11 months....tear

Only one month and our baby will be 1 year old! It's really too shocking to think about so I'll just get to her 11 month update and not think about it.
Our baby:

• loves food. She is basically not interested in baby food at all anymore. We can still get her to eat the fruit, but if you try to give her anything else she waves her hands in front of her face so you can't get the spoon in her mouth. She would rather stuff as much food in her mouth as she can, it's almost like the girl is starving when you watch her take both hands and stuff piece after piece of food in her mouth. She can sign for 'more' but it comes across as clapping, which is close enough for us at this point.
• cruises along furniture, walls, toys... anything. She has taken 4 steps by herself, but is no where near walking full time. That is fine with me. The more walking, the more responsible we have to be with watching her.
• is finally growing hair! But still only has 2 teeth.
• still doesn't talk, no ba, ga, da, or ma. Though today she started to get close to saying ma, so maybe we are on to something now? Even though she doesn't say anything, she knows what things are. (mommy, daddy, doggy, shoe, sock, ball, book....you get the jist)
• hates her carseat again. She hated it for the first 3 months of her life and now she is back to hating it again. We are supposed to keep her in the rear-facing car seat for another month, but I don't think that is going to happen. I think she'll be much happier facing front and being able to see us. Call us bad parents, whatever, you don't have to drive around with a crying, screaming baby! :)
