11 MoNThS!
17 lbs. 3 oz.
28 inches
walks and crawls
always starts by trying to walk
has 5 teeth (got the UL lateral at the very end of the month)
can drink through a straw (started actually yesterday, 2-23)
says uh-oh, mama, dada, baba, mmmm, and makes several other noises
leaves her bows in most of the time
naps 2-3 times a day (skipping the 4;30 pm nap more and more)
eats all fruits, and will tolerate some veggies mixed in
started walking more than one or two steps on 2-12-12
can get to the standing position in the middle of a room
is learning she can get down steps if there is one or two (which made this photo shoot very hard!)
still under the 5% for weight and we are still on close watch with the specialist
is very close to being able to climb up on the ottoman
favorite activity is unloading all of my cabinets as they are still not child proof
gets up once or twice at night (usually at 4:30)
up around 7 for the morning
down for bed around 7:30
can bend over and pick things up while standing without falling, but usually stays down once she gets whatever she dropped or wants
has learned if she raises her arms and goes limp it makes it hard to pick her up and remove her from whatever naughty thing she is doing
her hair is getting thicker and often has big rooster curls on top of her head
her eyes and hair are very dark, which I LoVe!
she has a sixth sense for when the gate at the stairs is down and loves to speed crawl up the stairs and laughs as she sees you coming to chase her
she has been found several times fishing in the toilet!
another favorite place to play is on the treadmill (part of the up and down of the raised surface excites her)
also loves playing in my bathroom drawers
she has split her frenum 4 times now (3 times from falling trying to walk)
she really loves her mommy and is such a sweet baby
one month and I have a ONE year old! Doesn't seem possible!
