10 Months

10 months (tear...). you are such a big, yet tiny girl. 15lbs to be exact. found that out when we went to see if double ear infection #3 was better. the dr. said "well, it doesn't look infected anymore, but there is a lot of fluid so it probably will be infected soon." awesome. we need our own personal parking spot and better insurance. you still don't love liquids, but you're better than last month. fairly proficient at the pincer grasp, but finger foods are limited by your lack of teeth. just two bottom ones that you've had for months. you babble away all day long and drumroll please....you said "mama" a few days after your 10 month birthday! it never bothered me that you said "dada" but it sure warmed my heart when you said "mmmm mama". you also started putting your face in the water during bath time and blowing bubbles. you think it's hysterical!! and i'm hoping this means you'll like the pool this summer. DEFINITELY more opinionated these days. still a super happy girl, but if you don't like something (for example being still to have your diaper changed) you can turn on the water works in seconds! good grief... you make daddy and i so happy and i am counting the days until residency is over and i see your sweet face every morning!

you were definitely on the go for all of these pics, but at least you're over the tongue phase!
