11 months

 Savanna is 11 months old today!  That means that in one short month I will have a one-year-old.  Crazy!!  We cannot imagine life without our blue eyed little girl.  She definitely brings all of us a lot of smiles and laughs.

*Savanna is super social.  She has yet to meet someone she doesn't like.  She can be tired and cranky and then someone will come over and all of sudden she is all smiles and giggles.
*Absolutely loves giggling and talking to other babies and kids.
*Constantly clasps her little hands.  So, so precious.
*Gets a huge grin and starts clapping when you say, "Yay!"
 *Has perfected the crawl but usually only crawls half way across the room and then sits up and scoots.
*Walking along all the furniture, all the time, all day long.
*Loves to be in tunnels. For example, she is constantly trying to crawl through out legs and loves to be under the table.
*Fussiest time is any time she sees anyone eating.  She has to have a taste and can't stand to be left out!
*Quite independent.  She would rather play on her own, but she likes to have people in the room with her.
*Sporting 2 bottom teeth and she likes to hear them click on things, especially the dishwasher.
*She gets so excited when she sees her daddy, but generally prefers to be held by mom.
*Whenever she sees daddy she starts kicking her legs and pulling at her shirt.  We think she is trying to show him what she's wearing?
*Still pointing at everything and it has yet to get old.
*Starting to understand a lot more of what we are saying.
*When we go get her from her crib she is SO excited.  She starts giggling and throwing her head clear back.
*Loves to look at you by tipping her head back.
*Still loves to play with her toes
*Babbles a lot but I am not convinced she knows what she is saying.  Mostly says, "mamamam, dada, and bababa".
*Starts laughing and pointing when she sees animals.
*Laughs like crazy when she looks at a stuffed animal's face.
*Loves to tease all of us by pulling at our nose or hair.  She just can't get enough of that game.
*Likes to do a deep growl--it is so funny.
*Gives big, huge kisses and laughs while she is doing it.

We love watching our big 11 month old learn and grow!
Thank you, Savanna, for being such a happy, fun little girl.
We are oh so very lucky you are in our family!
