Aria Grace: Ten Months

Ten Months.  That is so much closer to the one year mark than I can believe! You are such a fun, sweet, silly, and busy girl!  Here is what you have been up to the past month.

Size:  You were down a bit on your percentiles last month, so we will take you soon to get you measured again.  I think you might not be destined to be above the 90th percentile forever. :)  You are wearing mostly 12 month clothes, but your feet are small!

Eating-You love to eat and are quite insistent when we are not fast enough.  You are getting much better at signing "more."  The other day you were shrieking in your high chair and Lyle said, "Aria!  Don't yell.  You say "Mama, more!"  Haha I think he's heard that a few times!  We mostly cut up our fruits and vegetables for you, but bananas and cereal are still a favorite.  We had a bit of a scare this month in the form of a possible allergic reaction.  We backed off on table food for a bit, and you haven't had any more problems.

Likes- You are all over the place! You are getting fast, and every time we turn around you are into something different.  You love to play with Lyle's toys (forget those boring baby toys!) especially his legos and his tools.  You love to be tickled and to play peek-a-boo.  When I come to get you out of your crib you look like a bird flapping your arms, you are so excited!  You take a pacifier...mostly when you sleep. You love to play with Snickers, Kodi and Shawn's dog.
   

Milestones-  You still pull up on furniture and walk along it.  Every once in awhile you stand for a few seconds by yourself.  You have started signing "more"...always in relation to wanting more food!  We are working on "please" and "all done."    

  

Fun Firsts-  You attended your first wedding, got to have fun weekends playing with your new cousin, and went swinging at the park.

Lyle Update:  My favorite quote from this month:
Lyle had blocked the doorway to the kitchen with a tower of toys so Aria couldn't get in the playroom.  He said, "I trapped you out.  That's a bummer, huh baby sis?"  HAH!  

Happy Happy Happy!  We love you Aria Grace!
