Jennie is 11 months old

And so that means that she turned 10 months old without a mention. Poor 4th child. I do remember that on the exact day she turned 10 months old, she stood confidently for at least 10 seconds before gracefully lowering herself to the ground. I also remember that two weeks later, she hit 3 noteworthy milestones on the same day. 1) Jennie signed her first sign, (more, and it actually is more of a clap than the fingers together motion, but she for SURE wanted more of Doug's ice cream, no mistakin'). 2) She took her first step, (two times that day, and many times since, but she has only managed 1 or 2 steps before she lowers to the comfortable crawl). and 3) Jennie officially threw her first major temper tantrum over an unshared water bottle, (I don't like kid backwash). She is our earliest talker by far, she says and knows the meaning of Mama, Dada, baby, ut-oh, bot, (bottle), apple, (really applesauce, but I think it counts), Dalton, out, mo-mo-mo (what she says as she signs more), Addie, and Owen, (our friends).

She sure is growing fast... She is so cute though. Hey are we ever going to get together again? I guess I just need to call you. I know life gets busy.

She is so cute Sherrie, She has reached so many milestones so quickly, i can't believe it. Taryn sits and sits and wait thats it. Oh well, she is still very much a baby. No toddling for her yet.

Don't feel too guilty. I've never kept track of how many months old my only child is.
