Last year at this time, we were working feverishly on putting our Dossier together so that we could be added to the waiting list for a referral. And today, not only did we get a baby girl referred....but, we have her and she is 11 months old today. I am already starting to plan her 1st Birthday Party. It will be on May 31st..which is the Saturday prior to her Birthday on June 2nd.
Isabella now tolerates being placed on her tummy and has started scooting backwards. I hear that lots of children do this prior to crawling in the forward direction. And is rolling over like she has been doing it forever. She hasn't gotten to the point of going from a lying down position to sitting. She isn't pulling up yet, but will stand if you help her up..as long as she is holding onto something.
Isabella goes to bed around 8pm and wakes up everyday by 545am. I can now place her in her crib while she is awake and she will sooth herself to sleep. And if she wakes up during the night, she goes back to sleep too. This is totally opposite from those first few weeks after bringing Bella home. She had to have a bottle to go to sleep...and was feeding 2-3 times every night. Whew....I am surely hoping we are past that for good. Keith and I have worked really hard to keep her daily activities as consistent as possible.
