10 Months Old

"Hey!  There's my bunny!"
"Wait a minute...are we doing that picture thing again?"
"Your ear is pretty tasty...just like I remember"
"What? You want me to smile?"
"Eh, I'd rather just peek over this chair"
"You guys are so silly!"
"Hmm...what's that?"
"I think I will chew it."
And there is always time for a quick thumb suck.
"Why do you guys have me posed like this?"
"Whatever.  Peace out."
This string of pictures gives you an idea of Marlee at 10 months.  This girl is is all over the place and into everything!

Just moved into 9-12 month clothes and has graduated to a size 3 diaper.

She isn't walking yet, but she is SO close.  She crawls really fast and can stand up on her own and stay steady for quite a while.  She starts to take a step and then decides that should would rather crawl.

Still sleeping 11 hours at night, from 8:00pm to 7:00am.  Remember when I said she was down to two naps a day at 9 months?  Well, that must have been just a fluke.  We are back to three short naps...usually about 30min-1 hour.  Naps have never been her strong suit.

Still drinks 6oz every four hours/four times a day and is such a good eater...although she prefers her fruit.  She has just about mastered the sippy cup and is finally learning that she needs to tilt it to get a drink.

Still babbling like crazy and blowing bubbles and clicking her tongue   She has recently started saying "Oooooo", like an owl.

Learned how to wave bye-bye and likes to throw it out there whenever she feels like it.  She has yet to use it when we are actually doing bye-bye.

We read the same two books every night: "I Love You Through and Through" and "Goodnight Moon".  And then we say a quick prayer.  We just started the prayer and she isn't a fan yet, so we have to be real fast. 

She has started dancing and will bounce like most babies do, but then she does this thing where she turns her head from side to side.  It just cracks me up.

She is very ticklish and will give us a big belly laugh when we tickle her, breathe on her neck, or blow in her face.
