11 months old!

This is the hardest post yet. Not because it was particularly hard to write, but because as I started to write it, I can't help but think "Eva will be 1 in less than a month". My baby, my little girl, my Eva Marie will be 1. 12 months. Yikes - where has all this time gone?

Weight - a little over 18 pounds according to the scientific method of stepping on the scale with and without Eva. This seems a little excessive as she only weighed ~16 pounds last month and a 2 pound gain in 1 month doesn't seem right! Oh well, I'll find out for sure soon.
Clothes - not a whole lot of change here. 6 month short sleeve onesies are still in the rotation as layering pieces. The majority of our wardrobe is 9 month with a few 12 month pieces.
Diapers - has my daughter grown? We're still on the smallest rise setting with only 1 set of snaps showing for our cloth diapers.
Sleep - No change here! Miss Eva adapted to a schedule so nicely. Nap from 12:30 to 3:30. Another nap from 6:30 to Mommy's bedtime.

Eating - this girl will eat anything! She loves yogurt melts, her purees (she gets really excited when she's in her high chair and I'm at the microwave) and table food! We're still nursing 6x a day, but we'll be cutting down to 5 really soon. We're starting sippy cups of soy milk!
Likes - the girl still loves peekaboo. She'll even play it with her dolls. Eva loves crawling over to the entertainment center and pulling down the DVD's as fast as she can. She also likes to pull books off the shelves at the library :P
Dislikes - sitting still, having her non-toys taken away, having things in her hair (I say boo to this one!)

New tricks - talking (she says dada, mama and hi), waves hello and goodbye, high fives. She pulls herself up on EVERYTHING, crawls up a few stairs and if she's in the right mood, she'll stand independently. Miss Eva still refuses to walk.

I can't wait to see what the upcoming month brings!


Here are a few pictures of the past month in no particular order...
