almost

Almost seems to be her destiny these days.  

She is almost able to reach the toys she screams for.  
She is almost ready to eat fingers foods but doesn't really have the chewing thing down too well.
She is almost ready to move to the big car-seat but Momma really likes being able to tote her around while she sleeps in the little bucket.
She is almost ready to sit-up unassisted but still falls uncontrollably to the side after a few solid minutes.
She is almost ready for 12 month clothing but isn't quite big enough for it yet.
She is almost sleeping through the night but those achy gums and new teeth coming up prevent it most nights.
She has almost cemented her nap schedule but the numerous pick-ups in the afternoon have her goofed up.
She is almost able to find her binkies in her bed at night but most times gets too frustrated looking.

Oh dear little one, your almost days will soon be done and we will miss them...
we will forge ahead as you scream and grunt through this funny little time.
