Yesterday came and went and I didn't get a chance to post, but Joaquin is now 11 months old. Only one month to go and he will be a year old. I cannot believe it. He changes so much all the time now. He definitely has crawling down pat, but his form is rather hilarious. He keeps both of his arms stiff and straight and only moves each knee about one-inch at a time. He looks like those dolls that crawl. I keep meaning to get video of it, because you never know how long it will last. Now that Joaquin can crawl he enjoys getting into everything...especially if it is NOT his toys. He also likes chasing the cats. As of right now, they tolerate him pretty well. Besides chasing our cats, Joaquin loves dancing to music. It reminds me so much of Detroit at that age. He does the exact same bounce that she used to do.
We are still working on sign language, and I am hoping that any day now he will pick up on "more" and maybe then he will stop screeching. He might have actually done the sign tonight, we will see what happens tomorrow. Knowing him, he will just combine the sign with the screech. He really enjoys being loud!
Joaquin is very happy and very social. Still working on that sleep thing, but I continue to hold out hope that one day soon he will actually fall asleep and stay asleep. (Right now he wakes up like 20 times during the night.) Oh well, I can't complain too much, because Joaquin really is a joy during the daylight hours.
