Kambri 11 months

Kambri is almost 1! It makes me sad to think that she has grown so much. I see new babies and I cannot even remember her being that small. It makes me want another baby!

Kambri has really only wanted me for the last month. She cried when her dad takes her out of the tub and holds her. As soon as she gets in my arms she is just fine and happy.

The last few days Kambri has started to climb on things a lot. Her new thing is to try to climb on the couch. It makes her mad when she cannot get up and she'll throw herself down and cry while pounding her legs on the floor.

Kambri is now a full on walker. She walks all over the house. I try to get her to crawl, but it's like she has forgot how to do that. It's fun to see her walking. She has also learned to pat the ground when she wants to dog to come to her. She loves to tease the dog. She takes his toy and waves it in front of him and then runs to me to hide. She thinks it's so funny to tease him.

Last Friday we got to see the fireworks at the SUU homecoming festivities. Kambri loved them! She would just look at them and smile. By the time they were over she was laying on her stomach on the grass looking up at the fireworks.

Kambri is trying to learn how to talk. We think she says something, but it's just jabber. We are trying to encourage her to talk, and we know it will happen one day.

Kambri will only eat if she feeds herself and that tends to get a little messy. We try to only feed her messy food at the end of the day when she can go straight to the tub. We have just recently learned that if you put food on her tray to distract her you can also spoon feed her.(Which is nice)

Laying around the house

Over the last week we have been doing a lot of laying around the house. Last Monday when I went to pick up Kambri from Natalie's she said she had a fever of 102. After I heard that I felt like the worst mom in the world to let her daughter out of the house sick.

Tuesday we took Kambri to the doctor. She cried for 15 minutes after the doctor looked in her ear and cried even harder when she would look at the doctor. She ended up with an ear infection and he said double pink eye, but I don't think she really had pink eye.

The next day Courtney ended up getting sick, so I had to take care of both my children. Friday I was sick, but I didn't think I was as sick as I was. Once Sunday came around and I rested I have never felt that sick before. I glad I am feeling better today. Yesterday I was a little dramatic and told Courtney I just wanted to stop breathing because it hurt to bad.

I hope the next few days are going to be a lot better than last week.

Kambri

 I have been really bad at posing about Kambri, so this post is dedicated to her. Kambri is almost 11 months old. I cannot believe how fast the time has gone and how much she has learned. A big milestone for Kambri has been that she has learned to walk. This video was taken a few days ago and now she will take off walking from where she is standing.

This last weekend Kambri's cousin Austin was here and Austin taught her how to stand up from a sitting position. While my mom and bother were here we took the kids to the splash pad in St. George and let the girls have fun in the water. The girls kept crawling on their hands and feet. It was the funniest thing. Kambri loves the water. I think she has the most fun when the water was shooting up.

 Kambri learns so much everyday. We have been trying to teach her where her eyes, ears, mouth and nose are. She knows where her nose is and will sometimes show us where her eyes are. We will have to keep working on her.  

Kambri has recently learned how to climb on things. She will climb on anything she can. I think her favorite thing is to climb on the back of our couch and look out the window. She really like to be outside. We don't go out much because I think the grass at our apartment complex is gross and I don't want to crawling around on it.

Kambri's hair is getting so long, so we decided we were going to put it in curlers. She looked so cute with them in, but we couldn't keep them in as long as we needed because we had to rush off to a parade. We'll have to try them again soon.

Kambri loves to watch Special Agent Oso. It has to been the dumbest children's show, but she really loves it. She doesn't sit and watch T.V, but she likes the music and will dance when music comes on. On Saturday when we are cleaning the house we listen to music and Kambri loves it. She really likes it when we dance with her.

Kambri was doing really well at eating her baby food, but lately she has not been eating lunch very well. She'll eat a few bites of the baby food and then start spitting it back at me. I don't know what to do. She really likes Grill Cheese, but I don't want to feed her that everyday for lunch. Any ideas on what i can feed an 11 month old for lunch?

Kambri does really well in the morning when she can eat a banana. She loves loves loves banana's!

We love our little girl so much and we are so glad she is in our lives. I cannot wait until I can be home with her all day and be a mom.
