Development of Kolby 11 month old

So fast, Kolby is 11 month old now. 1 month more and he will be 1 year old.

At 11 month old, he is doing well though he is rather small build compared to his peers. Remember he was sick for a week, after since then, he has become extra more sticky to me to the extent that I cannot be out of his sight. He used to be ok when I asked Charis or hubby to look after or play with him while I do housework. Now, NO WAY! He will crawl or move toward me if he hears that I ask Charis or hubby to come over to my side. Oh dear, I was so shocked when he did it. We experienced a few times with Charis, and he really fast hand fast leg crawl to me and hug me like a koala bear. Sometimes I wonder is it because I latch him always. Hubby said Kolby only recognize me as his milk machine, but I think Kolby simply love me too much~~

At 11 month old he can do quite a few things:

1. Kiss goodbye
2. Wave goodbye
3. Say mama, jiejie, baba, nehneh, bird bird
4. Listen to instruction like sit down and wait, Jiejie see you, baobao, hot hot, you cannot touch
5. Trying to walk
6. Coming over from bed or sofa with his legs first. No more from head. Haha

 Slowly I need to train him to eat more solid food and maybe formula milk. He is very interested in our food, sometimes I will give him a bit of bread, mashed potato, oatmeal, plain rice. He still like his sweet mashed pumpkin and sweet potato the most which usually he finish the full bowl. At now, he is still total breastfeed, but I was sick last week, and my supply did not recover since then. Still I believe if I latch him, I will have milk but I don’t pump enough during the day for him. Now he is drinking FBM and it is getting lesser. I am glad that I have diligently pumped during my maternity leaves and I have managed to save a freezer full for him. It is getting lesser packets, but I still hope that I can breastfeed him so long he wants.
