- sleeps without being swaddled. Finally. She is the only baby I know that insisted on being swaddled for 11 months.
- sleeps in a super cozy aden+anais sleeping bag on her side or on her belly with her butt in the air.
- makes it into Mommy's and Daddy's bed by morning without knowing how to climb out of her crib or walk.
- army crawls like a racer.
- traditional crawls a few steps before giving up and army crawling because she knows that is faster.
- flaps her arms in the air like a bird when she's happy. Or dancing.
- says "Mama","Dada", and "dog".
- loves feeding herself bananas.
- loves feeding Alex bananas. And crackers. And Poufs.
- drinks from a straw.
- loves swimming.
- talks a lot.
- giggles and laughs when Auntie does the HoeDown dance for her.
- loves swinging at the park.
- signs "milk".
- signs "more". Sometimes.
- hates getting diapered and pajama'ed at bedtime.
- 3 point stance and downward dog.
- grabs anything and everything with her octopus arms, regardless of the level of baby appropriateness.
- gives hugs.
- rubs Daddy's back.
- tries to pick Mommy's nose.
- says "Mmmm" when she eats her cereal.
- gets rocked to sleep each night because Mommy loves her special snuggle time with her.
- squeals with delight when Alex pays attention to her.
- charms all the boys at daycare.
- nurses in the morning and at bedtime. For now.
I could make a list that goes on and on; I am amazed by everything she does. Mostly, I am amazed by how fiercely I love her.
