Caroline 11 months

WOW time flies!  We can't believe our baby is almost ONE. Caroline is the light in all of our lives.  She is such a joy to be with and is ALWAYS smiling with her cute little dimple.  She started walking while we were in Disney so around December 1st.  She is now walking around 10-15 steps at a time and can bend down to retrieve something and stand back up without loosing her balance.  She is eating real food: avocados, grilled cheese, bananas, turkey, chicken, peas, carrots, sweet potatoes, apple sauce, yogurt, rice and beans, spaghetti chopped small, cheerios, scrambled eggs, pancakes without syrup, and biscuits. She loves to eat and is beginning to feed herself with a spoon.  The other day she picked up a several pieces of grilled cheese with her fingers put it on the spoon and fed it to herself. She loves to play peek a boo and crawl fast around the kitchen floor with Isabel chasing her.  She LOVES baby dolls and usually has at least one in her arms at all times.  She is sleeping wonderful from 7:00 pm to 7:00 am and takes 2 naps a day one in the morning and one in the afternoon.  She can say DADA, MAMA, UH-OH, and NONO. She adores music and moves her whole body as soon as she hears it....watch out Uncle BarBar (Dunbar) you may have met your match.  She is really into cabinets and drawers and usually pulls out every plastic container and cup in the cabinet throwing it behind her back.  Her latest tricks are waving bye bye, blowing kisses, and hiding with her hands on her eyes when you say "Where's Caroline?".

11 MONTH STATS:
Weight: 22 lbs 14 oz (90 %)
Height: 29 inches (75%)
Head circumference: 17.5 inches (50%)

Park hop/Very Merry Christmas Party Day 4

We started Day 4 with the Royal Breakfast (featured on previous post).  Then we asked Isabel what she wanted to do and she wanted to go back to Hollywood Studios to ride Tower of Terror and play in Honey I Shrunk the Kids.  We spent the day relaxing and walking around followed by a little rest before the Very Merry Christmas Party at Magic Kingdom.  The pictures below are from the snow on Main street, Christmas parade, and fireworks.  We also stayed that night at Magic Kingdom until midnight riding Splash Mountain and Thunder Mountain Railroad about 7 times for Splash and 3 times the rollar-coaster.....not kidding.  I hope your exhausted from all these pictures.  It was a wonderful trip and we had so much fun with Isabel....but it took about a week to catch up on our rest:)
