10 months

Can you believe it 10 months old? I certainly can't! I say this every month but we've had a lot of milestones this month. We have our 2 top front teeth. That makes 4 teeth! Where did my sweet baby with the toothless grin go!? I think she is in a phase that Eric really enjoys, not that he hasn't enjoyed her before, but she definitely has a soft spot for her Daddy. I think that is fun for both of us.

As you might have read in yesterday's post she is finally doing what people recognize as crawling. I don't have as much fear now of putting her on the ground and dragging her clothes through the dirt. She is still very slow at creeping, but with a little practice I think she will pick up some speed.
Eating is still a problem, she seems to like to eat meat though. I just break off little pieces of chicken and she puts them in her mouth and eats them. I have tried some of those pureed meats, but she is not as enthused about that (who could blame her, really?) We can get apples or pears mixed with oatmeal in her for breakfast. I think she actually enjoys that. And she is letting us feed her more, she still is just not interested in a lot of the foods we eat. I guess one day, but it can be pretty frustrating for me.
Gwen certainly is getting into more stuff, she likes to chew on everything (but food) and I think she might be a climber. I often find her on her tip-toes looking like she is trying to get up higher, just reaching for the stars. She is now getting up to stand no problem and can and will try to use anything to stand up. We most certainly are on our way to be a babbling big girl! Have a great day.
