Madison Ashley: 10 Months
Happy 10 months, Madison!
-You weigh approximately 22 pounds and I am not sure how tall you are.
-Still in size 3 diapers
-Mostly 12 and 18 month clothing and all 12 month pajamas. You still have tiny feet; you can finally fit into size 2 shoes! You feet are TINY!
-7 ounces of formula in the morning, 1 5 ounce bottle during the day and 2 ounces at night. You are very much into food and can eat most of what we have; which has been really nice. Over half of the food collects in your bib and misses your mouth, but you are trying! You currently love: anything Apple, silver dollar pancakes from Trader Joe's, Fruit Sauce Crushers from Trader Joe's, eggs, Parmesan risotto...
-Still going to bed around 7:30pm sleep continuously until we get you up around 6:30 am.
-Nicknames: bug de love, little one, Madison (French Accent), puddin pop, pudding, Bug, itty bug
-You still to have a bit of a preference for Mama right now and I have to admit I love it. Don’t get me wrong, you love your Daddy; however, you will reach for me soon after being handed over to Daddy and you seem to cling to me a lot more lately. Makes me feel special.
-You are full blown crawling everywhere all the time and pulling up on anything and everything (we have to watch you like a hawk)! You are simultaneously into everything (I.e pulling out basket of magazines out from under the coffee table, finding the wine bottles on our wine rack (eek), pulling towels off the oven handle...
-You still have two teeth. You seem to be teething like crazy right now and it appears you have several teeth on the top that are about to push through (hopefully).
-You still love to walk assisted. We have a lot of fun with this! You can almost stand on your own, but not quite. Your balance has gotten so much better.
-You can say Mama and Dada and say these all the time.
-You have become much more aware this month as to what is going on around you (it's hard to explain). When I tell you basic things, I can tell you understand. Also, you are very curious how everything works. I can tell by the look on your face, you are trying to figure everything out.
-You have mastered sitting down from standing up. You walk well with your walker unassisted.
-You are crazy active these days (still).
-One of your favorite thing is bath time: You love playing in the water, blowing bubbles and love the water! We can't wait to take you to the pool/beach this summer!
- I have mailed invitations for your first birthday, crazy to think in less than two months you will be one!!
We love you, bug!
