11 months!

Once again, I'm tardy at posting. You'll see why in these pictures!

Emily turned 11 months old last week. Stop. Time. Now. PLEASE!!  I spend most of the day picking up after hurricane Emily since she is into everything. She's walking while pushing her little walker toy, the rocking chair, step stool, basically anything thats not too heavy for her. She's into every cabinet or drawer that she can open and is quite good at emptying them. 

She found her way into the guest room one day and I didn't know it until I heard the piano that she and her daddy sometimes play!  The door is now shut to that room!

I thought this was such a sweet picture. She loves to have a snack and basically begs everytime i'm in the kitchen. She eats ALL the time!

We had our first boo boo with blood at Blaine's parents house (she hit her lip on the end table) then while we were in Henderson at my mom's office earlier this month she got her first big shiner. You may not be able to see it but it bruised up pretty good. She lost her balance while holding on to a table and just bumped her head. She does that a lot but seems to recover quickly. This was the first to leave a mark!

And alas, the Wolfpack's dream of wining a national championship were shot in the first round of the NCAA tournament. But that'll never stop us for cheering for them!  Emily wore something Wolfpack for the first two games of the ACC tournament but not for the Miami game. With 40 seconds to go in the game I put her NC State diaper cover on her but it didn't help. Hey, its only weird if it doesn't work, right?!?  She also wasn't wearing anything NC State until the last minute of the NCAA tournament game, but hey, don't blame the baby!

One of her most favorite things to do is pull out all of the bibs that I keep behind her highchair. She also loves to play hide and seek with us after dinner around the chair. It's the perfect height for her to stand and walk around.

And this is our normal morning routine...Emily destroying the bathroom by taking everything out of the cabinet under the sink...just watch how it progresses!

We have actually had some spring like weather in the past month so Emily and I have been able to get outside and play a little. She really likes pulling the grass and handing it to me. But not before sampling some herself :)

Our big eater got to try spaghetti the other night and LOVED it. She loves everything though. Seriously she eats everything and hasn't turned anything down. She'll eat just as much as me sometimes I think. We just give her a little of whatever we're having usually and it's so very simple. We're very grateful that she's not a picky eater and has really taken to food.

We've been traveling a lot for CAbi show's and while we've been away the ever handy Blaine has been tackling some remodeling/redecorating at our house!  I'll post some pictures of that soon too, it's really coming along great! Big thank you to Terry and Nancy for helping out too!

Well, we have the worlds shortest napper (meaning she doesn't take long naps!) so I've got to go get the sleeping beauty.
