Eve is Eleven Months Old!

Weight: 20 lbs on our scale at home -- which is about half a lb bigger than Ava Kate was at this age.

Clothes & Diapers: Size 3 diapers and 12 month outfits for the most part.

Eating & Sleeping:   Morning nap (about 8:30) and afternoon nap (about 12:30) for about 1.5-2 hours, bed time at 7:30 pm.  Eats meals with us, drinks three 6 oz bottles of milk a day (morning, lunch, and before dinner).

Mood:  Curious and giggly! :) I think she'll be a (sweet) force to be reckoned with!  She is LOUD. Haha!

Likes: Being in the water (pool or bath), exploring and moving around, playing with her toy kitchen stuff, being tickled, "reading books," dancing, giving kisses, eating

Dislikes: When there isn't more food on her plate immediately. -_-

Milestones: She blows kisses, waves, turns lights off, walks if you hold her hands, pulls up by herself if she holds your hands (still can't quite do it on the furniture yet), dances to music (it's precious), shakes her head no, understands what "no" means, and had her first cake and ice cream (& hotdog thanks to Grandmommy and Granddaddy, lol), oh and she got her first leg poppin' because she bit the mess out of my arm... and she has 8 teeth now!

Sentimental Things Mommy Wants to Remember: I love snuggling her, I feel like the baby stage has gone by so fast and I feel like I have missed it. :(  How will she already be one in a month!?!?! Ahhhh.

Practical Things Mommy Wants to Remember: Her first bottle is breastmilk and her second two are half breastmilk and half formula... I gave up stressing over it and it is what it is.  SO ready to be done with pumping.  I so enjoyed it with Ava Kate... but it has been a struggle and CHORE with Eve.  I can honestly say I have done EVERYTHING I could (including going through a flex sigmoidoscopy with no anesthesia) to breast feed this child.

She looks like a different child in these pics -- think it's the hair being pulled back in the 10 month photo.

Lawdy, Ava Kate was pale haha!  They look nothing alike in these two pics, but there are moments that Eve looks a lot like AK... BUT, she mostly looks just like her daddy. :)
