11 months

Tatum turned 11 months three days ago and I just can't believe it. My baby is getting so big way too fast and I don't know if my lovely pregnancy hormones can take it. Tatum is so much fun these days and is such a little stinker.


She was supposed to be napping but instead took her pants off so I had to take a pic. So ornery!

At 11 months you:
.weigh close to 20 lb
.wear mostly 12 months but pants are too long
.wear size 4 diaper
.cutting 4 top teeth
.getting lots of hair
.wake up between 6:30-7:30. You have been waking up at random times in the early a.m. but go back to sleep. I think it's bc you're teething
.bedtime at 8
.you drink 5 6 oz bottles
.eat oatmeal & yogurt for breakfast, followed by a bottle 30
min later
.eating started slow but you're doing great now
.eat 1/2 jar of baby food for lunch & dinner, followed by bottles
.working on real food-you've had mandarin oranges, strawberries, green beans & carrots
.you LOVE Andy Griffith. You watch an episode with your nap & bedtime bottles
.say hi, bye bye, mama, dada, ball
.you put your cell phone to your ear when we say hello
.nap twice a day-morning 1-1.5 hrs, afternoon 2-2.5 hrs
.walk by yourself with walking toys
.shake your head no & nod yes
.pull up on everything
.getting too big for your car seat

I don't want to compare my girls but I really hope baby sister is as happy as Tatum. You are the happiest most joyful child ever. It's so fun watching your sweet personality develop

Tatum says...

Thats right! This little gal is going to have a SISTER!! I was SHOCKED when we heard "its a girl". Billy and I both really thought it was a boy. Like to the point where we said "he" and called him by name a few times (sorry sweet girl). Yesterday i was still certain it was a boy but Billy was thinkin girl and didn't tell me. I seriously couldn't stop laughing when we found out because I was so surprised.

We are both thrilled that we will have two girls 15 1/2 months apart. Can you say mad house?!
I really hope baby sister is tough because Tatum is seriously a brute!

We have zero names because I didn't think we needed one since it was a boy. I really hope she's named before she's born but we are stumped right now. Tatum came to us so easily and I really didn't think we'd have more girls so I wasn't worried.

The ultrasound looked great. Baby girl is measuring 20 weeks and is healthy. It was so fun telling friends and family because 4 people out of at least 20 said girl. Needless to say, almost everyone was probably as surprised as we were when they saw Tatum's "It's a girl" picture.

Well, 20 weeks down, 20 or less weeks to go. Crazy! My doc is so funny because I really expected to get in trouble about my weight gain( seriously gained like 4 lbs in 2 weeks) so when he didn't mention it I asked him about it. Haha he chuckles and says "well it is a bit aggressive". Billy and I started cracking up! It was the nicest way a doc can comment and we thought it was so funny. Anyway, I have got to stop baking cookies every WEEK and put down the skittles while I bake. So here's to a new week with less sweets.

We find out the gender of this lil baby on Tuesday! I'm starting to get really excited! We have a boy name picked out but haven't really thought of girl names-i cant make up my mind. Honestly we both really think it's a boy so girl names have been hard. I will be SHOCKED if theres a lil gal growin in there but I'll be super excited with either. I just really think it's a lil guy.
I'm afraid I'm gonna get a finger wave at my appointment because I haven't been staying away from sweets and I'm pretty sure I've put on 2 or 3 lbs in the last week...oops! I gained weight fast the first half of my pregnancy with Tates and then things leveled out for a while so I'm hoping this pregnancy will be the same. We shall see.
I didn't take a pic this week but here I am at 18 weeks



My next post will be a gender reveal and then 3 days later my baby will be ELEVEN months old. I think I may cry
