It has been awhile since I wrote. Sorry about that!! You are officially 10 months (and 5 days) old! You are all over the place now. You crawl everywhere, on anything, and at anytime. You get so excited to get around the house. We have to pick up Charlie and Abby's bowls now because you like to splash the water around.
You had your 9 month check up a few weeks ago. You got a few needles that you hated and they checked to make sure you were growing fine! You weighed 21.3 lbs and measured 29.5 inches. Doctor said you are doing great.
We went on vacation this month down the shore for two weeks. You will visit the shore plenty of times as you grow up. Hopefully one day we can live there during the summer. Remember, its never a bad thing to DREAM! We went to the beach and the boardwalk. You didn't really have a reaction to either, but you liked the taste of salt water. You tried to eat the sand, too. We stayed in a house with grandmom, grandpop, aunt Nicki and all 3 dogs. Daddy came down for a week while we were there. You went on about 5 rides on the boardwalk; I think you'll be able to go on a lot more next year.
You have only pulled yourself up to stand once so far, but you are so close. You have been using us to get yourself up but haven't tried things around the house. I think you'll have it down before my next post.
These next couple of months are really fun. Since I am a teacher, I get the summers off. We have been hanging out together since my school year ended. Its been pretty fun so far hanging out with you. We have been swimming in the pool during the day and you really seem to like the pool. We'll have to find a swim team for you when you're a little older!!
It is hard to believe you are almost a year old. Slow down a little, please! Don't grow up too fast on me! Love ya!
Love,
Mom
