Lila Grace is 11 Months Old!!!









Since Lila's 1st birthday celebration is quickly approaching, I need to sneak in the last monthly milestone post before her special day! Can I just say...WOW!!! How is it possible that our sweet pumpkin is about to be ONE??? Here's what Lila Grace has been accomplishing as she counts down to the big event.

~She's ever so close to walking! Has taken 4-5 steps at a time, but not consistently. She really doesn't care for falling & still prefers crawling to taking wobbly steps.
~Lila loves to "ROAR"! Apparently, there's a lot of roaring that goes on with a big brother, so she's picked that up pretty quickly. :) She can also make an elephant noise while lifting her arm to her nose when prompted. Adorable!
~She has 8 teeth. 4 on top & 4 on bottom.
~She transitioned to whole milk beautifully & is a pro at drinking all of her liquids from a sippy cup. No more buying pricey formula...woohoo!!!
~Lila Grace loves table food. Bananas, yogurt, oatmeal & banana pudding top her list of favorites, but she also really likes string cheese, lunch meat, strawberries, Fig Newtons, eggs, waffles, bread & apples.
~She says "Mama", "Papa", "La-La" (Lila), "Dy" (Cy), "bye-bye", "boo" & "more"...along with lots of babbling.
~She can point out Mama's eyes, nose & mouth. And points to anything that she wants or wants me to tell her the name of.
~Our baby girl loves to be held upside-down or even better to be swung backwards then brought back up. She's also a big fan of crawling through, under, over & around our dining room table & chairs.
~She's great at following simple commands & constantly mimics what Cy is doing.
~Lila may be our strong willed child. She likes to touch her brothers eyes, nose & mouth while he's on the floor getting his diaper changed & isn't deterred by other distractions, a stern "No" from Mama or often even a slap on the hand. What a stinker!
~She loves to play pat-a-cake & peek-a-boo.
