Maisy Mischief- 11 months

 Maisy turned 11 months yesterday. I have no idea how much she weighs or how tall she is. I do know that she is growing but that she seems increasingly small to me as she starts doing way too much big girl stuff. Maisy loves pulling to a stand on EVERYTHING. She isn't walking but is getting closer to walking holding onto one hand. She has stood by herself for a few minutes at a time, but I'm guessing she will start walking right around her first birthday like the others did. The top picture shows the first and only time I've put Maisy's hair in a pony. She really resists the bow thing too and doesn't have much hair anyway.

 Maisy is still putting her mouth on everything and likes to yell while doing so. She has really found her voice this month and seems to be "talking" and babbling a lot more. She says "ma" for mom and some other things. She also says "da" for dad and a lot of other things.
Do you like the fuzzy hair? Maisy has totally wild hair and it is curly (or fluffy if it isn't fixed)
This is the mischief I mentioned. She opens up and empties cupboards and likes to tease me by pulling the towel off of the oven.
Gotcha, Mom!
Not pictured here, is Maisy's love of the toilet. It is like Gracie all over again. She loves to fish and swish. I have to keep an eye on her at all times and we try to keep the bathroom doors closed.
My favorite thing about this age is that Maisy is starting to understand so much more and is becoming a snuggler when she is tired. At church she is the squirmiest thing I've ever seen. We sure love Maisy. I cannot believe she is almost a year. She is such a happy girl.

What a total cheese ball. I love it. Her little toothy teasing smile says it all--she's so fun and funny.
