11 Months Old

Imogen is 11 months old today and I cannot believe it. I know I must say that every month, but time has truly flown by. She is such a big girl and will be walking on her own before we know it! Let's go over some fun facts about Imogen at her 11 month birthday:

* She weighs a little over 19.5 pounds

* She wears 12 month clothing pretty well, but it's a tad big still

* Her hair has grown and filled in so much that we can almost do a ponytail

* She has 6 teeth

* She loves to point and talk at/about whatever she is pointing to. This is actually quite funny because she doesn't tuck her thumb in, so it looks like she's making an "L" or "loser" sign all the time!

* She took her first independent steps on April 10th, but has to-date take as many as four controlled steps in a row without sitting down

* She loves cruising furniture

* She is an amazingly fast crawler

* She babbles constantly, but besides "yes" and "ba ba" it's still her own little language

* She absolutely loves bathtime! The other day she put her face in the water twice. And she's brought the phrase "splish splash I was taking a bath" to a whole new level. I am also soaked at the end of one.

* She is eating babyfood much better, but is still working on solids

* She can feed herself Cheerios -- and should be their new spokesperson apparently (see picture...haha)

* She loves her Baby Einstein "My First Signs" DVD and we're hoping to teach them all to her!

Above all, she is just a busy little girl! We are enjoying her so much and relishing every minute of watching her grow up!

The above pictures are her with her favorite 'toy', the TV remote. Imogen and Tess, one of my parents' dogs, who she is very interested in now. And her with her favorite snack.

We wish this next month to go by slowly -- very slowly.
