Hadley is 11 months

To describe Hadley this last month in one word it would be BUSY! She is so much like Matt and I it's scary. We are the family that likes to be at home but we are always doing something. She wants everything that she can't have and everything that she can have she doesn't want. She is not walking alone yet but is walking around furniture and holding on to walls. I think with the extra weight(36lbs to be exact) it's hard for her to keep her balance. She really likes pushing toys until she tips them over because she is so strong. I had to move the chair her high chair is on because she tips herself backwards by pushing off the table. She does this with restaurant high chairs also.I would like to use the tray but it won't fit because of her belly. The straps won't work either. We have to get a new swing because the straps on the swing won't go around her. Her car seat straps are as loose as they will go.

Her favorite thing this last month is playing patty cake. Her favorite part is the roll it and roll it (she gets this deep voice and says,"roll roll")It is so cute! She also is into itsy bitsy spider. She is finally eating real food better! I still can't get her to like fruits very well but she is good with vegetables. Potatoes are her favorite. She has six teeth now 4 on top and 2 on bottom and the other 2 on the bottom are getting close. She really does not like traveling! She does well the first hour but after that she is done, wants out of that darn seat!She loves being outside in the grass, on the concrete, or in the dirt. A lot of kids are so funny about the out doors but not her. The good news about her being so busy is that I am getting more exercise chasing her around. She is constantly giving Matt and I kisses and well, that just melts our hearts!WE LOVE OUR LITTLE GIRL!
