11 Month Letter

Dear Aly,

Happy 11 Months Baby Baboosh!. Today is also Gr Gr Paul's birthday. You sat in his lap and had cake. You like everything we feed you. Sweet, sour, salty, we haven't tried spicy but I'm sure you would like it too. You are doing so well. You are finally able to push yourself to sitting from laying down. You are getting really close to crawling, you get up on your hands and knees and rock, but you haven't tried to move yet. You can stand with support and you are learning to move from sitting to standing, knees to stand and all kinds of transitions. These are very important things your physical therapist wants you to learn. You are talking a lot, but not saying any actual words. We think you are on the verge of figuring it out. You are doing well with Daddy at home and you are still taking two naps a day and sleeping from about 7 pm to 7 am with 1 or 2 wake-ups per night. You eat about two bottles of milk and then several baby food meals a day. You still wear 9 month clothing and size 3 diapers. On your last neurologist visit you weighed 16.9 pounds and you were just under 28 inches tall. You are always very happy in the mornings. You are very friendly and you suck your thumb whenever you are tired. No more binkies for you. We are trying to get you to start drinking from a sippy cup instead of a bottle. You go to physical and occupational therapy 2x a month, and your therapists love you and say you are one of their favorites. We can't believe in just another month you will be one year old. The time has flown by! You are a miracle baby girl. We are so happy we have you and we love you always and forever

Love,
Mama
