11 months old

Ainsley Rae, you are 11 months old. WoW!

To get pictures for this month I struggled had to be creative because this wiggly girl had much different plans. But alas, I rolled her onto her back and tickled her thigh just long enough to capture a few good belly laughs =)

 11 months and counting:
* probably weighs about 18 1/2lbs 
* finally moved into size 12 months clothes
* size 3 diapers comfortably
* 2 teeth on top, 2 on bottom
* wakes up 1-2 times a night to nurse still
* pretty good napper (its much harder I've found with 1 in school and a short errand running window in the morning to be as consistent with naps! Most days though she takes a good 1-2 hour nap at 9AM and then naps for 2-3 hours at 1PM.)
* eats finger foods for all 3 meals
* is getting a little more picky particular about her foods. She has favorites and lets you know it! We are still restricting her diet from wheat, egg, dairy and citrus. Recently I found some chocolate animal crackers that fit within these guidelines and Ainsley LOVES them! She digs through the diaper bag in the dining room to find the snack container with them then shakes and shakes trying to get them out. Occasionally I try to trick her and give her the cereal that is in the snack container....she is no fool though. She will push my hand with the cereal aside and reach in herself to grab a cookie ;-)
*Cruising machine!! Ainsley cruising along e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g including the walls. She is getting a little more confident and will take 1-2 steps on her own in between objects. She still sits down almost instantly when you let go of her hands.
* babbles quite a bit now. Ey-ya (Ella), da da, num num are the only ones she consistently says for the correct person/object though

We love you so much little peanut!!!
