Happy 11 months, Hallie!

Normally I would have taken 11 month pictures today of sweet Hallie Shea. However, I'm having to postpone that photo shoot as our subject of the photos is a little under the weather. She's teething again (not that it ever really stops), so she's all snotty and congested (ick). Also, now that she's toddling, she has a few scrapes, bruises, and bumps on her sweet noggin. Hopefully next week she'll be feeling better and I can snap a few pictures.

So...Hallie is 11 months old today and she suddenly became fearless. Once she learned that putting one knee up at a time would help her get closer to the top, she took off! She never made it all the way to the top of the stairs, though. She would get about five or six stairs away and then look down and reach out for Mommy or Daddy! Don't worry, Jonathan and I were with her every step of the way! (And grandparents, don't worry...there's never any unsupervised stair-climbing time! We always have a baby gate up!)

Mommy, Daddy! I'm SO high up!
