Many New Talents in His 10th Month

This last month Neli has been able to communicate and shares a lot. He is real aware of his surroundings and takes clues from the dog or from door sounds to know that mommy is home. When he hears her he drops everything and takes off pulling himself across the floor with his left forearm, dragging the rest of himself behind.
He is crusing around the house freely like a baby commando seal and likes to drag things with him as he goes.

He has an official first word - "ball". He also likes to say "daddy" and "doggy" which he get mixed up at times.

30 1/2 inches - 90th percentile
Head diameter 18 inches, he is "growing into his head"
20 lbs 13 oz - 60th percentile
His favorite part about going to the doctors is playing with the paper on the exam table.
