10 Months

Double digits baby girl! Well, today you are 10 months, that means only 2 more months until your first birthday. Everyone always says if you want time to go fast then have a kid and boy is that true! It felt like 9 months of pregnancy was so long, but the fact you've been here 10 months is just crazy to me! You're such a big girl and you have a big personality to match!

Some things you can now do:
-you crawl
-you pull up on everything and anything
-you cruise along furniture and toys
-you can say "Mama" "Dada" "Lily" "Hi" "Up" and "Hi Bubba" (that's our nickname for you)
-you clap, wave, and bang your hand on your mouth to make noises
-you love your toy house and love to crawl through it
-you love to jump
-you self feed all your own meals, even ones you really need help with, but your stubborn
-you still breastfeed at least 5-6 times a day
-you can sign more and milk, but are pretty stingy with them
-you understand the word "no" but throw a temper tantrum when we say "no"
-if you see someone eating or drinking you whine for the food/drink
-you love watermelon
-you love to feed Lily your food
-you try to steal Lily's toys
-you have not been a fan of the pool this Summer
-you like to put toys in your mouth and crawl around like a dog
-you like to kiss the baby in the mirror
-you are a stubborn little girl who knows what she wants and knows what to do to get it!
-you have many nicknames: Gracie, Baby, Bubba, Bubbalou, Monkey

Keeping growing!

10 Month Pictures:

"Not this again!"
"You're so funny Mama!"
"Uh, but not when you do that."
"Ok, but that's funny!"
"Give me that!"
"Kiss my hand again, it's funny!"
and cue temper tantrum #1
Oh no, we angered the baby!
"I said no more pictures!"
cue temper tantrum #2
Cue destruction
"Fine I'll destroy the place then!"
"I'm so mad I can't even look at you!"
"Um, what is on my head?"
Cue temper tantrum #3
and #4
and the only changing table picture I could get because temper tantrum #5 was starting.

Whew, 5 temper tamtums in 5 minutes! I've heard of the terrible twos, but nothing about the terrible 10 months
