Lauren is 11 months old. It makes me want to cry and cheer all at the same time. She is an amazing baby and today was one of those special baby days. Just look at her!
Today was her very first day going to the gym daycare. She did great. I was a wreck....
Today was also her first attempt at jumping out of her crib. She stuck the landing (with her bottom).
Today she crouched down next to Keith and gave him a huge kiss on the cheek (sound effects and everything).
Today she made me sing rock-a-bye baby 63 times to her Baby GaGa.
Today she laid her head on my shoulder again and again and each time was like a special gift just for me.
Today she proved that she is a delight. I laugh out loud at her personality all day. Love her.
One of her favorite hobbies is "whatever Keith is doing." He's such a sweet brother. She loves sitting on his Star Wars blanket with him.
She's all about the accessories. Sunglasses, hats, headbands, purses, necklaces.... She knows how to tell you what she wants and she knows how to wear it!
She started squawking and screeching when she wants something. We are working on "please" and "thank you." She knows how to sign "please" it is just easier to squawk.
She loves dancing, singing, and clapping.
She loves seeing Kevin walk through the door from work and isn't satisfied until he has picked her up and loved her several times.
She gives high fives and loves kissing.
She still only has two teeth. She still isn't sleeping through the night.
She is wearing 12-18 month clothes and frequently picks out her own dresses (and definitely her own accessories for the day).
She lights up our house. The boys can hardly contain themselves when she sleeps later than they do. In fact their favorite way to start the morning is with her giving them a nice smack on the face to wake them up! Oh, she has a fast and heavy slapping hand! That's my girl!
