Pirate talk
Baby not so favs:
Nap time
Carrots 
Tummy time (sometimes he gets frustrated that he can't crawl)
Challenges: 
Teething - he has bit me a few times now :( luckily nothing major!
Making sure he doesn't roll off things as he moves around so much more now 
Funniest moment: 
Barfed, peed and pooped in the tub all in one night lol
Milestones: 
He is such a cool little guy.. I love getting to know him :) he is so sweet and funny. He is learning the word "no" which he looks stunned when I say it and then he smiles lol. 
He is a pro sitter and his back is so straight
I swear he said "daa" the other day but he does say "amumumum" when he's sad and it sounds like I want my mum ;)
He eats like a champ and tries to feed himself (which ends up everywhere) 
He wants to crawl and can move himself a bit but hasn't figured out how to coordinate.. I kind of hope he figures it out AFTER Christmas ;)

Foods:
Carrots (doesn't like at all but they weren't very sweet.. Will try again)
Pears (yum!)
Squash
Pumpkin
Apple
Banana
Sweet potato 

Firsts:
Tooth (Nov 8) bottom front left 
Second tooth (nov 20) bottom front right

Events in the past month:
We started baby aqua fit and stroller bootcamp. Dax likes the water so aqua fit has been a success. The first half of class baby goes in a floaty and we do exercises and pull them around. Second half is a baby swimming lesson. Stroller bootcamp is fun for me :) 

We had Dax's Christmas photos taken.. So happy with them! He was super happy in his pictures.. Unfortunately very drooly though lol but we photoshopped drool out. 

Cold and runny nose that has lasted a few weeks but still pretty happy baby through it all. Sucks when the whole family gets sick!!

We had family pictures taken as well. Trying to get miller and Dax to look at the camera at the same time was very challenging!! Lol but so worth it :) 

Other than that it has been play dates and walks :) we put on Sesame Street when he had his baby cold and he loved it!

Looking forward to: Christmas!!!
