I initially preferred to pull myself around on my belly, often using both arms at once and sometimes reciprocating them while pushing with both feet, but at about 10 1/2 months I decided it was much more efficient to move on my hands and knees.
A favorite spot for me to motor to is M & E's kitchen, where I love to pull all of their dishes off of the shelves. They make a lovely noise on the tile floor too!
I am a huge chatter and enjoy putting a play phone or anything remotely close up to my ear... 
I also continue to love being wherever my sisters are, even if this means they require me to partake in their make-believe play and have me wear their pink slippers. Also note the very large drool spot on my shirt...I finally have one bottom tooth through with another one clearly on its way. 
I have become a bit more vocal in expressing my wants and needs. I love to be carried around and point to things, but then also want to be able to hold and explore them (hmmm, thanks Grandpa Ken for this one!). I used to be content to wait for my sisters to have their bath at night from Papa and then join in for bedtime stories. However, this progressed to my preferring to be in the bathroom while they received their bath, happily standing at the ledge...which eventually led to my desire (demand) to be in the bathtub with them every night. If Mama walked by the bathroom with me while they were in there, I immediately pitched a fit! This actually has turned into a much more efficient way to bathe all 3 of us, so I guess I can say I know what is best.
Maybe the best thing ever, though (especially in Papa and Mama's opinion), is my love to give lots of love in the form of kisses! If I see someone kissing, hear the word kiss, smooch, love, or something along those lines, I immediately pucker up. Check this out...
Now that is what I call irresistible!!!
Love, Theodore
