11 months and mobile

The past month has gone by very fast and Jakob has made huge steps forward in his development. Due to rather cold and rainy weather he had lots of possibilities to practice his standing skills during May. The past few weeks were dominated by more or less successful attempts to walk. While our junior was rather stagerinbg at the beginning he has by now im proived to that extent that he is getting up on his own (without anything to hold on to) and walking for a fe meters sometimes with something in his hand, sometimes without.

Yummy! I love fresh fruit!

With regards to talking our sunshine has also made some moves, whereas he is only rarely blabbering and most of the times making animal sounds (tiger-like). Both Kerstin and Markus do understand Jakob by now (sometimes) but for anyone else it might me a mystery. Jakob has now also learned how te get on and off a sofa or bed without bumping his head (feet first!!) and is eating a lot of food which we could also eat (i. e. not pureed) like potatoes, carrots, turkey ham, melon, apple or strawberries.
