10 Months

Well today marks Emmy turning 10 months!  Every month I cannot believe how quickly time flies by and how much my little baby changes!  This month has been no different.  Emmy is into EVERYTHING!  She is completely mobile now.  I thought I was tired before, but now the fun has really begun (insert sarcasm here :)  She really is at such a fun stage but keeps this mama on her toes as I chase her around the house.  She no longer wants to cuddle, but wants to GO and quickly! Pictures are VERY CHALLEGING these days!  She does not want to sit still for anything and my camera is definitely not fast enough to capture her quick enough. This month has also been a tough teething month as she tries to break her top two teeth through.  The bottom two were nothing in comparison to these ones.  We had a few really rough days of runny nose, fever, no sleeping, lots of tears and crankiness.  I hope this gets easier, but from what I hear this is only the beginning!

 Growth- Well at your 9 month checkup you were 18.5 lbs which is in the 45% to weight and 27 1/2 inches tall which is in the 50 %.  You are finally starting to slow down a little on the growth scale.  You are wearing 12 month clothing and size 3 diapers. 

 New happenings- Well you are fully mobile and loving every minute of it.  You crawl around every where and are pulling yourself up onto anything you can.  You want to walk so badly and can with help but just not ready to fully let go.  You are still teething and trying to break through your top two teeth. You keep your mommy and daddy very busy these days and we are loving it!

 Likes and Dislikes- Well not much has changed in this department since last month.  You love to take your nightly baths, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse in the mornings, drinking water from your sippy cup or a glass, chocolate ice cream, your sleep sheep, and still sometimes your lambie wubanub depending on your mood!  You still hate getting into your car seat, having your diaper changed by mommy or grandma, and the last of the ice cream.  I created a monster in you by ever letting you taste mommy's ice cream. 

Eating and Sleeping- You love to eat just like your mama!  You would love to be able to eat and try everything we are eating.  You are such a good eater and I hope this continues.  Sleeping is still hit and miss.  Teething has not helped this month for sure!  I have confidence that you will be back on a regular sleeping pattern soon :)

 

You are such a sweet baby girl and we love you to pieces!  You bring such joy to our lives and we are so blessed to have you! It is hard to believe that in just a couple months you will be one years old :(  I hope you know how much your are loved and adored.

 

Hugs, kisses and loves <3

 

Your Mommy and Daddy
