Asserting ourselves

My baby is almost 11 months, but his adjusted age is barely 8.5 and he is super small for that so some of the things he does can seem so strange. For instance, he insists on watching everyone leave when they go to school or work. He doesn't talk or wave, but he will cry if he does not watch them pull out of the driveway.
Also, yesterday, he actually threw a fit in church. The bread tray came by for sacrament. We all ate some, but he is tiny so of course we just passed by him. When the bread tray left our row he squawked. Then he twisted, turned, bent in half backward and cried trying to follow the deacon down the aisle. Jared caught one who was passing and we got him some bread and peace was restored. We were laughing so hard (quietly, of course).
He is so tiny, but it is clear that he really wants to be a part of everything going on.
