eleven.

our sweet girl is 11 months old now! still as fun as ever. currently, her favorite "toys" are dvd's, the xbox, and mama's keys. it's pretty rare to see her play with her own toys. when she does, she has learned to put things in and out of containers and is trying to play with things the right way instead of just chewing on them. we went to the doctor a few days ago, and hadleigh weighed in at 22 pounds, 6 ounces! wow. she is definitely not our little girl anymore... she is still wearing 6-12 month clothes only because it's still cold, and i can't bring myself to buy any bigger winter clothes! the second it gets warm out, we're upgrading to the 12-18 month size. she has 6 teeth now (she got 3 new ones within a 2 day span -- poor kid!). now that she has all those teeth, she has started to do a big, cheesy grin which is too cute. she's down to 2-3 bottles a day and eating lots of solid foods. favorites include peaches, lima beans, chicken nuggets, and gerber yogurt bites. she is still cruising along furniture and occassionally letting go and standing for seconds at a time without holding on. her interest in sonny comes and goes... when she does play with him, it's hilarious. she grabs his nose and ears and just laughs and laughs. he takes it well though. she's learned to wave the right way, claps all the time, shakes her head "no" (but never yes!), says hi/dada/mama/baba (which means bottle and bye-bye), and dances all the time. it is HILARIOUS. she throws her right hand up in the air, shakes her booty, and bounces up and down on her tiptoes. love it. we are currently in the process of planning her 1st birthday party -- i can't believe she's almost 1!!
