Yes, I am late with this...super, duper late. Sorry.
11 months! Can you hardly believe it, my monkey is over 11 months old now. Her FIRST BIRTHDAY is just 3 weeks away. Geez...where did the year go?
Anyhow, there are quite a few pretty important updates. For starters there are these...

Kenzie finally got her first two teeth. The first one came through on October 30th and the second was the day before Thanksgiving. So, at 10 months we can finally say she is toothless no more!
Another major milestone is our little monkey is on the move...literally. She started to try to crawl while I was in Illinois. And now...there is no stopping her. Time to finish child proofing!
Monkey has her 1 year appt in a few weeks, but as of now she weighs in at a little over 17 lbs. Her limbs have even out some in comparison to her torso and she fits in about the same size clothes as her age (ie 12 month clothing). Her feet are still tiny and I tried to put on some size one shoes and they fit...nuts. She has been approved for her PT and OT to continue for another year which is great. It at times is exhausting for both her and I, but completely worth all the work. We finally have an appt with a geneticist. This is not the one that denied seeing her, but one the state is paying for. How ridiculous is that? I have insurance and got an approval, but have to see a different state funded doctor because doctor number one won't see her? Don't get me wrong, I am grateful for her to see a doctor, but the last time I checked the state is in severe debt. Anyhow, that appt is in a few weeks. There is a study out that showed pregnant women who took antibiotics while pregnant, the fetuses showed reduced limb growth. I am curious to see the results of that. I basically lived on antibiotics since week 17 when I was dilated, so it needed to be done. But, still curious.
Kenzie is still an eating machine. She does have her likes and dislikes though. Currently, her newest fave is spinach/artickoke dip or cheese balls (shredded cheese formed into a ball) - as we call them. So, yesterday I pureed some artichoke hearts and mixed it with cooked spinach and cheese and made little balls out of them. She loves them!
Kenzie is still cloth diapered and I still love it. I do have a whole new list of favorite and not so favorite diapers now though. My absolute favorite is the new
Flip. We have four of them and I could really get rid of all my pockets and still be set for laundry every 3 days. We still do use pockets for night time so I guess I'd have to keep three of those. Yep, you read it right...we have graduated to nightime (12 hours) cloth diapering. And still I wouldn't go back to disposables. In total since I started I think she has leaked through her diaper maybe 2 or 3 times and it wasn't too bad. I have already begun researching cloth training pants, but we have a long ways to go there.

Miss Marvelous for sure!
