Lucia at 11 Months

Dear Lucia,

Happy 11 months baby girl!

The speed at which you get around these days seems to mirror the quickness with which the days pass, and I can't believe you are nearly one year old.  This month you focused much energy on pulling yourself up on everything in sight, as well as balancing in a standing position for a few happy moments.  Your eyes light up whenever you accomplish this new feat, and we can't get enough of seeing your sweet face so full of joy.

You love to eat, and this month your favorite food has been popsicles. Your brother loves to make these frozen delights and loves even more to share them with you (this one was a blueberry, cantaloupe, spinach and Greek yogurt pop). You are rather independent, and lately you have insisted on feeding yourself everything so we have shifted your meals to nothing but tasty finger foods.  
You also tried your first sips of coconut water straight from the source at a farmer's market and loved it.  

We spent some lovely days at the beach this month where you happily explored all of the wonders of this sandy playground.
With the rising temperatures (most within the 10 degree window of comfort that is San Diego), we spent more days enjoying the pool.You loved splashing about just as much as practicing your new skill of standing up.

You continue to develop new sounds and ways of communicating (many apparently can only be created at the highest of decibels), and I love how such a small being can be so mighty.  Thanks for another wonderful month.  We love you!
