Burkleigh Ann is 11 months old...

You would not cooperate for your monthly pictures.. this is the best we could get.  The first one was the best but my camera wasn't in focus.. =(

I'm guessing you weigh about 19 1/2-20 lbs.  You're ready to move up to your big girl car seat but we haven't gotten it just yet.  I'll probably do that this week.
Not a happy baby...
You're not a big fan of your hair bows. They usually don't stay in very long.. you like to pull them out and chew on them.

You wear a size 3 diaper.
Clothes are anywhere from 6-12 months.  You can really wear whatever.. 
Some of your 3 months clothes still fit...
Not sure about your shoe size... probably around a 2. 
I've tried some little shoes on you and you don't really like them.  You kick your feet and try to get them off.
You can tell we don't really wear shoes.  
You have 4 teeth.. 2 on the top and 2 on bottom
You're working on the 2 top ones right next to the middle ones. 
Teething is very rough for you.. you are a little fussy pants.
 You are standing alone now and can walk around with your little push toy walker.
You are a little fast thing. 
You love to read your books and Goodnight Moon has become a favorite for bedtime.
You also love the touch and feel books and the ones with the pull down flaps. You are good at opening those.
We finished our 12 week kindermusik classes and you loved that.  In June, we will start a 6 week summer music class and we have started a gymboree play and learn class too that we go to on Fridays.
You will start mothers day out  two days a week after your 1st b'day in June.
You love to wave.. and you wave anytime I say "hey" or "bye bye"
You love to go places and the zoo is a favorite!
You love to laugh..especially when I play peek a boo with you.
You have dropped one nap and are now only down to one a day.  =(
We usually get out and go in the morning and are back for your nap around 12-1.  You sleep for about 2-3 hours.  Your bedtime is around 8ish.  You are going through a very clingy phase and you are waking up a lot at nightime too.  You usually start off in your bed and end up in ours so mommy can get some sleep too. Hopefully you'll be back to your ways when your teeth come in.  
We can't go anywhere without your bunny lovie.  You love that thing and you have to sleep with her.  So sweet!  You still suck your thumb when you are tired.
You love your stuffed animals and you have a love/hate relationship with Elmo. You like him but he scares you too ... as long as someone is holding you, you are okay.  It's too funny.
You cry when I have the hairdryer on and the vaccumm cleaner.  
You are not a big eater but you are loving grapes, blueberries, strawberries, oranges, grilled cheese, peas, yogurt, mac and cheese, Happy Baby cheese puff snacks, goldfish, yogurt bites and whatever we are eating.
You are down to about 3-4 bottles a day.
One in am, afternoon and night..usually 4-6 oz. 
This is our last month for formula! Woo hoo! 
I'm praying the transition will be smooth.. you really love to drink water.. thats your favorite.
You LOVE to be outside.. as long as we are outside you are content.  We just call you our outside baby!

Less than 4 weeks till your 1st birthday.. we can't wait to celebrate your first little year!
We love you so much baby girl!
