11 months old!

Can you believe it!! In one month I'll be a year old!! Mom and Dad can't believe it. I figured I would do a quick update on me...

I'm getting better and better at walking everyday - still can't officially walk on my own but I can walk holding on with just one hand (while the other one flails in the air helping me balance :). I can also cruise along just about anything - walls, cabinets, dogs... and I'm practically running behind my push toy! I can pretty much make my way all around the house one way or another and I just love it! When I can't get there on foot I prefer the belly pull to crawling. I'm really just as quick and I can help my mom with the sweeping this way (as in my shirts and pants fill in for the broom :). Makes for a few more clothes washings but I don't mind a bit! (m&d might feel different here..)

Still only 2 teeth but I can eat lots of stuff - grapes, peaches, dried fruit, all sorts of veggies, pasta, meatballs, sausage, cheese, yogurt, and veggie booty are a few of my favorites. One thing I've decided I don't like any more is avocados... used to love them but no so much anymore - what can I say, may tastes have matured. Maybe if mom starts giving me some yummy guacamole I'll give it another try.. we'll see!

Much to my mom's dismay - I love to play with dolls. I have some at school that I play with all the time and at home I have one that my Yiayia made for me which I love to have with me when I go to sleep and wake up in the morning. She's soooo cute! Generally I like to pick them up, drop them on the ground, pick them up again and give them a nice hug and pat on the back.

I also love to play with any toys that I can bang together, pull apart or put into something (then take it back out). I especially like to put things into my push toy, push them around then take them out somewhere else. This makes for a fun game for my parents as well! Anything that I can make music with I love as well - it's fun to play along with my dad as he plays guitar! (and so far I'm showing signs of having more rhythm than my mom - whew :).
