11 Months

Another month has already passed us by. I have enjoyed Addie's small size since it makes me feel like she is a baby even though she's getting closer to one years old. I think people look at me and think "Why are you giving that cracker/chip to your tiny baby?" or "Why would you let her crawl through the pool like that?" Even family makes comments to me like that and I have to remind them that she's almost one years old, even though she's tiny she thinks she big and can do things others think she can't quite yet.

So here's what she's been up to for the past month...

Right now whenever we put her in her highchair she's always trying to wiggle out. She's so small that she can jimmy herself out of our highchair or if we are at restaurants she can wiggle out of their seat-belts as well. I'm always really close because I'm afraid one of these days she's going to topple right out of it.

She still loves baby food. She starts begging for it once she sees me holding the container. She has a love for food that Cambree didn't have at her age. I just wish it would make her gain more weight because as of yesterday she was only 13.6 lbs.

Cambree and her play together a lot more than they use to. I love to see how they interact with each other.

Unfortunately Cambree thinks she can carry her around like a baby doll. It scares me every time she does it. I keep telling her she's not allowed to carry Addie around but being a little 3 year old she doesn't listen very well.

The other night we had family over and Carol was tickling Addie's naked body and it was amazing how still Addie stayed.She was in heaven, just laid in her arms ever so still. You can see on her face how wonderful it felt.

Addison is still struggling sleeping at night. She has both of her canine teeth coming through which makes for a long night for both of us. But during the day she is taking 2 naps both about 2 hours long and is happy otherwise.
