11 Months and First 4th of July

Elizabeth's 11 month birthday was also the same day as her first 4th of July!!!!  We had plans to meet friends at Liberty State Park for a festival, but we headed out and the rain started coming down, so we turned around and spent the day inside.  I continued on with my annual tradition of watching the hot dog eating contest in Coney Island on tv (I'm classy like that).  The fireworks were at Liberty State Park this year, which meant all we had to do was step foot outside the back door of our building.  Since Elizabeth was asleep, David volunteered to stay inside, so I headed outside solo.

 Elizabeth got her 4th of July outfit when she went shopping with her nanny and granddad.

Here are some 11 month highlights:
~Elizabeth officially took her first step!!  She is still wobbly, but is starting to walk more and more.
~She is still lacking in the hair department but excelling in the teeth department with 8 teeth.
~While Elizabeth is eating more, she still prefers carbs, give the girl bread or a cracker and it's like she hasn't eaten in months! - oh and loves her cookies and teddy grahams
~Still LOVING the water and bath time!!
~Elizabeth is talking all the time, when we take walks she goes on and on and on and on......
~She is waving hello and goodbye and can actually say "hi" and "byebye" (goodbye)
~NEVER STOPS!!  Unless she is sleeping, our girl is on the move all.the.time.
~David can make Elizabeth giggle like no one else can
~Still taking two naps a day (in fact, we are at the 3 hour mark right now for an afternoon nap, which is why I can get this typed;))
Generally, Elizabeth is super easy going.  She goes with the flow and is usually up for anything.
