11 Months Old

This past month has been such a blast with Winnie, her personality is really coming out, and she is so funny. Constantly making us laugh and always keeping us on our toes with her adventurous spirit.



Age: 11 months old, weighs 20.10 lbs

Clothes: She is currently wearing 9-12 month clothes and fits into some 6 month onesies.  

in her big girl pj's
Favorite Foods: We give her almost everything we eat, with the exception of the obvious no no's for babies under 1 year. Recently, she loved French toast and last night scarfed down sautéed mushrooms without taking a breath.  I am so thankful she isn't picky and I hope it stays that way!! She is totally over baby cereal and applesauce mix... I think I gave it to her 1 too many times. Luckily she doesn't have to eat that bland stuff anymore. :)


Favorite Activity: Tossing/rolling balls, dancing, sitting in her chair, flipping through her books, looking out the window, and playing in her kiddie pool.  







Signature Moves: Her dance moves are my favorite. She bounces and shakes her head and twists her mid section while holding her arms by her waist. It is the best!! She has also learned how to clap and wave hi, bye, and "night night". 

Sweet moments: Calling her over to come see me or stretching out my arms and she walks to me and hugs me or turns and sits/leans against me. She is becoming more snuggly, which I LOVE!

Moms Proudest Moment: Mother's day celebration. Couldn't be a mom without Taylor & Winnie!


Dads Proudest Moment: Seeing Winnie choose to go sit down and read her books all by herself. :)


Other Milestones: She is very good at mimicking what you do and when we ask her to bring us a ball or to sit in her chair, she does it. 

Working on: Learning what she is not allowed to touch, i.e.: the fireplace, the internet box & dvd players, and [yanking on] the curtains. She obeys sometimes which we praise, but other times she doesn't. Thankfully, we are learning with her and it's all for our good! 

We're working on more signs. Winnie has mastered "all done" and we are teaching her "please". I love watching her learn. 

I have also discovered Winnie's FIRST freckle!!!! It's adorable and I love looking at it. Placed so perfectly on her belly. 

The following pictures are from a photo shoot Julie and I did with Winnie & Josh. These 2 are so ADORABLE!!!!! Funniest part was definitely us moms behind the scenes trying to snap pictures and get their attention and get them to smile. Oh the things we do. Haha!



One of our favorites.

i love her smile!




Have a great week!
