10 months old!

Wow, 10 months! Where did they go?

We can hardly believe that M is 10 months old.

This last month has brought many changes for our sweet girl.

1. 3 teeth now...and still counting or cutting, whichever you choose!

2. Walking...Yes, she is walking. And she is getting really good at it.

She can walk a good 30 steps sometimes without stopping or sitting.

3. She loves when A and R practice cheerleading. She will

bounce and "cheer" right along with them. I wonder where

they got this from?

4. She has sounds she makes that represents A and R's names.

She does not use them all the time, but when she does you know it.

5. She loves music, and loves when A and R sing into their High School Musical

microphones...she gets it and sings into it too.

6. She loves to pull the white tips off of our doorstops and put them in

her mouth. Therefore, if you come to our house and you don't see any,

that is why. We have taken them all off and put them up for now.

7. She goes to bed pretty well, but knows that if she fusses even a little,

you will come back and pick her up. She knows you will stay, too, if

she will only lay her head on your shoulder...so cute...how can one resist?

8. LOVES, LOVES, LOVES the biter biscuits! Yes, the ones that are

really messy and stick like cement to your face (as B says). She

can eat a whole one in about 10 minutes.

9. She is so over baby food. She would rather eat whatever we

are eating. Therefore, I am trying to add in new foods as soon as

I can so that we can have a varitey.

10. She has really gotten into the "play" thing this month. She likes to be

around all of us as much as possible, but she is really getting the hang

of playing alone for short stretches. It is so much fun to watch her

playing with her toys.

We are really enjoying all that each new day brings. God really knew what He was

doing when He chose to bless our lives with another daughter and little sister. We

look forward to many more months of new things. We love you, M!

Love, Mommy, Daddy, A and R
