with apple and sweet potatoes so I can sneak some meat in.
Last week was Luke's first Thanksgiving, it was such a fun day. We celebrated on the Sunday after Thanksgiving. We spent the day with family playing outside, watching Last Man Standing, and eating good food. Luke loved dinner, he had stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie, the kid was in heaven and slept like a rock when he went to bed.
It has been so cold here for the past week so we are really ready to go to Hawaii! Only six more days!
