11 months

Today is my beautiful Ellie Reese's 11 month birthday!

I cannot believe that in one short month she will be 1!

I look at other babies that are one and they look older than her to me.

She still looks like such a baby to me.

I guess that she didn't want me to think she was growing up too fast so just for me she woke up 5 times last night! I know! Just like a newborn...thanks Miss L!

We have started planning her birthday party and it going to be SO cute.

It is going to be a Tea Party!

Now we only have a few weeks to get ready for it.

Here are some things we don't want to forget about you at 11 months

* Your obsession with Jack. If you are fussy it always makes you so happy to go and visit Jack.

The other day she was in the mud room where Jacks pen is and she was just laughing. I walked in there and she had undone Jack's pen and they were playing on the floor. Ahh!

*The way you are so interested in your surroundings. You want to know about everything that is going on!

* How you have learned to open cabinets and drawers...oh what a mess you can make!

* How soft your sweet cheeks are when I kiss them. I could just eat them up!

* The oh so sweet rolls on your arms! Now that she is wearing more short sleeves I love seeing her chunky little arms.

* Your love for the outdoors. I think you could eat, sleep and play outside every single day!

* The way you have started to talk so much. She is not so much babbling instead now its sounds like she is really talking. We just have now figured out your language yet!

She does say Dada, Gac( Jack), Yay, Uh oh, Mmm, and Mama.

* The way you are learning to walk! She is doing so good at taking steps. She is still very cautious though. She would rather crawl though because she know she can get there faster ( and safer) by crawling.

* Your sweet and oh so beautiful smile. It just melts my heart everytime I see it!

I love you to the moon and back sweet little girl!
