Big girl

I love going to the front windows and looking out to watch Daddy. I get so excited and squeak and talk when I see him. Then when he leaves I yell and stay there waiting for him to come back. Yesterday 2 men came to power wash our house. I stood there and they sprayed the windows. That was fun. Here's a picture of me with my cupcake paci mom found for me and some pictures of me messy after eating frozen gogurt.

10 months!

I'm 10 months young now! As you can see in the pictures my teeth are bothering me. I have 4 top teeth still trying to pop. Well 1 has I am waiting on the others. It's painful. I drool a lot and still have a hard time sleeping thru the night. Let's this past month I have been standing a little more on my own, climbing up the Yankee chair onto the couch, getting down by myself, eating lots of new foods. I am officially off the baby food unless it's in a squeeze pack that I "drink". Mom keeps forgetting to post that I help getting dressed by putting my arms up when taking my shirt off and I will put my arms in when putting my shirt on. I started doing that around 8 months. I am terrible when it comes to getting my diaper changed! It's very hard to get me to stay still. My brother will still make me smile no matter what. Even if he's mean sometimes. I like when he hides. I quickly crawl after him laughing. I still love my momma the most. Although sometimes I let other people hold me for a few minutes. Oh we met our new neighbors last week and there's a little girl named Sky who is 7 months. Maybe we'll be friends. Don't think our moms will be great friends but that's ok. One more thing, people in stores keep saying I am small. I guess I am on the shorter side but I don't think I'm that small, my family definitely doesn't either. Can't wait to see what I'll get into this month. Oops one more thing-I like to open the cabinets and play with anything I can find in there. Mom says my brother never did that so now she might have to put locks on the cabinets.

Finger paint

Mom decided to let me finger paint even though she knew I'd end up eating it. I made to pretty pictures and enjoyed feeling the paint in between my fingers.

Silly Mom

My mom got these silly little wings for me and then had to buy a matching diaper cover and headband. I have a feeling Laura will be over soon to take more! I also found my mom's doll from when she was younger. I love it. And get upset if my brother takes it from me. I think I'm going to love dolls just as much as my mom did! If anyone wants to buy the Stella potter barn doll for me that would be great. It's on Amazon right now for only $20! wink wink :)

Me, me, me

I went to the beach with mom for Laura's bachelorette #2. It was a long, but fun day. I ate some sand, went in the water, crawled around people, hung out in the tent, and of course tried to get everyone's nose. The second picture is of me and one of Laura's friends. The next picture is of me at a restaurant waiting for food. And some of me playing and standing at the front door looking out the window. I like looking for daddy and yelling when I see him out the window.

Cousin Lleyton's 1st bday

Lleyton turned a year on July 13th! I only saw him a handful of times during his first year. Hopefully we will get to see him more this year! His party was at the beach and boy was it a hot day! It was a Sesame birthday so Steve and Rachel decorated with balloons and hanging things, the cake of course was Sesame Street too. Rachel put a picture up from each month of his first year which was really cute. And they had a pool outside for the 3 little ones; although some adults did think about going in. On another note I brought up the little walker for Myla. She uses it here and there. She's very slow but she does it. I have no doubt she will be walking at a year.

Roger Williams Zoo

in Providence is a great zoo! Laura and I went with the kids yesterday. There were so many more fun animals to see and they had an awesome play area for the kids! There was a tree house which looked cool but didn't have much to do inside. They had tents and blocks, paint with water on chalkboards, water that shot out of the ground, fishing area and more. It was super cute and great for a hot day! We enjoyed an informative session on anteaters but sadly missed the monkey b/c it was at the vet. Definitely worth the ride out there.
