Whoa…..egh…eh..eh LOOK SHES WALKING 11 Months….

Clover’s 11 month of life started off with a wobble and a bob and then that ceremonial first step followed by another than another until before we knew it she was running around! It is amazing to watch the transition from infant to toddler. She is becoming more of a little girl everyday!



This month we spent a lot of time at the park since Clover is now walking it’s much more enjoyable for all of us! That and, there have been a few cooler evenings here that we have been able to enjoy. Now when I say cooler in Florida during September I mean mid 80’s at 7:30 in the evening with 70% humidity! Haha!



We also went to the beach with our good friends and Clover had a great time playing in the sand and water. She still puts everything in her mouth so that keeps me busy especially at the beach!





We also went to Clover’s first party! It was a dress up party for her friend Desiree and she had a wonderful time getting to play with all the kids!

Month 10 Flying high……

This past month Clover and I had a big adventure we flew to Arkansas to visit my sister. It was a wonderful trip. Our first flight out of Fort Myers was a little ruff because Clover was cranky from waiting for our plane and not getting a nap. She screamed and was generally grumpy and finally fell asleep when we landed in Atlanta. Our second flight was much smoother; she slept most of the plane ride! During our 4 days in Arkansas we did a lot of shopping which Clover enjoyed! We also swam and went to many restaurants. I even got pampered on the trip got a new hair cut and my nails done! Clover was a joy and seemed to have a good time in the new environment. My sister and her son loved having Clover around. The flights home were wonderful both ways we had empty seats next to us. Carl missed us greatly and was eager to see us when we got off the plane. He insists that Clover got a tan while she was gone! Haha!






Other than our great adventure Clover and I have spend most of this month at home due to are multitude of car problems. Clover is now eating 3 REAL meals a day and loves her green beans; they seem to be her favorite food. She is also really picking up the sign language, saying hungry, more, and all done. We are continuing to increase her vocabulary but those seem to be the ones she understands. She went to the doctor this month for a check-up and weighs 16 pounds and 15 ounces. This is even after a horrible bout with a stomach flu. She is now pointing at things and is taking more of an interest in her toys and environment. She still is not fully walking just short trips from object to object. She got two more teeth this month giving her a total of 6! I love watching her change and become more of a person.
