11 Months Old

Happy 11 months to my busy little bee!

I cannot believe you are officially one month away from turning a year old!! Time has definitely flown by.

You are into EVERYTHING!  You love playing in drawers, the refrigerator, Brody's water/food bowl and in the closet.

You still like to watch "The Goodnight Show."

And playing with Brody.

 

 You also love taking blocks and whatnot out of a storage container and placing it in back inside.

You've taken a few unaided steps by yourself, but you rather crawl.  You are one fast little booger!  You also love when I crawl with you.  You think it's hilarious!  Side note, you stand great unaided by yourself!

You're still drinking breastmilk, 4 bottles a day.  You'll drink a little water out of a straw.  Yes, you can drink from a straw; however, you hate drinking breastmilk out of it.  You spit it right out.  

You are eating 3 solid meals a day, but lately you've had zero interest in your lunch and dinner.  You take a couple of bites then spit it out or feed it to Brody. You will eat your breakfast without any trouble.  You LOVE fruit, especially strawberries! You also love fruit smoothies with spinach.

Your nap in the afternoon has become non-existent.  You will nap around 8am for a couple of hours, but when the afternoon rolls around, you want nothing to do with a nap.  We are trying to push your morning nap later, we've made it 11 am so far, since all you want to do is play in the afternoon.  However, you've become incredibly fussy by the end of the day because you are exhausted. I'm praying this will change. 

You know the word "No," but continue doing what you want to do.  When say, "no ma'am" you will stop, look at us and then go back to what you were doing.  When we say, "Where's Bro Bro" you will look for him.  You will randomly say "Mama" and "Bro Bro" yet no "Dada."  You mainly babble or squeal.  No real distinct words.  

You love to clap and wave.  You can also hold the phone up to your ear like your talking. So cute!

You are a little ham Miss Vivian.  I am so incredibly blessed to have you as my daughter.  Although you are exhausting, you are totally worth every second of everyday.  I wouldn't change it for the world!

I love you bunches little tater tot!!!
