Aviela is 11 Months Old!





I feel like I start every Avi post with what a happy baby she is and this one is no different.  She is really just a happy kid.  She does have more of a feisty personality now when she wants something or if you take something away from her that she wants, but she recovers really quickly.

We have all had a lot of colds lately and she is no different.  She has had one, off and on, for weeks now.  Hopefully, her immunity is getting strong.

She still has two teeth, but a third one (top left) should be coming through any minute.  Waiting for some more hair to come in too!  What hair she does have is definitely curly!


Avi now knows how to clap and blow kisses.  Which is a lot of fun.  We haven't spent a lot of time trying to teach her these things then one day I decided we would and of course she didn't do it when I asked.  Then with both things, Pedro asked her to do it and she miraculously did them!  Pretty funny!  She also gives kisses.  She will lay her head on me with her mouth open and say "mmmmm" and pull her head back quickly and do it over and over.


She eats pretty much any food that we have or that I think she might like.  She doesn't love cheese like her sister does, but she does LOVE FRUIT.  Pretty sure she would eat just fruit if I let her.  She likes to eat pancakes, waffles and eggs for breakfast, little biscuits with ground meat for lunch, and frozen veggies.  Dinner time we struggle as she is not as hungry.  She loves to drink from her sippy cup and still drinks from a bottle but is starting to only drink a few ounces before she is done with that.  I wouldn't be concerned but I feel like she has not gained a lot of weight, which seems to be our issue on and off with her.  With her sicknesses and just dislike for eating we struggle in this area.  I assume this will be a life long problem, like her cousin Ashby.  But as long as they are acting fine and growing I guess we will just have to figure it out.


Avi crawls very fast now and uses her "walker" items to walk on her knees.  She seems interested in standing but really never takes an opportunity to do it, so maybe she isn't!  She seems really far from walking since she doesn't even like to walk while holding hands or anything else.

Avi loves Zuri and gets really excited to see her when she is waiting for her after school.  Zuri loves Avi but definitely will find things a lot more fun when Avi can walk and chase after her!
