11 months

Penny is 11 months as of Sunday! She's such a fun girl. She stands pretty much all the time, she likes to climb on top of things mainly her activity center my best friend, Amanda's mom got for Penny. She LOVES music she'll "dance" by bouncing up and down or by waving her arm around. She even thought Chris trying to get the last of the apple sauce out of the container was dance worthy and started to bounce and wave her arm lol. She loves the gate we got so she wouldn't be getting into the electronics all day long and she loves it! She uses it to stand when I set it up in the morning she crawls over and stands up before it's even unfolded. She is very smiley and I usually comments from random people at the store that she is such a happy baby. That is because these people don't see her at home when she completely melts down if you leave her sight for two seconds. But yes for the most part she is a happy baby. She loves her stuff frog that I gave her. She was playing with Chris and saw it behind him so she crawled over him and grabbed and hugged the frog. Chris tells her hug me like you hug your frog :) She likes to give me hugs when I sit and play with her sometimes she'll give me a hug pull away and immediately give an other hug it makes mommy melt. She says mom/momma clearly, she also says something that sounds like hi and bye. She also waves hi and bye. I told her to say hi mom and she waved to me I tried again "Say hi mom" and she said "Hi momma" SO cute! I haven't gotten her to say it again yet but it was fun. She does her signs randomly. On Sunday she was signing milk then started to smack her lips while signing milk. She kinda does the same sign for everything sometimes it's in between all done and milk where she opens and closes her hand while waving it generally when she does this while eating it's right before she's about to start spitting out the food your giving her and not eat anymore. It's nice when I pick up on it, but it's easy to miss as just normal Penny wiggly-ness. She doesn't sit still ever she's is always moving some how. It makes church challenging especially when I try to put her down for a bit of a break and she immediately crawls away to get into someones purse or steal an other kids toy or crawl up the stairs to get to daddy. She's my crazy, loud, beautiful munchkin and we love her to pieces

How she was asleep when we went to bed one night

 If you check out the floor there is a lot of food that she threw over the sides
