I know I say this every single month…but seriously. How is our baby girl TEN MONTHS OLD already?! Despite the fact that Mike and I are reeling from all of her fun changes in the past few weeks, this is just the best age ever. I know I say that every month, too, but that doesn’t make it any less true. As you can see from her latest portrait, Ellie has more teeth! They are all coming in at once, which has been a blast, let me tell you. Poor kid. We’re still not crawling…but we are close! (If she wasn’t getting so frustrated with her lack of forward motion…I would totally be OK with her staying immobile just a little longer. Mainly due to the fact that all of the baby-proofing gear we purchased is still sitting in our guestroom, wrapped up in a ridiculously large Buy Buy Baby bag. Yeah, it’s doing us a ton of good there. Arg.) Ellie has added “giving kisses” to her repetroire of clapping, waving, “so big!” and peek-a-boo. She is also turning into quite the cuddler. She doesn’t gag any more when eating “puffs,” but will only eat them when we feed them to her, which is hilarious. Same with the sippy cup. Refuses to hold it herself. She’s not stupid…why do it herself if Mommy and Daddy can do it for her? Can’t get enough of this little squirt.
