Let me first start by saying that it has gotten increasingly harder each month to get photos of Emily sitting still, so this month we just have some of her in her element – on the go…truly representing who she is at 10 months. This girl is always on the go and getting into anything she can! I cannot believe she is 2 months shy of being a year old! Let’s take a look at our baby girl this month:

• She likes running in her walker – especially chasing after Elly
• She also likes intentionally dropping her food off her highchair for Elly to eat
• She is still working on learning how to use a sippy cup – she was never interested in holding her bottle (because she was never really interested in eating at all, so learning how to hold and use sippy cup has been a process, but this week she has grasped the concept of the straw sippy which is a big win for us!)
• She is saying more “mamas” and “dadas”
• She has become a pro at throwing her bunny and paci out of the crib to get our attention
• Favorite toys: tupperware, her musical elephant and books
• She has recently started initiating waves, not just waving when someone waves at her
• She continues to mimic Elly more and more everyday from saying “woof” sometimes after Elly barks to occasionally eating a puff off the floor with her mouth like Elly does – real life!
• She has also gotten good at handing stuff to us when we ask for it
• Her spiky hair is still in full-effect…a headband doesn’t even help at this point (see below lol)
• We are pretty sure she is (finally) working on two more teeth
• Her laugh is pretty much the best thing ever!

Here’s our little peanut – 18lbs and 27.5 inches long!
