eleven months?

whaaat?! 335 days? give or take oneish.

the last eleven months has gone by faster than the last three years. so it seems. i was trying to recall memories of this last {almost} year and am so thankful that i have oodles of pictures to help capture what has seemed hard to remember. does this just happen with the more kids you have?

we're finding she's not much of an independent player. she loves following big sister around - but then easily gets agitated by her. sisterly rivalry already? she crawls to find me in the house and then plops herself right at my feet. and just sits. it's really cute. however, in just the last few days, i watch as she crawls to her room to play by herself for about ten minutes. she must just need that me-time in her hectic little life. all that eating and diaper changing is a bit much. a little stressful to her daily schedule. *wink.

she has so much to say. a few of the words that we can interpret are:
jessa, all done, dada, mama, amen, hi, and singing to the elmo's world song.

other talents:
pulling up and cruising around furniture.
waving.
dancing.
finally taking to a bottle and sippy-cup.
sleeping through the night. however, even though she gives us a glorious twelve hours most nights, no matter what time she goes to bed, she wakes up anywhere between 4:45 am to 6 am every morning. i'll just happily take what i can get, as i stumble out of bed in the morning darkness. ugh.

some of my favorites from the past month:
a very stressful life, people. especially while getting two bottom teeth.
