11 Months



I can't believe my little munchkin is almost a year old! Crazy! 

At 11 months she: 

- Is the sweetest little munchkin! Hardly ever cries and has taken it upon herself to start slowly giving up the bink!
- Has the most amazing hair! She definitely got this from her dad, I was completely bald at this age.

- Says three words and knows what they mean and who they are. Her first word was "puppa" (puppy, you can tell who her favorite is), followed by "dada" and "mama".

- Sleeps like a champ. Still sleeps 12+ hours each night and has finally gotten into a schedule of two 2 hour naps a day. 

- Loves to talk to Grandma Majors on the phone! She shakes with excitment and waves to the phone the whole time. 

- Loves to brush her teeth!

- Is a picky picky picky eater! Like many other babies I have heard about lately, she will love something one day and refuse it the next. 


- Snorts when she laughs!

- Has just barely, like in the last few days, started army crawling. She has always gotten up on her hands and knees but still has not put that together with moving forward. 

- Sits up and stands up on her own! I still have yet to find her standing in her crib but she stands at the couch all the time.  

- Will not walk even when holding on to our hands.  She just starts to fuss and sits down. 

- Loves other kids and is a great sharer!


- Loves the iPad! It is for sure her favorite toy!

- Will not wear shoes. No matter how baby proof I think they are, she finds a way to get them off. 

- Loves to be in the shopping cart!

- Loves to clap, give fives and wave.

- Loves Rodizio Brazilian Grill! Freaks out when we walk in the door.

- Loves her puppy! He has finally come around to her being a part of the family and gives her sweet kisses!


- Still hates the car!

- Still loves her bumbo!

- Still suffers from neck spasms on a regular basis and has had to visit the physical therapist, chiropractor and ophthalmologist. At a year, we will most likely be sent to a neurologist at Primary Childrens. 

- Has started to really like cows milk (as long as it is warm). 

- Is still a champ nurser!

- Wears size 3 diapers.

- Wears 9-12 month clothes.


We adore our munchkin!

I adore her too! I LOVE that little face of hers. It makes me sad that I have never met her in real life! Good luck with the neck thing, I'll be praying for you guys.
