IMG_2476 IMG_2473 IMG_2469 IMG_2468 IMG_2467Over the weekend my beauty hit 11 months.  It is hard to believe that my sweet girl is almost a year old.

Weight:  Still at a healthy 23 pounds so far

Height:  Not sure, gonna have to wait for her well check to find that one out

Eating:  Breakfast, she has oatmeal and some fruit.  Lunch and dinner she is pretty much eating what we eat now.  She is still having 3 bottles a day, but we are slowly starting to ween her off.  She loves her sippy cup, so I feel like the transition is going to be really easy on her and hard on me because I love giving her a bottle at night while reading to her.

Sleeping:  Oh my, I’ve been so blessed to have such a good sleeper!  We had a few hard nights at the cabin, I was not able to get in the room quiet enough and it woke her up and took her an hour each time to go back to sleep.  Other than that, she has still be sleeping through the night and still takes 2 naps a day.

Clothing:  As I’ve said all along, it really just depends on the brand.  Carters always seems to run smaller.  So 12 month clothing, but really we put her in 18 monthers because they seem more roomy.  When I buy clothing now I ALWAY’s buy it big.  Id rather her grow into it than out of it in a week lol.  I try putting shoes on her, as you might have noticed she is always barefoot.  Oh well, haha.  Can’t keep them on her.

Likes:  To climb on anything and everything!  I’ve moved glass shelves in my house, I have a baby gate up at the stairs . . . She is always putting her leg up trying to climb.  Craziness!  As you see in the last picture I took, she was upset because I was making her hold still and I wasn’t allowing her to climb up on the chair.  Still loves her baths, loves food, playing with Jay’s facial hair, feeding the dogs, clapping her hands, our phones, music, dancing, playing hid and seek with us, crawling, chasing the cats, mostly our fat one Sedona, screaming not in a bad way but just screaming to hear herself scream in our super echoey house.

Dislikes:  Being told No, when Mom makes her hold still, when Mom walks out of the room, and getting new teeth :(

Firsts/New Things:  She has actually taken a few steps on her own.  She isn’t walking yet, but Jay and I have been witness to her testing out steps.  She is close and I know it will be like when she started standing up, once she gets it, she is just going to get it.  Just the other day, she stood up on her own in the middle of the floor without holding onto anything.  She just popped up like it was nothing.  It’s amazing how fast she changes.  One morning it was like we woke up and she was just constantly babbling and since that morning she hasn’t stopped since.  It’s probably the cutest thing in the world listening to her sit and talk to herself, or talk to us.  She does say words to.  She has said uh oh, Mamma, Dadda, Dog, Cat, I swear I’ve heard her say Gamma and it also sounds like she has said Nanna.  It’s hard to understand her, but being around her 24/7 I get it haha.  Cuddles.  It’s the best thing EVER!  She started giving cuddles while I was up away at the cabin.  She has always cuddled, but this is different, she is doing it intentfully.  We say, “Give cuddles,” and she will hug us or the cat haha.  It’s the cutest thing ever!

Me, Jay and Randomness:  We had a hectic 8 days away from one another.  Jay had 3 weddings, all out of state, all in one week!  During that week, my parents decided to have a little vacation away just the 2 of them.  Since Jay was going to be gone anyways, I skipped town and got out of the heat early and went to spend a few days with them before they had to leave.  While they were gone Hiley and I had some really great one on one time with Grandad; and enjoyed the peacefulness of the forest.  They adore one another.  Oh, and I have to tell you, it was so cute, when my Mom came home Hiley actually crawled to her and started climbing up her leg so she would pick her up!  She was excited to see my Mom!  She has only done this with me and Jay, so it melted my heart, and my Mom’s, when she did this.

After a very long busy week being away from each other my Sister was nice enough to come over and watch Hiley so we could go on a date night.  Such a blessing!  It was so much fun and so needed to get out and spend time with just each other.  For the first time in a really long time, Jay and I had an entire weekend together and we spent it being totally lazy haha!  It was perfect and much needed.  I love doing life with him!  Raising a family with him, is seriously the best thing <3

We hope you all enjoy your week :)
