Addison Update

It has been way too long since I've updated our blog.  Since last post Addison has made quite a few advancements in her life.  She is now walking and talking in full sentences and every once in a while we let her drive the car.  Ok so maybe it hasn't been that long.  This little girl has really been so much fun to have around, I just wonder how we got so lucky to have it so good!  Here are a few things she is doing now that she's 10 months!
  •  Crawling!  She has been doing this for a while.  She crawled for the first time on my birthday.  I know great gift.  She is a pro, in her own unique crawl.  She slides one leg partially under her while the other kind of walks along.  It doesn't seem to be any less effective than the normal crawl.  She pulls up to a stand on everything she can grab on to.
  • Clapping and cheering.  She does this little squeal like she's saying YEA!  She loves to laugh and giggles at some of the most random things.
  • Awesome eater.  There isn't a thing this little girl won't eat, including those things she shouldn't aka shoes.  When she is ready for more she kicks her legs and gets real excited/impatient if that spoon isn't getting to her mouth fast enough.
  • Has a mouth full of teeth and loves showing them off as she smiles all the time.
  • Loves to swim.  We swim her under the water and she come up out of the water ready to go again.
  • She can wear pig tails!  Mom especially loves this, it is one of the joys of having a little girl.
  • Continues to be an AWESOME sleeper!  She sleeps around 11 hours and take two 2 hours naps and sometimes one more hour long nap, on those days that are just exhausting.
  • Stands on her head.  This is a new thing but she loves to stand on her head or push books around with her head.
  • Favorite toys: Books, Tiger, kitchen utinsels, and mom & dad.
