10 Months Old

Emma Kate is 10 months old! I still can't wrap my head around the fact that she'll have a baby brother by the time she turns 11 months old. Life is full of surprises!
At 10 months old:
- Emma Kate is crawling everywhere!!
- Pulling up & "cruising" on furniture like the couch, ottoman, & table.
- Eating 3 meals a day.
   Breakfast- oatmeal with a jar of veggies mixed in & a jar of fruit.
   Lunch- 1 (sometimes 2) yogurt containers (strawberry is the fav flavor) & some finger foods like Puffs or cheese puffs.
   Dinner- same as breakfast, last week I was trying to mix in meats for dinner instead of the veggie.
- Doing well at picking up finger foods and feeding herself now
- Lots of jabbering and talking.
- Says "dada" all the time and we think "mama" but it sometimes has a "nana" sound to it.
- Goes to bed usually around 7:30pm and wakes up around 7am. Good sleeper!!
- Takes 2 naps a day. Morning nap is around 9 & then goes down for her afternoon nap between 1& 2.
- Shakes her head "no"which is the cutest, funniest thing now. Probably won't be so cute in the future.
- Laughs, giggles, and gets tickled at different things!!
- Still has the most amazing smile that makes my heart melt!
- Stands up in her crib & chatters away after naptime. When I come in her room she starts waving and gets all giddy!
- Likes to look at buttons or zippers on peoples clothes.
- Loves Nash and likes to stand with him at the front window.

10 months and such a happy girl! We couldn't ask for a more wonderful daughter! Here are some recent pics I wanted to share.
