I know I said a day or two, but four is not bad either. Here are a few more cute pictures from eleven months old.
She can stand unassisted for lengthy pauses (up to a minute, I think, no actually timing has taken place). She can stand up from a sitting position without holding onto anything, but she does not do this often. She cruises around furniture quickly. She crawls quickly too. She likes to steady herself with objects that move like the gliding ottoman or Maw's rolling computer chair.
She loves to clap her hands, especially for Patty Cake and "Yay!" She waves bye-bye, hello, and good night. She is back to putting her hands up for "All done / All gone." (She was not doing this for a little while.) She has signed "more" when we are eating, sometimes.
She loves to have a "flower" (clover weed) picked for her so she can smell it and let you smell it. She loves to touch tree leaves and bushes. She crawls up to potted flowers to look at them. She also enjoys crawling on concrete driveways and pick up rocks.
She likes to "share" items with you. She then takes them back, but only to pile them up or "share" with you again. She loves to move piles of items on and off of places such as an ottoman or her chair. She loves to put things in and out of boxes too.
She sort of blows you a kiss (of course with the backwards hand to her open mouth, like the Indian call). She kisses her bear (just the one bear though). And by kiss I mean open mouth with bears head (the bear is that small) pulled in gently. If you ask for a kiss you may get one or not, with the open mouth to your cheek.
And she love, loves to dance or even seat dance. She like to push buttons. She like to push buttons that make noise or have music to them too. She like to have music around her.
