11 Months!

Seriously? Almost a year already?

We are absolutely loving watch Grace's personality shine lately! She's social, funny, and loves to be a part of everything. She has developed a fake laugh that she busts out when the grown-ups in the room are laughing and she wants to be a part of it. It's hilarious! 

She is cruising around furniture and can stand without holding on for a few seconds. 

She has four teeth! The first one poked through on her 10 month birthday, and the other 3 weren't far behind! She's a tough cookie, and the teeth didn't bother her very much. She had one rough night, and a couple days where she didn't want to eat much unless it was cold fruit, yogurt or applesauce, but overall she took it like a champ!

Her hair is getting long and her bangs are in her eyes, but I don't want to cut her hair yet! She looks adorable with a little clip holding her bangs to the side, but she's started trying to take the clips out. I haven't been able to get her to keep a headband on for months, but I thought we were doing good with the clips! 

Grace still loves fruit of any kind, and is starting to like green vegetables. She hated pureed peas with a passion, but she likes whole peas. Green beans are hit or miss - one day she'll gobble them up, another day she'll refuse to even put them in her mouth. She loves pasta, carrots, sweet potatoe, and berries. 

She loves books, blocks, puzzles, and is starting to use her walking toys a bit more. She loves music and dancing. 

She is imitating us all the time and it is so fun to hear her repeat words back to us! Recently she's said cat, dog, Murr (my sister), and duck. She talks/babbles constantly. 

Grace is wearing mostly 12-18 month size clothing, and just started wearing size 4 diapers. It is almost impossible to get her to keep her shoes and socks on when we're in the house or the car, but at least she knows to keep them on when we're out for a walk!

We enjoy every minute with our happy little chubster!
