Audrie is 10 Months Old!!!


Audrie has been 10 months old for 3 days now…and I am just now writing her 10 month post…Oops.
To go along with her 9 month post, her is another exhaustive list, I will try to not to do any repeats:


  • You love a sippy cup with a straw. Not the Nuby kind or the Lil’ Munchkin brand, they are too hard for you to suck out of it. You like the Playtex kind. However, you love to drink out of mommy’s straw best.
  • You have discovered in the past week that your finger fits perfectly in your nostril. And you do this often.
  • You are taking many steps at a time. Usually, you “walk” best on concrete or if we are somewhere besides our house. I have no idea why.
  • You tried whole milk for the first time about a week ago. Mommy's plan is to start slowly and have you completely on whole milk at 12 months. And to be completely off a bottle and solely on a sippy cup. Good thing we found those Playtex ones with the straw!
  • You went swimming for the first time in a big pool on memorial day. You loved it. Mommy put you under water and you didn’t seem to care, however, it made daddy nervous so I couldn’t do it again!
  • You are wearing some 18 month clothes L
  • You have been nodding your head “no” a lot, and sometimes in the correct context.
  • You point at things
  • Daddy and mommy are trying to teach you how to say dog. However, you try to imitate us and say “gawd”.
  • You are so long, it makes mommy want to cry. She misses her wittle baby.
  • This month we added graham crackers and shortbread cookies to snacks you can eat. And like.
  • Mommy has been feeding you what she eats for dinner. You really like this.
  • Mommy and daddy have purposefully tried to make you rough. Sometimes, you’re a little too rough and you get hurt because you think you can do anything.
  • You wont let me rock you to sleep anymore. It is bittersweet. I enjoy that I can get stuff done as soon as you are sleepy and I put you down, but sometimes I miss holding you.
  • You have a best friend named Adalynn. Now, you know each other and when you are in the nursery together at church, you follow each other around. Sometimes you even want to be rocked together.
  • You have been taking bubble baths. Sometimes you try to eat the bubbles.
  • Every morning you and mommy go for a walk. You love to be outside. 
  • You are still quite attached to mommy and you dont like when someone takes you from mommy. Sometimes even when it is daddy.
  • You love playing with your cousins. And you had a new baby boy cousin that was born on May 31.
  • You still on say "ma-ma" or "ma" when you are crying or whining. You still love saying da-da all day!   
Everyday, mommy and daddy love you more and more, and each day we feel like its impossible to do so. You are SO much fun and so silly. You make us laugh all the time. You have such a sweet spirit. You love to smile, and it melts mommy’s heart. Even though I feel sad that you are growing up so fast, I love watching you grow. When life seems hard, I look at you and everything gets better.
