10-Months Old

Once again, here we are showcasing another month gone by! I know I am not the only one when I say that time is just going by way to quickly! I want time to STOP!

Mari is so full of personality, spunk and smiles. She has us laughing so many times through out the day. She is still constantly on the go, stopping to be picked up, only to be put down to go again. It's a constant shuffle in the house. She has about four standard crawls so far. We had the initial inch-worm crawl, which has progressed into the 'crawl with one leg, drag the other leg' crawl, sometimes we do the actual 'normal' crawl, and lastly we do the "jungle book" crawl where we are up on our hands and our feet! Whatever gets her to where she wants to go the fastest I guess!

This past month we spent a lot of time outside, enjoying the swing, going for rides in the ranger, and walks around the yard. She also got to enjoy her kiddie pool a few times and loved it! She could spash in water all day long! She loves waving bye-bye to people and blowing kisses at them. We have been doing a little sign language with her and the main word I am trying to focus on is 'mama' since she only continues to say 'dada' :-) I'm also convinsed that her second word at this point is going to be 'kitty'. Somewhere on the totem pole I'm sure I will get a 'mama' out. She loves pulling herself up on everything and finding whatever treasures she can grab on the shelves and she loves helping with laundry...and by helping I mean crawling on top of the nicely folded clothes.

We took her pictures and she was in such a great giggly and goofy mood. It was funny because I took out the blanket that we use for the back drop trying to get everything ready. I got the blanket set up and Mari crawled right over to it and sat in the perfect spot. She knows what it is for! And she started hamming it up for the camera right away.

All posed and ready to go before mama is even ready!


I was too busy laughing at her goofy antics that I was not paying attention at the pictures - so I got a lot of legs/feet cut off! Better luck next month!
