Evelyn - 11 months

Gah!  11 months.  Oh Evelyn.....you have had my number.  You are a momma's girl.  Take today by instance...I left for 3 hours. I came back...you had been fine the entire time.  A lot of crying ensued.....until I nursed you.  You needed your mommy.  You wanted to reconnect....though you had been having a lot of fun with daddy too.  Example #2.....I've been waking to feed you at midnight and three AM for MONTHS.  MONTHS.  Everything I read said that this isn't necessary any more.  You are a big girl...and can make it all night without nursing.

Day one of letting you cry at the 3AM feeding...it was two hours  Day two...2 minutes.  Day 3 and 4...sleeping through the night.  You've been playing me the whole time.....

You are walking! Officially walking! Can you even believe it. You are SO proud of yourself too you stinker! Right after your birthday...you decided that crawling was overrated.  You are so busy!

Taking one nap around 1PM until 3/4PM.  You still take morning naps sometimes...but not as often anymore.  You are an amazing night sleeper though - I blame it on your movement.

You also love Grace.  Love. And she is so good with you.  She often tells us how you guys are going to be best friends. And you will. However...you are so different. You love being outside.  And Grace loves crafts.  

Finally...you love these little dolls. So much that they come everywhere with us. Even when you are nursing...one is being held!
