11 Months Old

Today marks Maddie's 11 month birthday. . . .you know what that means?!?!?!?!? Next month she will be 1 already! It hardly seems possible! At 11 months old she has a good idea of what she wants and what she doesn't want. It is so much fun to see her little personality start to really shine through.
Not much has changed since my 10 month update. . .but there are a few things.
Likes at 11months:
**Still #1 - EATING! I have to make sure to feed her some baby food before she sees "adult food" otherwise she has her mind set on eating whatever Pat or I have!
**Walking along all of the funiture as well as taking a good 8-10 steps on her own. She is very brave! She will let go and take off thinking she is superwoman. Of course she tumbles quite often, but what can you expect?

**Her new thing is pointing at everything! We notice that she likes to point her little finger up her nose! She is just wanting to explore!
**Shoes. . . she loves to go find our shoes and play with them
Dislikes at 11 months:
**Naps - does that sound familiar? This is a continuous work in progress

**Winter coat and hat. . . .we always win this battle, but she does put up a good fight!

This past week was a busy week here as we had a lot going on! With January being so busy I managed to work about 32 hours. Gosh, I hate to complain over 32 hours when I used to do 50, but things are much different now. Pat was out of town last week for work, so keeping up with things around the house, working, and taking care of her kept me hopping! At least I had the moms to help me out which is a huge relief! **Thanks moms** Overall we had a good week and weekend though, so no complaints!! We heard that Maddie will be getting a new playmate at the end of summer which is exciting! It is so fun to have friends having kids! We spent a lot of time playing and enjoying the rest of our weekend!


I love the expression on her face! "Mom, really? I am trying to eat!"




Playdate w/ Maddie's friends Keegan and Ella! Doesn't it look like they are having a serious conversation?


Who needs toys when you have a diaper bag to play with?






They sure love their puffs!





Too much playing = 1 tired baby!



Pat's new way of keeping Maddie's hands out of her diaper while she is getting changed. . . . .using her shirt like a straight jacket!

More fun things to report later this week!
