Growing!

Chloe Jane is HOW OLD?!?!?

11 months! Can't believe we are on the countdown to the big "1". Whoa!! She's more amazing each day and we are loving this new stage, as always.

She's saying 3 words: da-da, nigh-nigh, and hi

Weighs 17 lbs, 8 oz

Sleeping through the night about 6 of 7 nights of the week

Knows where her hair is and sometimes her nose

Had her second ear infection this month

First hair cut! Only the bangs but MUCH needed

When I ask where her poo-poo is, she pats her diaper

She knows how to bark like a doggie and usually meow like a kitty

Has taken up to 4 steps but still not walking

Starting to spit food out instead of eating everything like she used to

Makes the cutest "ahhhhhhh" noise after she drinks her water -- like she's truly refreshed

Naps about 4 hours a day.

Love frozen peas, Cheerios, pear, banana, and seasoned chicken

Our toys don't hold her attention for long anymore but she loves any of the non-toy toys that she can find: remote, iPhone, lids, Tupperware, dishwasher, straw, smashed food on the floor, string, my hairbrush, digging through my purse… you get the idea?

Jill has been so, so wonderful in helping with Chloe. She watches her 3 full days a week and a few evenings a month. It's so great to leave her with family and I always know she is in good hands. She teaches her great things and sends us lots of photos during the day. What a blessing!

First taste of ice cream!

Our little family

Merry Christmas from our house to yours!
