11 Months Old!!

Pictures we took on 4-20-12.  She's such a ham for the camera!

Sitting nicely at first. 





Now it's time to climb... it's boring sitting still.






Why hello Daddy!



Now it's time to be dangerous...

Belly flop!





Lots of new things this month.

She's a bit of a daredevil nowadays - her favorite place to crawl is to Olive.  Olive isn't a fan and Noelle has no clue... We spend a lot of time separating them, only to repeat five seconds later when she's crawled back to Olive.  She pulls up on everything and even stands without holding on to anything for 5-10 seconds.  A little bit of cruising on the furniture, but for now she prefers to crawl everywhere.  She also LOVES being outside and LOVES when we let her hang upside down anywhere.  She will actually fling herself back when we're holding her just to go upside down. 

She is sleeping SO MUCH better at night.  Typically, we have one waking between 3-5am.  The only way she goes back to sleep is if I nurse her, but she falls right back asleep and then is up for the day between 615-7am.  For now, we are happy with that and don't plan to get rid of that last feeding yet.  She takes two naps a day for 1-1.5 hours each.  And she's asleep for the night around 645 (in her own crib in the room she shares with Brady, though she does come into our room to sleep in the pack n play when she wakes to eat).  So happy about sleeping on so many fronts.

She got two new teeth this month - both on the bottom - so that brings the grand total to 8 teeth.

She is eating really well - she eats three meals and two snacks a day.  We haven't started to transition her to whole milk yet.  We'll probably wait until she's a year or so to do that.  She finally will eat yogurt and actually really likes it (when she's not blowing it out of her mouth like a raspberry and laughing hysterically). 

Although I don't think she has any actual words, she babbles gibberish a ton nowadays.  Lots of dadadada, yayaya, vavava, babababa etc.  She hardly says mamamama (go figure) but she is clearly trying to communicate what she wants.  She also waves now.
