Hadley, our sweetie, we can't believe that you will be 11 months old tomorrow! You are now standing, without anything to pull up on, cruising furniture a little, waving, doing "high fives," playing all sorts of games, and even saying just a few words. You have been saying "mama," and "dada," for a while now but, you now say "ball," and "up," adn daddy says you say, "Gus," our ever forgotten dog. You tried to say Grandma the last time she visited but it came out, "Bama." She'll take it! She will also take YOU! You have finally started going to other people a little but remain a mommy's girl. Definitely a mommy's girl. You still just have your bottom two teeth (cut those at 8 months), but have big blisters where your top two will surely pop through in a few days. You are a great eater, take one, occasionally two naps a day and wake up, on average four times a night to eat. You are close to taking your first step and are a very happy, healthy baby. You LOVE your baby dolls and are almost saying, "baby," too. We love you big girl. here are pictures of you over the last few months:
