Rose's 11th month of life was full of adventure, good food and smiles. We spent time with some great friends doing a bunch of fun activities and went to spend a weekend with Rose's Grandma Margie and Grandpa Gordon in Atlanta. Also, we had a really great Thanksgiving at home and even took the train uptown to see the Charlotte Thanksgiving Parade. We were so thankful that we were able to have such a full and exciting month with so many people we care about.
Rose took this month to step out of her comfort zone and explore nearly everything! There is no stopping this girl! She is running and carrying heavy things, exploring everything and even running. It is bitter sweet to see the first year of her life coming to an end but we know that the next year promises so much with learning, talking and and playing. Enjoy the pictures of Rose at 11 months old.
