Adaline is 11 months old! Normally, when it's a week before Adaline becomes another month older, I find myself thinking that she just turned last month's age. For the first time ever, all month I've been thinking Adaline was already 11 months old. Weird. She's becoming less and less of a baby every day. Adaline loves to: Pick up her sippy cup and get her own drinks out of it. She LOVES water-that's all I've ever put in it. Fake cry when she doesn't get something that she wants Walk more than she crawls (she's finally figured out that it's more efficient). Adaline is officially a walker.

She just recently learned to make kissy sounds, but she hasn't yet figured out that she's supposed to kiss our cheeks, not the air. It's pretty cute. In the video, she just does a couple, but normally she'll just go on and on and on. I guess the big news is that Adaline took her first independent steps a couple weeks ago. She only does a couple steps at a time, but she's starting to do it more and more. It's still so weird to see her walk. She also LOVES reading books now and will actually sit still in my lap long enough for me to read 5 or so books at a time. It's kind of weird since she normally can't sit still for more than 2 s...
