Hudson hit the 11 month mark this weekend! He still can't crawl, but scoots a little on his butt. He LOVES to stand and play. We are thinking he might skip crawling and got straight to walking (though I know it will be many months down the road.) I went to the bathroom the other day and left him playing by the coffee table. When I walked back in the room a few minutes later, he was standing up & leaning on the coffee table. Totally shocked me.
Hudson can now wave 'Hi' and 'Bye' and saying something that resembles the words. If you ask him what a lion says, he growls. He can also make a good monkey sound.
Here are a couple recent photos of the little dude.
