Walking Girl

Nina took 4 steps by herself yesterday! The hardest part is for her to stand by herself. Once she lets me let go of her, she took 4 or 5 steps. She did it several times and we caught it on video too! Because of this she's having a hard time taking naps. When she's moderately tired she just won't relax. I have a hunch she's walking back & forth in her crib. :)

10 Months



Wow, I am 10 months old!! Here's a rundown of my progress so far...
I am learning to walk! I like to cruise around the coffee table and on the couch. I love it when big people hold my hands so I can walk around the rest of the house. I like to push things but not very many things go on the carpet.
I am trying to get into the cupboards, but none of them open very far.
I have four teeth! I got them all very quickly and my face has a rash, so more might be on the way. Mama has stopped putting her fingers in my mouth to check for any more, so the only way to find out will be when it comes up!
I am trying to talk. My favorite sounds are "da da da da da da" and "ma ma ma ma ma ma" and "blah blah blah blah." I could say them before, but it's all new now that I have teeth. Also, Daddy makes a funny clucking or clicking sound and I like to imitate him.
I can wave! I love to say "bye bye" to people. Sometimes I wave when Mama says "hi." It's just so fun to make people look at me & smile. :)
I can eat new foods. I like bagels and pieces of bread. I really like the texture in my hands, so after I chew on it for a while I take it out to feel it. Mama gets frustrated with so many crumbs and sticky pieces of bread. I don't like cheerios anymore and I don't like babyfood either. Mama's spaghetti is sooo much better.
I have a sense of humor. When I get to take a bath with Will, we are very silly together. Tonight we played "This little piggy..." on each other's feet. He is so nice to me. He tickles me, and hugs me and kisses me all the time. Sometimes Mama has to tell him to stop because he does it so much. I like to laugh at Will and he likes to laugh at me. We get each other going all the time!
My favorite show is "Little Einsteins." I would rather watch one of the Baby Einstein shows, but this is my next favorite. Will loves this show, so it's nice for Mama that we like at least one show together.
I had pictures taken a few weeks ago and we get to pick them up later this week. I love the camera! Mama will probably post a picture here in a few days. And she will update this page if I learn anything else new or pop any more teeth. Have a good day everyone!
