Our little girl is now 11 months old. We can't believe that we will be celebrating McKenzie's first birthday next month. She is getting so big and becoming such a "little girl". Her new love is stuffed animals, she loves to hug them and pat their backs. She can give high fives, crawl up stairs, and she has finally gotten over her battle with shoes. She still perfers bare feet, but will now wear her shoes without a melt down. Speaking of melt downs, McKenzie's daily dose of tantrums increases by the day. She gets in to full tantrum mode when she can't go some where she wants or something is taken away from her. She arches her back kicks her legs and cries at the top of her lungs...oh boy. She is going to be pumpkin for her first Halloween! Although she won't be trick-or-treating she has TWO parties to attend plus she will dress up for school. McKenzie's other new found love??? THE COUCH. She could climb on and off the couch all day and not get bored. She is also starting to show a slight interest in TV. I put on PBS sometimes and she seems to like Super Why and Peep.
McKenzie seems to be a picky eater lately. She doesn't eat much and the variety is slim. She has had some bites of meatball and ground beef, which she seemed to like. She is warming up to cheese quesadillas and mac n cheese. She LOVES veggie/fruit pouches and arrowroot cookies. She also likes Kix, blueberry whole grain waffles, yogurt, gerber breakfast bars...
Once McKenzie turns 1 and starts milk, we are going to try a new bedtime routine and sippy cup! She is completely off bottles at this point!
