11 months & Halloween

Dru is rounding the corner to her first birthday. She is also getting fairly close to walking. She can pull herself up on anything and surf along furniture, walls and people.

Daycare is wearing her out. Naps are dwindling to about 1/2 hour a day so when she gets home it is bedtime. One year brings many subtle milestones that will make her more of a toddler. She'll be able to start drinking whole milk and we'll turn her car seat around to face forward. They may sound insignificant but they will be small reminders that she isn't an infant anymore.

She is sick right now with a viral sinus infection. She isn't her bubbly self. The doc says it should be just a few more days and she'll be back to normal. We cancelled her first year pictures that were scheduled for today to next week. Her first birthday party will be on her actual birthday with our family coming over for dinner and cake. I can only imagine I will cry :)

Halloween marked her last "first" holiday. We went to my parents for homemade soup. Before it got dark we took a few pics of our pumpkin.
