Casey had a fever today

Started her morning like this. She fell asleep on me! This hadn't happened in years!!
Perked up a bit for some fun in the sun. 

Snow angel


But really she was on the couch most of the day.

Sarah is 11 months old!


Sarah turned 11 months a few days ago.  At 11 months, Sarah:

Can:
-wave bye-bye and kind of say bye-bye
-wave high
-sign "more" and "all done" and "drink"
-blow kisses
-crawl really fast, pull herself up to stand, stand holding on with only one hand

Likes:
-peek-a-boo
-taking lego pieces apart
-playing with whatever Casey has (I suspect this will get worse!)
-throwing her food over the side of the high chair (which mommy dislikes)
-dance when she hears music
-LOVES music class and whenever someone sings, especially Old MacDonald
-loves her bath, especially laying on her back when we rinse her hair, and she crawls around, tries to stand up.
-throw or drop toys and paper over the edge of the step, lie down at the edge, pick it up, sit up, and do it all over again.
-turning pages of books.

Dislikes:
-waiting for her food.  She gets hungry and needs to eat!
-having her nose wiped or suctioned
-beginning to hate diaper changes

And an outtake 

At the children's museum

Could not get them to look at the same time

Let me out!

Casey's first dentist appointment

She was such a rockstar!!

Casey on her tricycle

All by herself

And cleaning the playground yesterday 

And shoveling today 
And we have maybe two more feet of snow expected!! (See how she almost cleared off the bottom step w her tiny shovel? No? Yeah she doesn't help that much, just wants to fill up her pail and make snow castles when she dumps it out)

Sarah shaking her head

Her favorite thing to do lately 
And she likes to squint her eyes and smile. Funny face that I adore

And she signs for more

Sarah first words (bye-bye) AND she can turn pages

Sarah can say bye-bye and wave, I tried to catch it on video. She can also turn pages. She understands so much and can do more and more each day. what a sweetness. [still no teeth!]

Stuffed peppers

My children loved them!
Sarah ate an entire pepper plus some of the stuffing!

Sarah loving oatmeal for lunch


Another snow day

Snow was beautiful but not great for making a snowman. But great for shoveling!
