11 Months!

P is now 11 months old! "They" say time flies with kids...and it's so true. Last year at this time I was pregnant and in the hospital with kidney stones...I still can remember all too well that- throw me to the ground, let me vomit all over you from the pain-PAIN. Anyway, just wanted to say a bit of what my little miss is doing these days.


She's still cruising/running along furniture and has all the muscles to walk but just doesn't have the confidence yet. She's taken 3-4 steps many many times but then sits down and crawls. Surprisingly, I am very OK with her not walking yet.


She's eating so much better these days. She's also semi-mastered the sippy cup but still doesn't like drinking anything out of an open cup unless she's in the bathtub.


She's into pretend play and loves to mimic me. She "feeds" her baby milk and pours "tea" from her tea pot to her tea cups. It's just so cute! She also LOVES to read.

Talking on the phone:

She's also trying to talk. She says mama, dada, dog, duck, night-night, has said yes twice, and my favorite: NO-NO. I swear she didn't learn it from us telling her no, but from us telling Indy no a billion times a day. Poor dog.

We've also started story time at our local library. She absolutely LOVES it. She could sit there for hours reading and listening to stories...she's just like her daddy!

ETA: I forgot to mention that she has also learned some of her body parts! She can point to her nose and ears and pats her belly when asked where they are. She'll even point to our noses if asked, "Where is mama's/dada's nose?" She's growing up too fast!!
