11 months old


Where does the time go? Natalie has become quite good at pulling up on anything and everything. She is often like a little leech (a cute leech, of course).....you will suddenly feel her attached to your leg. For about a week or two she would fuss if she got "stuck" (like holding onto the edge of the fireplace or bathtub) and want you to come help her get down. Now she has figured out how to do that for herself! It is so neat to watch her figure things out.

She says "Hey" all the time now to people at the store or when we go for walks. She also has somehow associated a "f" sound with dogs (well, almost any animal it seems) and will make that sound when she sees or hears a dog in real life or in a book. We think it is b/c of my Mom's dog's name.



She can sign "food" and "milk" and "more". She is so proud of herself when she does it too! She has a really good appetite and will eat just about anything we give her and will continue to want more. She especially loves fruit. She has been gaining weight really consistently and is over 18 1/2 lbs. now.

We've been staying busy with going to lots of birthday party playgroups each week and also BabyGym. She also loves to go out for wagon rides around our neighborhood. She is definitely a people watcher and is quite observant!
