My little baby is 10 months old! That is almost 1!!! Wait, didn't I just have her?? She has been such a joy to have around here. Honestly, I couldn't ask for a better baby. I'm sure I have said it before, but she deserves the praise. She is happy, sleeps great, and has such a cute little personality.
Here are some of things that she does at 10 months-*She is always on the move! She crawls everywhere and loves to put everything in her mouth. It makes me sweep my floor often!
*She loves baby dolls. She has 3 and those are her favorite things to play with over anything else. She laughs when she sees their faces, it is so darling.
*Claire and Carter have a sweet little bond. She LOVES him. He LOVES her. She lights up every time he comes in the room. She lights up when Preston comes around too, but he usually doesn't want her to "suck on his toys." He thinks she slobbers on everything and that grosses him out. It's pretty funny. Carter doesn't seem to mind, and will love on her whenever she wants him too. I also hear him reading to her her baby books over the baby moniter when I am downstairs. It melts my heart.
*She has been pulling herself up on furniture, my legs, and in her crib. I love going to get her in the morning or from her nap and see her standing up just smiling at me. She thinks she is so big. She'll get so excited to see me, she starts to bounce.*When she gets excited or happy she scrunches up her nose and breathes really fast out of her nose. It is hilarious to watch. My mom says I did the same thing at her age.
*I love her curly hair like her dad's. When it is wet (like in the picture above I had just gotten her out of the bath) it is just perfect little barrel curls all over. I hope it stays.
*She is still SO tiny. I weighed her 2 weeks ago and she was 15 pounds. I take her in for her checkup next week so we will see where that puts her on the growth charts. Her cousin Chase who is 4 months younger weighs more than her! She just doesn't really care about eating and takes forever to eat her bottle most of the time. She just takes her time and relaxes.*She hates baby food and only wants what we are eating. Her favorites are waffles, peaches, easy mac, and cheerios.
*She babbles to herself all the time. I wish I knew what she was saying. It sounds like "A-booyah-booyah-boodah. She also says mama dada and baba.*she waves when you wave to her and will clap when she gets excited
*last but not least she sucks her thumb and grabs her ponytail when she is tired or needs comfort. It is the cutest thing in the world! It's about the only time she will let me cuddle her. Normally she is too busy looking around to snuggle with me. This little princess has brought so much joy to our family. We just love her to pieces. I wish I could freeze time and keep her at this age, she is so fun.
