Growing "Up"

It is so hard to believe that in exacly one month, we will be celebrating Kaelyn's 1st birthday! At 11 months, Kaelyn is pulling up on everything and pushing her baby stroller as if she is running behind it. She finally said her first word, "up" (other than "da-da") but will only say it when she feels like it. When daddy is gone to work, I find Kaelyn looking for him and saying "da-da." She loves to play ball with daddy and swim with mommy. She is absolutely fascinated with Bama, our golden retriever. We can't get over how much she smiles when she's doing what she wants to be doing, and how she is starting to throw temper tantrums when she's tired or we tell her "no." She eats just about everything we put in front of her (she'll try anything at least once), but loves bananas, grapes, chicken spaghetti, water from her sippy cup, goldfish, and blueberries. Sometimes when mom isn't looking, she even gets a sweet treat from daddy. She is forming attachments to her toys, but we don't quite understand how she makes her selections. What an amazing 11 months we've had as a family!
