Lily at 11 months old

Sweet Lily, this last month you finally started saying "mamama" which was one of the highlights for me :). People are always commenting on your beautiful blue eyes, your adorable smile and your curly hair. We still get offers to adopt you if we don't want you anymore...like anyone could ever take you away from us!
Baby blue eyes
This past month, I cut you down to 2 nursings, in the morning and right before bed. It was a tough transition for you, but you still love to eat mush...we added peaches and apples to your repertoire.You even got to try ice cream on May 30th and loved it; you begged for more.
"I'll eat you up I love you so"

Duke is still one of your favorite play-mates...

You spent much of last month teething, having acquired 2 more teeth (7 teeth in all)! Your top left came in on 5/27, your top right on 6/12.

Whenever you hear music, you can't help dancing. You get a very serious expression on your face as you sway or bob to the music.

On May 27th, you started standing up without holding on to anything. You love to stand in place all the time. You also love to help with the laundry :)
At the beginning of June, we flew to Boston...your first plane ride. Many fellow passengers commented on how good you were on the plane. You were amazing on the trip, being so patient despite being stuck in a car seat or stroller most of the time.
You loved the beach!
After we got home we finally went swimming, but you had an allergic reaction to the sunscreen. Your face was red and blotchy, and it was the saddest sight ever!
You took your first step at the library on June 11th, and later that day you pointed to my nose when I asked you to. You are such a smart baby!

The next day you said uh-oh which has become a popular word every time you throw something off your high chair tray. You are a little bundle of curiosity, constantly trying to outsmart child locks, and reach the keyboard on the desk. We are always re-baby-proofing and you grow taller and become more adept at getting into things. But, life with you is joy. You bring so much happiness and laughter to our home and we can't imaging life without you, sweet princess!
