Bella at 11 months


For all of you who get motion sickness...Caution while watching :)!

Bella at her lookout post! She loves this slide and so does mom!

One of her many adventures in the Dryer.

Bella and her friend Lilly at the park.

So Bella is finally taking some steps and is getting a little better at not looking like she is trying to walk the white line after having too much to drink :)! I am really looking forward to her walking! I know all of you mothers are saying "Oh you have no idea what you are asking for", but it would be so nice to get her off the ground. She is now throwing tantrums, which I think is sometimes hysterical! She will bounce up and down and then throw herself back onto the ground and proceed to cry out loud. I didn't think that they started this young, but hopefully it is not a sign as to what I am in for as she grows older.

Rick has been working super hard these last few weeks with all of his dental requirements and I think he is ready for this year to be over. I can't believe that we have already been out here for almost three years and only have one year left. Time is flying by so fast and Bella will be turning one next month. I am still working away and am glad that I have the opportunity to be at home with Bella. We are excited for Easter and can't wait for our annual picnic.

We went to Bella's GI Specialist and we are going to be able to start her on some soy foods. If any of you know any foods that contain soy for toddler's I would so much appreciate it. We get to try her on a next step soy formula at 13 months and am so looking forward to not having to buy the pure gold formula "Neocate". So everyone keep your fingers crossed that she can handle the soy. I hope that all of you are doing well!

Bella cracks me up! She is so cute. I think you'll enjoy her walking...then you don't have to fight her when you somewhere and she wants to get down, becuase lets face it, that is one fight you are not going to win, she is a tough little girl! You'll just have to chase her around all the time!

She is walking so good! That video is so fun to watch! I miss my kids being that little, it's such a fun age. But it will definitely be nice to have her walking. It's nice to be out somewhere with disgusting floors and she doesn't have to get down on "all fours" to get around!

Good for her walking! I think it is better when they start walking- I was so glad Lucy could get where she wanted and I could set her down at the store, at the car, etc w/o her going right to the ground. Yeah, Bella! Let me know when you're up for another walk- I was bummed it was raining Tues...

Its the best when they start walking. So what's up with the soy stuff? Ella is throwing tantrum too, but she just has this high pitch scream, which is actually quite embarassing!

Oh my gosh..Bella is soo cute! I LOVE that video. I was seriously laughing out loud. And I LOVE the dryer shot! She's definitely an adventurous little girl. :) I am so excited for you that she is trying to walk already. I was so happy when Kenzie finally reached that milestone!
