11 Months Old

Our little Rug Rat is 11 months old...I say rug rat in the cutest way possible as our little Elle Belle is such a precious little monkey who melts hearts everywhere we go but at the same time this age brings so many new things to the table. Elle is now into EVERYTHING! She is constantly making messes and it seems like I cant keep the girl clean. She is the cutest messiest little munchkin ever and we just love it! Her personality is sooo adorable and she is so loving and friendly with EVERYONE...all it takes is eye contact and Elle is anyones instant buddy! I love how outgoing and personable she is....as Sean says, "Our little girl is gonna make waves in this world." And I think he is definitely right. She is so strong and determined and at such a young age understands so much and is learning so quickly. We have a little smarty pants on our hands!

Things Elle Knows: She looks at fire (i.e. burning candles or the stove when I'm cooking) and says "Hot", She loves Birds..and looks in the sky if you ask her where the birdies are and says "ba" and points, She touches cold (i.e. ice or a cold drink) and says "burr", She sees or hears puppies and says "woo, woo" like their bark, She loves dads hats...takes them off his head and puts them on her and then gives us the biggest tooth filled grin and says "hat", We have gotten her to say Hello on the phone...which she LOVES our cell phones but it sounds more like "herrow", While we drive, she sits in the back seat and says Mom, Mom, Mom, Mom...like 100 times like she is going to ask me a question or something.It is so cute! She loves to brush her teeth...we say "brusha, brusha, brusha" and she shows her pearly whites and brushes away.... I could go on and on...she is so smart and is mimicking everything we do and say...its nuts. Next Sean and I are gonna be spelling things to each other so she doesn't know what we are talking about!
LOL ...we already do when it comes to talking about Baba's! :)

We now enter a whole new stage...the life of having a toddler...:) sooo much fun...we look forward to every milestone!

I could take pictures of her ALL day! She is so freakin cute.. I never knew that this kind of love was possible.....she is an unbelievable blessing!
