November flew by!

Now that Shaylen is 13 mo, I will post pictures of her first birthday party! and of her 1 year photo shoot in Rockford.

October and November flew by this year, as we are already in December now. These little ones really make time fly. November was great fun watching Shaylen continue to grow and change. She started walking full time the weekend before thanksgiving, which was scary in and of itself, but so fun to watch. She knows almost all her body parts like her arms, eyes, nose, ears, and even eyebrows. She like to babble, but says dada, for almost anything, even her mom! She loves to play hide and seek, she will go around the corner and come out and smile or we will chase her around the chair. She loves legos, or duplos, whatever you call them, and is getting so good at putting the shapes in her shape box.

Thanksgiving was fun with her and we had a great time spending time with family and eating good food. We had a 4 day weekend with Shawn home before he left for his work trip.

Unfortunately despite the wonderful firsts, girlie has had some not so fun firsts like, first time getting sick, all over me of course :), and first time to ER. The ER trip just had to happen while Shawn was gone to San Francisco for work, but it all worked out. Thank goodness for grandmas! We were thankful that it was nothing major, and got rid of the fever!!
