11 Months Old

It is so hard to narrow the pictures down to fit on the blog...but here we go.

We tried out the splash pad in Providence and it wasn't too baby friendly like in Bountiful.  Maybe next year.

 She is cruising!  Especially if it ends with her getting a remote...

 Or mom's credit card.  She can balance for a few seconds by herself and I keep waiting for her to take off.

 She loves trying to put shoes on.  I know most kids like putting on their mom's high heels.  Well with me you get flip flops.

 She has mastered her stacking toys and thinks it is pretty cool.  We all clap every time she completes one.  She has stackable bath cups and i was so impressed one day at how she was figuring out which one goes where.  Of course I'm thinking "my child is brilliant!"  Then she continued to try and scoop water up with her hands and put it in her cups that have holes in the bottom.

 I have been babysitting for Jonas's boss (four kids) here and there so Hadley had a ton of fun playing with all of the kids and some "boy toys."

 And the tramp!  Perfect for a bouncing baby.

 We were playing on the love sacs one day and she was trying to get to me.

 But kept getting stuck.  Always making me laugh.

 Still sleeping funny.  She is down to one nap a day some days.  Which is fine if she still takes a long afternoon nap!

 Loves to climb everything!  Especially couches and army crawling over people.

 Hadley is getting a little mischievous...and doesn't like to be told no!  She would just kill to be able to rip up all of my magazines and suck on cords all day.

 Still digging the hiking backpack.

 As long as she can get her lean on to see where we are going.

 Always so dang happy!  Why can't the rest of us be like that?

 Is very intrigued by the swiffer.  

 Every day she looks a little less baby and a lot more little girl.  I love her little curls in her hair.

 A little obsessed with balls still.   We went to visit grandpa at work and she found the toys pretty quickly.

 Discovered drawers!  And loves pulling everything out.  But the good news is she also loves putting them back in.  (And of course this is much more fun at grandma's house.)

 She is very good at sharing.

 Until she decides she wants it to herself.

And, most importantly, she is learning new dance moves every day.

Which you could view if stinking Blogger would ever work.

Love this little goobs.  So excited for her first birthday!
