The Emerging Webbie

N's always had a great personality, but there's only so much personality to be seen in a newborn, 3 month old, 6 month old, etc. Well, at just shy of 11 months, it seems that Webbie has hit a "personality growth spurt". He's just full of all kinds of sounds, faces and opinions. Determination marks his face as he attempts new things. I'll (kindly) use the word intensity to describe his reaction to anything that he finds less than optimal.

A new awareness has also emerged. Anything signaling nap time or bed time is immediately met with scrambling to get out of our arms and a significant amount of screaming. Could we have a strong willed child on our hands!?!

This afternoon, while E was napping, N decided to borrow his trike. He can't even stand up on his own yet, but he was literally trying to crawl up on the seat! I think we are going to see a lot of "keeping up with the big brother" in this home.


(Yes, I know that E's name is revealed in the picture. I just couldn't refuse this photo! So much for security measures!)
