Tiny Dancer {Eleven Months}

Our sweet girl is 11 Months already! 

Evie, you are talking up a storm lately. And not just talking- you like to do lots of screeching and yelling, too. :) Not always our favorite, but pretty funny at times. 

You still love, love to read, and we finally figured out that you've been saying "book" for some time now! Only you say "gook" or "gwack". And you say it a lot! Our girl will be a reader and so smart.

Some other words you've added: hat, eye, walk and MAMA! Yes, you said that a long, long time ago, but after about a week you stopped saying it completely. Now you say it all the time! Especially in the middle of the night when your teeth hurt or when you're tired. My girl.

You're still not walking quite yet, but you do love to walk all over the place holding our fingers or with your little push car toy. I've actually seen you take a step on an occasion or two, but we're still waiting for you to surprise us and take off across the room. 

 At the beginning of this month you started sleeping through the night! HUGE!

All was going swimmingly until we hit a rough teething patch a week or two ago. The past few days have been the worst. :( You've had a fever off and on have just not been feeling great. It makes me sad to see you not feeling well, but I admit, I do love the extra cuddles! Hopefully it will pass soon.

And I don't know if it's just because of the teething, but you have been taking looong morning naps for me! Today it was 3 hours! I think you might be having a little growth spurt, too.

You have always liked to laugh- fake and real- but recently you've taken it to a whole new level. It just cracks us up when you think something is funny and start laughing and laughing. Sometimes you'll just start laughing out of the blue and we have no idea why! You're a happy girl.

You still love to cuddle and kiss all of your toys, books, pictures, etc. I hope you always stay so sweet and loving!

I really can't believe you have been with us for nearly a year. Life has changed SO much, and I wouldn't change it for the world. Evie, you are such a light and joy in our lives and we thank Jesus for you every day!
