Twinkle Toes - you are TEN months old!

Twinkle Toes - you are TEN months old!

Adjusted/corrected age of 36 weeks!

 

What are you up to these days?

·   You weigh around 17 pounds

·   You wear a size 2-3 diaper

·   You wear mostly 9 months clothes

·   You are an eating machine but you still only eat purees, milk or chunky purees. You eat pretty much anything I give you though. You love carrots, avocados, bananas, yogurt, sweet peas, sweet potatoes, peaches, pears and pretty much anything else.  There has only been one food you’ve refused – rice.  Anything with rice you refuse.

·   You take a good 1-2 hour nap every morning but refuse an afternoon nap.  You’re a great catnapper though.

·   You are still sleeping through the night now. You go to bed around 7:30-8 pm and sleep till 4:30 am on the weekdays.

·   You are just so curious – you love to figure things out.

·   You have so much personality and the brightest eyes. You are SO social!

·   You are SO vocal and are constantly making noise.   Still no “real” words just yet but you’re on your way.  But I know once you get going we will never get you to be quiet. You are going to be a talker!

·   You still only have the two bottom teeth! One of these days the top two will pop thru.  We know you’re teething right now – you are a drooling fool and a bit miserable at times.  I know those suckers really hurt – they are so red and puffy.

·   You and you’re tongue – you are always sticking your tongue out of your mouth!

·   You never stop moving. You are constantly trying to crawl, or pulling up on things.  When you get a little steadier - you will most pull yourself up OR actually crawl.  I know you will be crawling like a champ by your first birthday, if not sooner!

·   You have started to kind of wave and clap your hands! Especially when you think you have done something great!

·   You have changed SO much. I look back at your earlier months and can't believe you big you are now.

·   Your iron levels were checked at your 9 month appt and your numbers were awesome!

·   You enjoy watching the birds outside and checking out the new flowers in the garden.

You truly are a wonder to us.  Your progress is truly amazing!
