10 months

Goldie is ten months. I can't get over it. How is she almost one!? I'm dying over here!

CLOTHES:  Shirts/Dresses 6-12 months, but in her fall wardrobe I'm buying 12-18, She's long and skinny. Pants: 3-6 but they're floods, so we buy some 6-12. Diapers size 3

EYES: She has the clearest, blue as blue can be, beautiful eyes, with long, dark lashes over them. Lucky girl.

TEETH: 6! It made for some rough weeks, but so worth her new toothy grin!

MILESTONES:

GOLDIE TOOK HER FIRST STEPS!! This month Goldie has thought it would be cool to start walking at nine months. She takes steps from thing to thing, but when she's in a hurry, or has taken too many falls that day, her transportation of choice is crawling. Her record to date is 12 steps!! Go baby!

She has also started to be more chatty. Although it's mostly a language all her own, she has added "Hi" and "Bye" along with a wave. She also signs more, claps, and blows kisses, my favorite!

She slept through the night two nights in a row!! Wahoo! Those were the only two nights in her entire ten months... so we are still working on that. She has a routine, and everything... just doesn't want to miss out I guess! Who needs sleep anyway?

LIKES:

- stuffed animals. Loves giving loves, and kisses of course.

- food. Especially pizza, smoothies, ice cream, squash.... let's be real, she likes everything. We have a champion of an eater.

- helping mom. With laundry, unfolding folded clothes, taking everything out of it's place, but man it's cute.

- social settings. She lives for playing with other kids! She is just a social butterfly, and can't wait to say hi, and give loves. Especially to boys... sorry boy mamas in advance for my forward daughter, she's so sweet though!

- feeding herself. As you could imagine, it's super messy.

- exploring. Guys she's all over the place!

- books. She loves to read books.



DOESN'T LIKE:

The only thing I can think of is sitting still in church. She wants to be down and going to see all the kids. So most Sundays are spent in the hall with our busy girl!

family walks

Family walks are our favorite. We try to go every night, to unwind and talk about our day. Our new neighborhood is perfect for walks! It has a trail going all the way around it, then a fun park in the middle... so we decided to give it a try tonight with Goldie... and she LOVED it. I love seeing her experience things for the first time.

summer 2015

It is has been such a fun summer for us! So many memories made, lots of pool time (we could always use more though), and time spent with loved ones. Goldie has been such a fun addition to our family, and it has been so cute watching her experience things for the first time.
