Carter - 11 months

I can't believe our Carter-girl is now 11 months old! Where has the time gone?!?!? Things have been all about Blair lately on this blog, so I just felt like I needed to do a quick post about our precious little baby.

Carter is growing up so fast these days. She is one happy and spunky little girl. She is SO different than her sister was at this age, and Lord does it keep me on the go! She loves to crawl on the fireplace, try to crawl up the stairs, try to pull the lamp off the table, and even get into the wine cabinet. Blair never even knew any of that existed ;) And you can't even make bath time up. Both girls get in at the same time, and the entire time Carter tries to crawl out of the tub, dunks her head under the running faucet, and splashes Blair with water until the point that Blair is in tears. It's quite a sight!  With all that being said, we just love her to death. She is a VERY good eater, and we are still working on our sippy cup transition.   She is still a very good sleeper at night, and right now we are in a good nap routine. I am sure that will change shortly as she begins to grow out of her morning nap.  Carter loves for me to sing the itsy bitsy spider, and she LOVES any books by Karen Katz. If she sees one, she will go straight to it. I guess she is picky about her authors ;) She is getting better about her words and right now she can say Mama, Dada, uh-oh, stinky, yay, and touchdown. I may have heard shoes the other day, but I can't be certain.  She is pulling up really good and cruising the furniture. She has even learned to push and walk with some of her push toys. No steps or standing alone just yet, but I'm not pushing it!

I took a few pictures of her this weekend since it was just the two of us.  I'm sure the neighbors were looking out their windows watching me make a complete fool of myself. After she ate grass, tried to choke on a rock, and pulled her bow out a million times, I finally got a FEW shots. Again, NOT like her sister. HA!  We just love this wild child to death, and we are constantly eating our wheaties!
