Today you are 11 months old! You are just a ball of fun and love all rolled into one. This is a stage that I will miss once it's over. You are hilarious and still my sweet crybaby and you just want to be held by mommy. Now I understand why you didn't want to leave my womb! You are so happy as long as mommy is carrying you. Oh Camila...how I adore you. You are a month away from turning 1. I kn ow I will cry on this day. I will cry for so many reasons. I will cry because your daddy and I made it. We made it through our 1st year of having a newborn and a toddler. I will cry because I will no longer have a newborn....ever. I will cry because time flew by too fast. I will cry because you will be 1 year old and you are happy and healthy...a blessing I will forever be grateful for.
At 11 months, you:
- Gave up the pacifier on your own. You were done. That's it. No more. You wanted nothing to do with it shortly before you turned 10 months. 9 months was long enough for you.
- Have 6 teeth. You started off slowly but now you're not too far away from where your sister was at your age (she had 9 teeth). And boy do you like to use them. You love to eat...anything and everyone. As long as you see a hand coming near your mouth, you will open it wide. I love that. I hope you're a more adventurous eater than your big sister...but I won't hold my breath. I'm ok with two picky eaters. These days you love to eat eggs, waffles, pasta, Mom's albondigas, Mom's sopita, PB&J...pretty much anything you see your sister eating.
- Got your 1st cold. It was heartbreaking but thankfully, it was nothing more than a runny nose and a slight cough. You powered through it and seem to be just fine now.
- Are cruising and crawling like no one's business! I still have a bet with myself that you will walk sooner than your sister but we shall see. You love to stand and are starting to walk with your toy. You just to let go once and take those precious first steps and then boy, are we in trouble!
- Have a special bond with your sister. You light up and go crazy when Abbie enters the room. I don't blame you baby girl. You two will be a force to be reckoned with. My heart. My girls.
- Do not like riding in daddy's car. I don't know what it is but you always seem to cry your little heart out when you ride home in daddy's car. Poor daddy...he's already used to it. Don't worry, he loves you just the same. You just drive him crazy a little. Don't worry honey - all 3 of us do. He's still crazy about us. In my car? You are a perfect little angel. God Bless you sweetheart.
- Have lighter hair than your sister. Both beautiful but yours is definitely lighter. I'd pay for your color hair :)
- Are starting to look more like mommy these days. At least that's what I've been hearing from a few people...Mom included. Nothing makes me happier than to hear that my girls resemble their mommy. You should...I carried you both for 9 months!
- Bring everyone SO much happiness. You really do baby girl. You are crazy and fiesty and DARING and relentless and I couldn't love you more. Next month we celebrate your 1st birthday. Slow down time...slow down please. My heart can't take it. But at the same time, I thank you God. I thank God for my blessings. You, Abbie and Daddy fulfill my heart completely. My cup runneth over. I am one lucky mommy. Happy 11 months my little Cami. Mommy, daddy and sister love you so much.
