11+ month update


Boy how the time has flown by. It's hard to believe that Josie is 11 months old already. She is close to walking but still holding on to things. She is parroting tones but no words yet. She is pretty good at pointing and waving her finger and saying something close to NO after I tell her no to something. Peek-a-boo is a favorite game lately. She is waving hello and good-bye. There are lots of hugs and what passes for kisses - open mouth on your face. Sleeping is getting better but she still has her moments. She is eating a lot of "grown up" food and does something along the lines of licking her lips when we are getting her food ready. She seems petite for her age and is still wearing clothes ranging from 3-9 months. She loves music and "sings" along when she hears it and dances - sways her hips back and forth. She loves the Leap Frog music table from Mr. and Mrs. Kenny. Here are a few photos of her and what she is doing to keep herself busy.





Sharing Ernie's water bowl.













Investigating the dog food.












Ready for a walk on a sunny day.













Eating a pear she grabbed out of the fruit bowl. I think they should use this for the Pear Fair poster. :)















Treat for Ernie

Josie watches intently as we give Ernie treats so I thought I would let her give it a try. Ernie was about ready to pounce on her but he kept his control.
First I pick up the treat...
Next, I hold out the treat for him...
Lastly, he takes the treat-gently please.

Like Father, Like Daughter


A few Sundays ago I came in from doing yard work and Jay and Josie were napping together. Just another similarity between the two of them.
