11 Months Old

Kirksey, you are 11 months old today! You are getting so big and changing so much every day. You are so much fun these days. Each month you are in our lives, it just gets better and better. This month it was more of a task to get your monthly picture, you are very busy.

You preferred to be standing up holding Panda than sitting happily beside him. 

You are still in size 3 diapers.

You wear 6-9 month and 9 month clothes.

You get into everything, even if I try to put it out of your reach. You are so persistant!

You are walking more and more each day. You have to concentrate hard when you are getting started. You almost always have something in your hands when walking. Here you have your 2 favorite "toys". 

You are a happy baby!

There are times where you will be playing by yourself or just sitting in your carseat and cracking yourself up. I love your laugh!

You walk slowly (which is fine by me, I know it won't last long), but if there is something you really want then you drop to the ground and take off crawling to get to it.

You also love Maci. You get so excited when you see him. I think he is getting more fond of you too, he doesn't hide as much as he used to. He will also let you pat on him (for a second).

This is your face when you are chasing after him.

You have been saying several words lately.

You say "uh oh, dow", which means "uh oh, it fell down". You will purposefully drop things so you can say it.

You say "bye bye bye bye" while waving both your hands. You do this when someone is leaving, when we are about to go in the car, and when your bath water is draining.

You say "helloowoo" with the phone to your ear.

You are absolutely precious!

You have 4 teeth now. I took this picture a few days ago so you can't see the second top tooth well, but it is definitely there.

You still nurse 5 times a day and eat 3 meals in your highchair.

You are a good eater and I hope you continue to like everything so much. You even eat your lima beans better than Daddy!

We have tried lots of things. Here is one of your first times eating spaghetti...and it was messy, this is why we take a bath every night now!

You brighten every day! You have such a sweet, loving personality. We love you so much and can't wait to share more fun moments with you!
