Well here it is..late but not quite on her first birthday.
This was taken just before she was 11 months for the christmas card, think i may have posted it before but she was not amused by the shenanigans!
at 11 months:
1. You sleep fairly well. Most nights are good..some are fussy.
2. You have one tooth….can i get a fanfare…you didnt make much of a big deal about it, a few grumbly sulky faces. But its there and no doubt awaiting its friends.
3. You have developed a frown. We see it quite a bit. Im not quite sure if its just a practice of facial muscles or actually 'im ticked of with you!' yet.
4. You like dried fruit of all kinds. Which is good…you.know….for the downstairs departments…*Ahem*
5. I think you may even recognise the infamous Cadbury purple *shame*
6. You are developing a fun game of 'wack the nearest sibling' They think its fun, i tell them it wont be when you are 2 and doing it…'cos it will hurt then….
7. This month you decided that the stationary life was loosing its attractiveness and you got on your hands and knees and got off. We have found you in a variety of places, i think you favourite is either turning out the washing from the basket or the recycling from the bucket. Happy times =)
8. Still Sleeping in the Nature Nest, I have checked and they take up to two year olds. It still works for you, it still works for us kwim?
9. You have the tiniest little feet. I have no idea what size your first shoe will be. Isaac found his first shoes when we were tidying up the loft and wondered to me if you could wear them. Nice idea but i think you might be about 2 by then!
10. You have already assaulted two 'other' children…for minding their own business and daring to pass you on a particularly grumpy day. We need to have a chat about 'getting on with others!'
11. You are starting to get a bit fussy about feeding yourself and then sometimes it seems like you just cant be bothered and you get stressed if we try to offer you the spoon for a bit of independence??
12. You had your first experience of snow this month. Awe and wonder and a bit of 'yeah okay..no fun being shoved in the snow' faces.
13. You love the rabbit..from a distance at least at the moment…think that will change. He is probably not looking forward to that!
14. You are growing up and your character is starting to show. I think we have some fun ahead of us.
15. You are a bit of cling-on..when people ask for a cuddle..i am now just saying 'you are welcome to, but she will scream!'
16. Your siblings love you, you are their live play-thing. Picking you up and moving you about like a piece on a chess board. Now, though im starting to wonder if its you that has covered that distance on your own steam or whether you have had a bit of help…
17. You take bottles when Mummy is at work..quite happily..praise the Lord!
18. Your words are still baby babble, including a delightful number where you click your jaw over and over again and make baby noises…okaaaay…
19. You are still not too keen on water or juice although Daddy gave you some thick grape juice at a party and you face said 'oh…my..what the heck is that..its gor-geous'
20. You still love the tub. Bath-time is fun and you can be cranky as and then bathtime comes along and you are so much happier.
Wow that scary number one is just round the corner
brb =)
