Cute Little Fishie

Korie and I are taking a swim class this summer, and so far we love it!  Korie loves being in the pool, and I hope it will teach her both to like the water and how to be safe in the water.  We have had four classes, and the first time Korie went under the water, she didn't close her mouth and she choked/cough and cried. Last week, she went under 4 times and didn't choke or cry once!  Our little fishie is loving it!  Here she is having a snack before swim class.

Here are some pictures of Korie from the end of April.  She is such a busy, happy little girl!  Hard to believe she will be a year old in a couple of weeks!!!

11 Months Old!

Can you believe this sweet little baby is 11 months old?!  It's amazing to think she will be a year old in less than a month.  It's going by so fast!  Korie is quite the busy little girl.  She crawls at breakneck speed, and she is walking all over, with help.  She is into EVERYTHING!  There isn't a dull moment when she's down on the floor.  She is very into imitating: she imitates faces, she "woofs" back at Piper, fake coughs and laughs, and repeats sounds.  She is starting to talk a lot more too; her only official words so far are Mama and Dada, but she babbles constantly.  She says "nah nah nah" when she's done with something or mad, says "ba ba ba" and "duh duh duh" constantly, especially when she's concentrating on something.  She even has a version of sign language.  She waves her hands when she's "all done", has a hand signal for "more", and she wags a finger/hand at Piper when you say "No no Woofie!"  She loves to play in the kitchen, pushing anything across the tile floor, and she loves to clinb stairs.  Korie is quite the good eater.  Some of her favorites are Mommy's homemade mac & cheese and chicken & rice, as well as bananas, yogurt, applesauce, and crackers.  Enjoy a couple of pictures of our adorable 11 month old girl!
