Julian was so excited about the KU Jayhawks winning the NCAA championship that he couldn't sit still for a photo. "Someday I will make shots like Mario Chalmers and be as tall as Cole Aldrich." (Hey, a boy can dream.)
Julian turns eleven months old on Monday. On the whole he is a happy little guy, though still frequently sick. His cruising is getting more death-defying; he has recently started walking along the coffee table using only one hand, while holding the other one in the air! Total walkage can't be far behind. We're still waiting on that first word, though his sound effects are getting more and more expressive. Also, sometimes he laughs. We think he's a pretty funny guy, which is fair enough, since he seems to think the same about us:
Which is not to say that he doesn't sometimes leave a trail of destruction wherever he goes.
He has a new music box, all Mozart all the time, which being the dancing fool he is, he's pretty fond of. (Thanks to Milo for tipping us off to this fabulous toy!)
Maybe too fond.
But sometimes he makes music all by himself!
And he's an excellent driver. We just upgraded his car seat to a larger, de luxe model, too, but sometimes nothing beats a dining room chair.
And sometimes when you're following Daddy around the house all day, you can't beat the old all-fours method of transportation.
We've got photos, too. He chats with Daddy and reads with Mommy!
"But Mommy, the underlying representational symbolism in the metaphoric subtext of 'I am a Bunny' necessitates a third reading!"
