Eleven Months Old

Madeline is 11 months old today, only one more month and we will have an one year old.....wow. One of her tricks is to say ow. Not ow because she got hurt, but rather when she pulls someone else's hair. I was driving (in San Diego) with Jake in the back with Madeline and I hear "ow Madeline that hurts."

Then I hear Madeline say "ow." Madeline says this as she pulls Jake's arm hair. We laughed too hard, she is becoming a little parrot by repeating things.



Another funny thing she says is uhh ohhh. She drops her toy while she is in the stroller and says "uh oh." Sometimes it comes out is "uh uh ohhh." Auntie Jenna and Grandma Donna helped her start that. It is so amazing how she absorbs everything we do and say.



I am slowly getting braver and letting her try more food. She only has 2 bottom teeth and 1 top tooth coming in, so chewing is still a process. I give her sweet potato puffs and she loves them. I started to give her gold fish crackers by breaking them up really tiny. She likes them too. I gave her a cup of sweet potato puffs and but in a tiny piece of a gold fish. She dumped the whole thing out and found the orange cracker. It amazed me because it was so tiny and she had the coordination to pick it up out of the bunch.



She is not walking yet, but is getting stronger everyday!!
