11 Month Update


As of yesterday, I have myself an 11 month old! It is so hard to believe. She is a walking, talking baby talking machine. She still has not said any true real words that I recognize but I have heard that babies usually will either be mobile and not talk for a while or vice versa so it looks like my child would rather walk around getting into everything rather than talking to us. I'm still waiting for the time she calls me "Mama" for the first time. I. will. die. She can practically run around now and I get my workout by chasing her around all day. Well, let's get on to the update! 




Just for the record, she will NOT look at me for pictures anymore! 








As of yesterday, I have myself an 11 month old! It is so hard to believe. She is a walking, talking baby talking machine. She still has not said any true real words that I recognize but I have heard that babies usually will either be mobile and not talk for a while or vice versa so it looks like my child would rather walk around getting into everything rather than talking to us. I'm still waiting for the time she calls me "Mama" for the first time. I. will. die. She can practically run around now and I get my workout by chasing her around all day. Well, let's get on to the update! 




Weight: 
I would say in the 18-19 lb range? Let's just say she gives my arms a good workout when I hold her for long periods! 





Health: 
She had her first high fever (102) three weeks ago and I was certain it had something to do with her upper teeth coming in but we still haven't seen a tooth poke through yet so that may have just been a little flu bug that she caught. Also, a few days ago she got her first diaper rash. Again, I don't know if it's her teeth or the cow milk is getting to her? 





Diet: 
A lot has changed since last month! I planned on nursing for one year but I want her to be weaned off by the time I start back to school at the end of August so when I talked to her doctor he said I could start Mid-July with weaning her onto cow milk (I didn't want to have to go through weaning her onto formula then right onto cow milk). She has developed a diaper rash a few days ago and I have to think it has to do with the cow milk so I called her doctor yesterday to see what I should do and he told me to keep giving her the milk like I have been doing that it's just her body getting used to drinking something different. 




Crying: 
She has days where she cries all day if I'm not holding her or in the same room and then other days she's in the best mood and could care less if I walk out of the room. Other than that she just plays and talks to herself most of the time! 

Crying because she wants to be outside  playing  the rain!


Sleep: 
She is finalllly on a sleep schedule! It only took 11 months but we finally have it down! She sleeps through the night from 9p-7a. She has 2-3 naps through the day also. We have all caught up on our sleep. 



Oh hi you cutie pie! 




Social: 
This past month we took our first vacation to the mountains in Virginia and had her first 4th of July. We have also been going to the pool every chance we get and of course hit up the mall when it's been a raining like cats and dogs. She's been quite the social butterfly this month! 






Routine: 
7a: Wake up, Nurse
8a: Breakfast
9a: Playtime
10a: Nap
11a: Nurse, Playtime
12p: Lunch
1p: Naptime
2p: Snack
3p: Playtime, Pooltime
4p: Nurse
5p: Dinner
6p: Playtime with Daddy
8p: Bathtime
9p: Bedtime







Milestones: 
Of course, the biggest milestone is walking like a champ!
