11 Months? Say What?

Yep, it's true. Shiloh turned 11 months old over the weekend. It hardly seems fathomable that she's almost a year old!

She's such a fun little thing. Loves sucking a wet rag and playing with her brother. They play "chase" and she screams at him. When she's had enough, however, she fusses at him or says "no-no," her favorite word these days.

Her vocabulary started with jabbering "mama," "dada" and "nana," although she doesn't really associate them with anyone. "Bye-bye" was the first real word (accompanied by a sweet wave of the left hand), with "uh-oh" starting soon after. She uses "no-no" if you do something she doesn't like or if she sees something she wants to play with, but knows is a prohibited item. She also recently started saying "thank you," although it sound more like "tah-too." My favorite new word is "bow," which she sings sweetly any time she sees Riley or Mama Kitty. :)

Along with sucking a rag, she loves to crawl around and investigate her world, pulling up on anything remotely stationary. Our prediction is she will be walking before she turns one...we'll see if that happens! Her favorite foods are yogurt, carrots, zipper peas and dumplings. Oh, and she loves cookies and suckers, just like her biggest brother!
