Henry is eleven months old!

Henry is changing so fast.

Three things about him of note these days: (1) He loves to be picked up and carried now, more than ever. He loves being in the backpack so much that I even let him eat back there sometimes (you can see the banana smeared on my shirt in the photo above). (2) He love rice cakes. It seems like an odd thing to love, but I think it must be a treat for him to have something so big and crunchy that he is allowed to eat all by himself. (3) He is no longer easily distractable. The day is long gone where I could just pick him up from whatever he was doing I didn't like (i.e. playing with the nightlight in Wavy's room) and put him somewhere new and he would forget about what he had been doing. Now he just turns around and heads right back to whatever he was doing. Which may be why he likes the backpack so much these days -- less conflict.
