Sweet girl, you're now just 1 month shy of your 1st Birthday! How on earth did that happen??
The biggest change with you this month is your milk intake. I've started weaning you, and you're down to nursing 3 times a day - first thing in the morning, before afternoon nap, and before bedtime. You've handled it pretty well, and I'm grateful for that. In the next week or so I'm going to start giving you a bottle in the middle of the day, too, in preparation to have you fully weaned and on whole milk when by your birthday. Feeling a little sad about this, but I know it has to be done! :)
You've started standing on your own a lot, and taken a few small steps here and there. I'm sure you'll take off any day now, it's just a matter of time. You're very proud of your new skill, too! I've even watched you stand up in the middle of the room a few times lately. Such a big girl!! And really, by 'big' I mean little because you're pint size when you stand up! You seriously look waaaaaay too little to be standing/walking!
I think you're about 19 pounds, still a little shorty though! And finally in some 12 month clothes.
You cut your 7th tooth on your 11 month birthday!
You and I have really enjoyed our girl time on Tuesdays and Thursday while Carter is at school. We do lots of playing upstairs, crawling in the tunnel, wallering on the bed, the couch, or in the giant bean bag {probably your favorite thing to do right now!} and just enjoying each other! I'm very thankful for alone time with my girl. :)
You have said two more distinct words recently; "dog" and "baby" ..... although not clear as day, definitely clear enough for me to know what you're trying to say! So you have 5 words now - Mama, Dada, bye, dog, and baby. I'm pretty sure those were Carter's first several words as well.
You still love to dance, wave, show us your tongue, and wink. Those are your most favorite "tricks"
Sweet 11 month old baby girl!
Really cheesin' it up for me!!
On the move, standing on the couch....
.....and hanging over the side.
Blue eyes!
Get this bow off my head, please.
Precious girl
Love at me Momma!! So big!
It's such a pleasure to watch you grow, learn, and discover each and every day. I definitely have some bittersweet feelings about your birthday coming up, but I'm looking forward to it, too! Love you baby girl, so so much!!
