Happy 11 Month, Luciana Elisabeth

Month 10 was oh so good to us!  Every day just gets better and better.  Chad and I are always telling each other how lucky we are.  We are so lucky.  So happy.

Here are your stats from month 10 spunky girl...
  • You are right around 18.5 and 19 pounds
  • You are in size 3 diapers
  • You are wearing 9 month and 12-18 month clothing
  • You are such a good little sleeper and have done really well this month.  We are on a break from teeth.
  • You still take 2, 2 hour naps during the day
  • You have to have your soft blankie and your thumb when you sleep.
  • We are still nursing exclusively when I am home.  At the first of the year you went 3 days wanting nothing to do with me : ( aka - you were bitting me and doing everything you could to get away from me!  We stuck with it though and we are back on track.  I know that you are going to have to break ties with the nursing thing because I could keep going :)  I am savoring every last second of "our time" together
  • You are a mad woman when crawling and can get up a flight of stairs in a nano second.  You think this is a very fun game of chase.
  • The last week of month 10 you took more interest in walking.  You take anywhere from 3-7 steps on your own.  It is so stinking cute!
  • You dance and you dance and you dance.  Any time you hear music your head starts to nod and if you're standing your legs begin some crazy plies.
  • You started really saying mama over Christmas break. Love.
  • When you say papa, you say it in a whisper.  In the morning when I finish feeding you the first thing you say is "papa".  You love your daddy.
  • You have started making the home alone face.  Your facial expressions crack us up.
  • You will not take food off of a spoon.  I would say that you are pretty much on all table food.  Good thing you are a great little eater.  It is fun having you try new foods and love them.
  • You learned to drink from a straw
  • You have 5 teeth and your second fang has popped through
  • You LOVE your baby dolls and can kiss, hug and pat their backs
  • You like playing with all of your new toys you received at Christmas
  • You still throw fits when we change your diaper, put clothes on and need to put you in your carseat.  You have an attitude.  Is this normal at 1?! 
  • You celebrated your first Christmas and it was perfect
  • You went to your first basketball game and couldn't take your eyes off of Eli
  • We spent our first night away from you for your dad's 30th birthday.  You had fun with Gaga, Pop and your cousins.
  • You spend New Years in Chicago with your buddy Wes
  • You started swim lessons and are having a blast in the water.  We are learning to blow bubbles and not drink the pool :)
I am now in full party planning mode :)  We can't wait to celebrate your 1st year.  To say it has gone by quickly would be an understatement.  Love you Lu!
