11 Months


Current Stats - 27" tall, 18 lbs, and head 43.5 cm

10 month stats - 26"tall, 18 lbs, and head 43 cm

Alice is now 11 months old.  This month, she has learned to crawl on her hands and knees, got two more teeth (the top middle teeth), and has learned to pull herself up on everything.  

She learned to open cupboards and drawers, and one of her favorite activities is to empty her clothes and diaper baskets, and the tupperware cupboards.  We lowered her crib and she is struggling to go to bed more because it is just too hard to sleep in the standing position.

She has learned that if she drops her food from the table, Bella will eat it.  And Bella has determined that Alice is the best bet to get a tasty treat.  She loves food and sausage is definitly a favorite.  She is also a big fan of grapefruit and icecream.  She eats what we eat, and basically she expect us to share whenever we are eating something. 

She has now signs milk, please, more, and occasionally potty and water.  I think the signing is really starting to sink in.  She still loves to play with remotes and cell phones, and now she also loves books and balls. 

Her hair is down to her nose, so it ends up in a pony tail on top of her head most days.  I still love the bow on the side, but she prefers to pull it out and eat it. 

It is so fun to see her find a new face or sound that she can do and her eyes just light up when she does it.  Some of these more recent discoveries are that her tounge, she looks like a panting dog all the time.  Her teeth make a pleasant sound when she grinds them together, and she will sometimes get stiff and make this straining sound like she is constipated.  She then smiles and does it again.  It is hilarious.  She also loves to clap whenever she does something good or we say YAY! 



My baby is just growing up before my eyes.
