11 months

Thought I would send out a little happy since I am awake at 3 am even though Violet isn't.
She turned 11 months on Sunday. It was not ceremonious as we are working on the house upgrades. We finally felt like progress was being made last night when the siding had been replaced, the top or the railing on the deck was redone and the back door is scraped and will be painted over the course of the next couple of days. The last huge thing is to replace the sink in the bathroom and then we are so much closer to being ready...of course there is a LOT of cleaning to do...sigh...cleaning. Violet is enjoying the process as many of our friends and neighbors are coming over in the evenings to babysit. She is so curious about new people and people she knows and how differently everyone plays with her. She is very social, and fortunately, very easy going, so most people are enjoying these evenings of fun.

This photo is a little old, she now looks a little like Art Garfunkle with a crown of fluffy curls that are oh so slowly trying to reach the front of her head.
I will download more photos soon.
