11 Months :)

Dear Mia,

You are one month away from being a whole year old! I am so excited to celebrate such a special day. This post has been delayed because girly you have been keeping us busy. I'm actually typing this right now while you are napping next to me....about the only time that I'm not chasing you around.

Let's see...this past month you are picking up more new skills. You are now trying to snap...which is the cutest thing! You have also discovered that your finger fits perfectly up your nose. Daddy encourages this behavior, and you two will sit there copying each other with your fingers up your noses. Cute, but I'm sure you'll want to give that trick up in the near future.

Your best friend is officially your daddy. All he has to do is say hello, and it sends you into the biggest giggle fits. The first thing that you do when you wake up (if it happens to be after he leaves for work) is peak your little head around every corner you can find looking for him. It is seriously so adorable and makes my heart melt.

One of the funniest things that you have started doing is fake crying. We know it's fake because you make a crying noise while smiling...hahaha....so we aren't too convinced that you are miserable in those situations.

Some things that you don't like that much: men (you kind of get really nervous when strange guys are around you...not that strange guys are around you at home of course...I mean in public places), getting out of the bathtub, and actually that is about it.

You love: your Yo Gabba Gabba! bath toys, books of all kinds, being tickled, strawberries, and going outside.

You make each day full of JOY. Your laughs, smiles, fake baby cries, fits, fistfuls of food that you throw across the room...all give us so much JOY.

Love, 

Your Mommy and Daddy
