10 Months!

Nora,

You are 10 months old today. It is also Uncle Nate's 14th birthday. I can't believe both of you are as old as you are! This month has been so much fun watching you grow. You are almost walking, and love to explore. There is no keeping you in one room anymore. You also do not like to be put in the walker or exersaucer anymore. You just want to be independent and climb on everything. You are in the process of having your top 2 teeth cut through. One of them has broke through just barely, and the other one is pretty close. It looks like you might get all of your teeth in pairs. And luckily for me, teething isn't too bad for you. You are pretty cheerful all the time as long as you get enough sleep. And as for sleep...I was worried you would never go back to sleeping trough the night. This week Dad and I talked about making you cry it out...you must have read our minds because you started sleeping from 8 - 4:30 and then back to sleep from 4:30 - 8...YAY! We love you so much Nora! This month you have also really started loving books. And you no longer want your baby food if you see anyone else eating. You only want "big people" food. I found a playgroup in our ward and you loved going to play with all the other kids. You say "Daddy" now and hearing you say "Mom" isn't such a rare occurance anymore. We are trying to teach you some sign language though, because you just grunt/scream when you want more of something. You also started copying things people do, which is hilarious. You clap when people clap and laugh with your little goofy fake laugh when other people do it too. You are growing and learning so much, i'm sure there is some things I have forgotten, but we are so proud of you! We love you BeBe!

Love, Mom and Dad
