One more month to go!!!!!

At 11 months Jessica :

is Finally getting hair! And its coming in white blond. Think we may have a toe-head (sp?) here!

Loves to clap, for everything

Loves to have books read to her, and to "read" them herself

Pretends to talk on the phone

Brushes her hair (but refuses to let us brush her teeth!)

Does baby signs: All done, more, milk, and SO BIG. We're working on Please, and holding up one finger when we ask her how old she is......

Says a few words: Purple, 'nana (for banana, her favorite breakfast food), Cracker for Nut crackers, uh-oh, dada. We've also heard : mama, apple, water, brush. So fun!

Has ridiculously hysterical facial expressions

2 1/2 teeth. The bottom two, and one half way in on the top.

Smiles at the camera

Wears 12-18 month clothing, sometimes even bigger.......

Weighs about 21 pounds

Starting to not want to eat her veggies (good thing i got that cook book for xmas!)

Loves fruit (especially oranges, which we just introduced, and berries) cheese, pasta, and crackers. goldfish are her fave. can you tell who her mama is?

Her favorite song is "5 little monkeys swinging in the tree"

Can stand on her own, but doesn't realize when she's doing it

May be growing out of her morning nap? But still takes two naps a day, for about an hour each. Sometimes only twenty minutes

LOVES all her friends! She missed them over the holidays

Her mommy and daddy are so excited with the little girl she is becoming. SHe makes them laugh everyday and they love every second and every part :)

Yay! I can't believe that her bday is almost here. Time seriously does fly by when you have a baby. I'm definelty going to appreciate that more the second time around.
Now that jessica realizes that tehre's a giant stuffed dog sitting next to her, its getting harder to take her picture. That was the best one of her smiling at the camera, and it looks like she hass a full diaper! (she didnt'). Here area few outtakes:






love this one- karate chopping ruffy!

Don't you love the ponytail? She has so much hair now, i just have to keep it out of her eyes ;) I love when she does so big for me in the pictures. Yeah, her arms used to reach over her head to do it, now they end up on her head looking like she's saying "are you serious!" funny

Can't wait to scrapbook this picture. so funny!

Now a few pictures from our trip to the SD wild animal park. Jessica seriously loved it. Here she is trippin out over the elephants. She totally leaned forward to watch them, too funny!

She loved the gorillas. Her current favorite song is the monkey song, so that works. love this picture

She such a ham, its ridiculous........

You can tell we're having fun ;)

Just a sweet picture with her grandpa. i love her little smile here. i wish the picture wasn't blurry......

I have more pictures to post, but having some computer probs. i just got my new one all set up, and its using windows vista, and i can't figure out how to save my pictures cause its all different. steve will be home soon to help me out.........

till next time, have a fabulous week!!!!
