averie girl you're almost a year old. in a few shorts weeks you will have one year under your belt and will start making your way into toddler hood. i know that i say this every month, but i honestly don't know where time is going. it seems like a couple months ago i was complaining about getting you outta my belly. and now you're almost a year old. crazy! just crazy!
our time of being together all day, every day, is quickly coming to a close. in fact, as i write this post you are currently at your second day of daycare. daycare! what the what? you are so not old enough to go to daycare. and further more if you're in daycare that means that i must be going back to work. in like a week. again, it's crazy! seriously blow your mind no effing way crazy.
eleven month highlights
~ you're our little copycat and such a chatter box. your current favourite is saying uh-oh. all the time.
~ you pull yourself up onto everything and you started furniture cruising. you'll be walking soon i'm sure.
~ went to the stampede for the first time
~ i started weaning you this month and you took 6-8 oz bottle of transition formula three times a day like a champ. almost ready for milk.
~ you're sleeping a little better, only waking once during the night (around midnight) for a bottle and then again in the early morning (between 5 and 6)
~ you weigh 18.2 pounds
~ you're wearing size 6-12 month clothing and in size three diapers
~ favourite toys are the fisher price little people farm and noah's ark, as well as the non-adopted ugly dolls from liam's birthday party. you love your handsome panther.
~ you've learned to blow kisses and say "mmmmuuuuaaaahhhhh" when you do it. i die.
~ went on your first road trip with stops in penticton, seattle and ocean shores.
~ moved into your "big girl" cow-moo-flage car seat, still rear facing though.
~ first time playing in skaha lake and loved splashing around in the water.
~ you ate sand for the first time, surprisingly you didn't do this when we were in hawaii.
~ still climbing the stairs, this is something we do over and over and over and over. all. day. long.
~ you've become a bit of a picky eater. some days she'll love something and the next she spits it out. but you love your fruit. all varieties. not so keen on the veggies.
~ you also love to throw your food on the ground when you're all done. this drives mommy batty.
~ you are starting to show your frustration when liam takes things away from you. it's good to see you already asserting yourself with your big brother. but you still love love love him and follow him everywhere.
