One of Evey's favorite things to do at 11 months is to walk around pushing the airplane, shopping cart, big toy trucks, and anything else she can walk along with. She gets up to stand on her own all the time and can take one step before she falls down. She loves to be anywhere her brother is and will abandon the walking while pushing in favor of crawling to keep up with him. She is trying to eat with utensils and wants to drink out of a big cup (no matter what it is) but settles for her sippy and straw cups.
She eats all regular people food and is nursing about 3-4 times a day. She normally still takes 2 naps, 30-60 minutes in the morning, and about 2 hours in the afternoon. She sleeps from about 7pm to 6 or 6:30am. 
She has taken to pointing and making a sound like "dis" (this) for us to tell her what something is or take her to see/touch it. This is especially true for anything she can push/pull like lightswitches, buttons on a radio, etc. She says "a-mee" for Sammie and "a-ix" for Alex. She adamantly shakes her head yes or waves her hands violently to say no (or I'm done). She loves to snack and will go into the pantry and point to what she wants.
Since this post is quite a ways after Evey actually turned 11 months (back on December 2nd), she has progressed since then, and is now officially a WALKER!! She took her first real steps (more than 1--3 to be exact) on December 13th and as of this posting, she has taken up to 13 continuous steps. She's managed to crawl up into Alex's bed by herself and even onto his stepstool. She is getting very adventurous and although she is still crawling into most of her mischief, it is funny to see her standing up on her own in a room when I come in or to think she is at my feet only to discover in a split second she has made it to the other end of the house.
Here are the pictures of Evey at 11 months.
