I blame technology for my shortcomings as a blogger, but thanks to my brand new macbook I have no more excuses for another 3 month lapse in posting! Let's do a not-so-quick recap: Noah turned ONE!! And we are now just about to the 14 month mark, but lets back up to 11 months:
At exactly 11 months (August 3rd, to be precise), I switched Noah completely to whole milk from his bottles. He refused the bottle for an entire week and a half, and I finally gave up and offered him milk. I had learned that the risk for milk allergy is almost entirely outgrown by 9-10 months of age, so my guilty conscience could rest easy :) Noah started taking one to two steps on his own just before 11 months, and just before 11 1/2 months he began walking everywhere! He never had much regard for the safety of his head, so we have had our fair share of bumps and bruises!
Papaw and Nana Schmith celebrated their 35th wedding anniversary on August 6th, and Renee and I left the kids at home to throw a party for our deserving mom and dad! This was the first time we have ever paid a sitter to watch Noah (aside from his daycare provider, Beth, of course)! We knew he was in good hands, so we were definitely able to enjoy our night out!
Enjoy some pictures from July and August! :) :)

I realized when uploading these pictures that someone should seriously reprimand me for not taking more pictures of my son!! I'll try to do better :)
