Chloe and Will: 11 Months

Just a few days late. We're in Christmas mode over here!

Weight and height:  Heavy and tall.  I found a newborn diaper in my work bag because I was going to use it for an object schedule for a student last year. I couldn't get over how tiny it was. It amazes me to think that a newborn diaper was too BIG for Will. This past year has just flown by.

Sleeping patterns:  Long daytime naps at home and sometimes at daycare. Will has started to sleep through the night a few times. The number of times he has done that probably equal the number of times that Chloe wakes up during the night. Baby girl likes her sleep like her mama.

Eating habits:  Chloe loves stuffing. Will loves yogurt. And they both love beans, Cheerios, puffs, and yogurt bites.

Angry because her spaghetti was gone


New discoveries they've made:  Throwing and dropping things is so fun! They've both thrown the changing pad off their dresser while in their cribs. And the space under their highchairs is covered in Cheerios.

Accomplishments: They both will stand on their own for a few moments and they love to walk around the house pushing things. Chloe has taken a few steps on her own before face planting. I can't believe they are so close to walking already!

Places they went:  Thanksgiving in Omaha then at my parents' house.

Special friends they've made:  Santa! They know him! We visited Santa at the zoo. Chloe was like, who the hell is this person holding me and started crying. Dom was such a great big brother and tried to console her. Will was so tired that he was just out of it.


Will loves Marbles. He gets so excited when she is near and he likes to grab big fistfuls of hair and cat fat and then pulls her toward him. She keeps coming back for more so she must like it. Strange cat, but I'm glad she's so good with the kids.

Noises and babbles:  They both babble quite a bit and say "Mama" and "Dada" (though they say Mama more!). I think they've both said ba for ball and mi for milk. Chloe has this fake cry that she uses to protest or if someone gets in her way. Will angry cries if you take something away from him. But he laughs at everything so that makes up for his angry cries. I love listening to them talk to each other. It's so adorable.

Firsts:
Thanksgiving
Their first Thanksgiving was more fun than Dom's because they ate a little of everything (Dom wasn't a fan of the food on his first). Chloe is obsessed with stuffing. She usually eats so daintily, picking things up with just her forefinger and thumb, but she was grabbing handfuls of stuffing and shoving them into her mouth.


Tooth
Will has two teeth that are poking through! One is about half way in. Baby teeth are so cute! 
 
Other adventures:
Their favorite place to play
Playing in water at daycare. They sent a video of Will - he loved it!

They said she looked like she was sleeping and when they came over to take a pic of her she just popped right up.

Do you know where the weight room is?




Merry Christmas!
