11 months (almost a month late)

Macy enjoyed herself some lasagna...as you can probably tell. She shoveled and shoveled to her hearts content.

Macy has mastered the stair at the camera look.

So sad that the one picture of her smiling is cut off...that's what I get when I am trying desperately to get her to smile and not paying attention to looking in the camera.

Macy has turned into such a little lover. She gives me hugs and kisses (honis) frequently. Lately she has been understanding so much. I love that she can understand what I am saying and somewhat communicate with me.

Macy can say a few words really well, and she attempts many others. Yesterday, we put up the Christmas tree and she called it the sasa de. It was pretty close. Her best words all start with the letter D, and if they don't originally start with D, she adds one.

Macy is a paper eater...any paper she can get her hands on goes in her mouth. I hear that her father also loved him some paper and even ate a whole newspaper once.

Macy is a great eater of solid foods, she will eat ANYTHING! The problem is that she eats more solids than she drinks milk, so I am trying to force a bottle down her along with nursing. She is just so skinny...she needs some fat on those bones.

Macy does not like to sit still. She is a mover and a shaker. The only time she sits still is when she is in a big group of people she doesn't know, or there is a ton of commotion to keep her occupied and entertained.

Macy is so close to being 1 year old. I cannot believe how quickly time has gone. Macy feels like a giant to me now, and I wonder where my baby has gone. I am enjoying seeing her learn and grow and develop. Being a mom is seriously the best job ever!
