Eleven Months Old

I remember this time last year and how I was so miserable and I just wanted to have that baby and get it over with and "next July" seemed so far away! Charlotte seems so much bigger this month, she's getting so much more hair, she's getting quite a personality, and she's becoming a big handful as well! We had a big month for #11, we drove across 4 states, stayed at the beach, celebrated the 4th of July, got a cold, and learned how to throw a fit! So here is what the little missy has been up to in her own words...

I had a lot of fun this month, I especially enjoyed going to the beach and playing in the water and the sand.

I still don't know how to walk, but I want to learn. I get really frustrated trying to figure it out. I will stand up and hold a toy and try to take a step and then I fall and throw my toy and then I stand up and try it again!

I like to crawl all over the house now, especially the kitchen. Mommy doesn't understand why I like the kitchen so much, but it's my new favorite place to play.

I also like to play chase, it's my favorite game. I like it when Timothy chases me and I crawl as fast as I can into his room to play with his trains. His bedroom is my second new favorite place to play. He has a lot of fun toys.

I like to eat anything and everything, but I don't always like to have mommy and daddy cut it up for me. Sometimes, I like to try and hold a big piece and eat it all by myself. Mommy and daddy think I might be a little independant.

I like to make silly faces for the camera and I like to show off my teeth.

That's all there is for this month, but I've been told that next month is a big deal and there will be a big cake and lots of balloons!!!
