11 Months Old
In less than a month you will be one...which is so crazy to think about. I swear it goes by so much faster the second time around. Probably because we never stop! What a little ham you are these days. You thrive on adventure. You are into it all and now are trying to climb the walls...literally. You love to get into every drawer, cabinet, shelf, etc...that you can find. You love to play with your brother. You favorite thing is when he comes into your room after you have woken up from a nap and plays in your bed with you. You also like to take baths with him too. If he has a cookie...then you think you need a cookie..it is hilarous. I already see the sibling rivalry thing coming out. If he is drinking out of a barney cup then not just any cup will do for you...you are becoming quite the observer. Mommy is missing you right now. You stayed at Me-Me's last night so we wouldn't have to wake you up to take your big brother to the hospital. You love being with your Me-Me and that makes me so very happy. You still are a picky eater. You won't eat meats, veggies (except sweet pototoes), real fruit, really any food with texture. You love cheerios, crackers, yogurt, baby food fruits, fruit puffs, ice cream, ice, juice, and water. I tried frozen grapes the other day and you would eat those but then suck out everything and spit out the peel. You do the same thing to fruit that is in your yogurt. You eat four bottles a day and couldn't live with out your pink blankie. You also get your pacificer while going to sleep or in the car. You wear 12-18 months and also a lot of 18-24 months. Your feet are so tiny..you still wear like a 2 or 3. You say Momma, Dadda, Nanna, bird, hi, no-no, and bath. Any time I say give mommy kisses you come at me with an open mouth and make the kissy noise as I call it. You also blow kisses and wave hi and bye to everyone. When Daddy gets home from work you get very excited and think he has to hold you right when you see him. You weigh 22 pounds and are still in the 75% for height and weight. I can't wait to turn your car seat around so you can see more of what is going on. We have decided to have a family/close friend party for you on June 2! This is the Sat. after you turn one. Of course "Princess" will be the theme and we can throw in a few swords for your brother so he doesn't have to dress up! You love to look outside. Puppies are your new fasination...really any animal in sight. Jackson never was the this way at this age but you don't act hesitant at all. You just can't stop touching them and squealing. I told Daddy the day will come before he knows it when you say "Daddy please please please can I have a puppy!" I just love this age you are at and am treasuring every moment. Love you! Mommy
