11 Months

Babies Elsie;

My my how you are growing up fast!! So fast I can barely keep up with you!! You are full of life, energy, and spunk!! Every day you develop new tricks and hit new milestones. You are a little talker!! You can say  "oh oh", "ho ho ho" (we say "what does Santa say" and you say "ho ho ho") , "dada", "mama", "nana", and "moo".  You are very into the "ohhh" right now, with your cute puckered lips! You are always jabbering away and it is so cute!! You have started to stand up on everything and you can now take steps with your little grocery cart. You have gotten so fast and crawling and let me tell you little girl, you are IN TO EVERYTHING!!! You are so curious and aware of your surrounding, you are always on the move from one thing to the next checking everything out. You love drawers and everything you shouldn't. You have no fear! We forgot to shut the gate to the stairs one day and you crawled right over to the very edge, turned around so your back was to the stairs and you started to just play... living on the edge! You are just a sweetheart and you are definitely aware of others around you and their feelings. If you think we are hurt you get so worried and concerned. You LOVE other little kids!! We go up to Savannah and Avery's once a week and it is by far your favorite thing!! Sometimes I feel bad that you are an only child right now, because you love having other kids around!! During church you love going around and playing with all the other kids. You are so social and love to be around other people. If we are somewhere and there are other people around, you will not go to bed, you know you are missing out on a party. You do so well in crowds and love to just be hanging out with everyone! And you will let anyone hold you which of course is so nice!! You are still really easy going and content, but you are starting to get more head strong and you are starting to get frustrated if you cant have something you want. You love to dance around to music, you move your arms around like little wings. You also love to clap all the time! When you get upset (especially when we change you) you will instantly calm down if we sing to you! You love to look at yourself in the mirror and look at pictures! I think it is one of your favorite things to do... you get so excited to see yourself! You will also "kiss the baby" if you see your reflection! You are excellent at drinking out of a sippy and love juice and water. We had to take you up to Primary childrens to get a VURL done. You had a really bad bladder infection and they wanted to check you out. You did so good, even during the VURL test!! You were so brave and did awesome!! You are such a good girl!! We could never tell you how much you mean to us baby girl!! We are so lucky and blessed to be your parents!! We hope you always stay as sweet as you are now and continue to be curious!! You are perfect in every way!! 
xoxo Mommy and Daddy
