Harper: 11 Months

In 6 days, this little love will be ONE!!! I can NOT believe it. Honestly, it makes me really sad. However, I am so thankful that I only have one more picture to take of Harper on her back. This is getting ridiculously hard. As you can see, the bow was eliminated. She can rip one off her head faster than you can blink. Poor piggy is barely in the picture, and we are on our 3rd onesie because I keep loosing them. Phewwww!

Now onto what my squishy baby love has been up to at 11 months:
  • She has become very vocal when she wants something. Notice I said vocal and not verbal. She grunts, yells, whines, and screams when she wants something.
  • She does sign "more" and "all done", but that's it. My sanity is begging for me to teach her more sign.
  • Doesn't care much for her bottles. She just wants "human" food. All. The. Time. She loves everything. Seriously, everything. If I had to choose a fav, it would be raspberries. She sometimes eats 2 cartons a day. She even seems to enjoy the healthy food as much as the not so healthy. Now you know why baby got back.
  • Loves to dance. Her newest move is turning round in circles until she's dizzy and falls down.
  • Will climb and onto anything with no fear, but is terrified to step down the tiniest ledge.
  • Has a very abnormal fear of inflatable pools even with no water in them???
  • Throughly enjoys waving "hello", and "goodbye".
  • Forget walking. We're onto running.
  • Speaking of walking, Harper is so bow-legged. It cracks me up to watch her walk around.
  • Sadly, I have no idea how many teeth she has. I just know it's a lot. 
  • Still sticking to her 2 naps a day, and a bedtime of 7:30-8.
  • Loves to snuggle up to me
  • Very into putting things in and taking things out. Makes for a messy house.
  • Still hates diaper/clothes changes. I imagine it's very similar to calf wrangling.
  • Gives lots of kisses. She puckers up, makes the kissy noise, and then goes in with a wide open mouth.
  • "pat-pats" her babies
  • Mostly wearing 12 months, and some 18 months, and have finally moved onto a size 3 shoe.
  • Outside is her favorite place to be. As soon as I say it, she is running towards the door.
  • is still mostly laid back and easy going. 
  • Completely adores her big sister, but is able to fight back when Presley gets rough with her. Homegirl can hold her own!
I can never write enough in these posts. Seriously, I could go on and on. I will probably come back and add to this at least 3 more times. 

Oh my sweet Harper girl, this year has gone by way too fast. Each month you have brought more fun, love, and laughter into our house. The next post I write you will officially be a toddler and not a baby. Although, I will only refer to you as "baby". We love you soooooooooo much, little one.
