10 Months!

Our baby girl is 10 months old! This month she has been a busy little bee. She has perfected the art of crawling and can do it really fast. You can leave her in a room, and when you turn around, she is right behind you. Pulling up on anything and everything is Callie's new favorite trick. We are having to constantly watch her! Her favorite thing to pull up on is the Baby Einstein activity center that we borrowed from Griffin. There is a wheel that makes animal sounds that makes Callie squeal:) The coffee table and our pants are also popular pull up spots. She can stand alone for about 1 second before she realizes she isn't hanging on to anything. Dancing along to music is another adorable trick...one she learned from me no doubt! Hehe:) We are still struggling with table food, but we have found a few things that she likes. She enjoys chicken, cereal bars, and is OBSESSED with Multigrain Cheerios! It is really funny. A sippy cup is still not our friend.

After 2 days, several hours, and a lot of fighting, this is the best picture I could get! She is too busy to stay in her chair, and leaving her sign alone is just not an option.

So many out-takes!


Trying to stand up in her chair!

"I am out of here!"

I even tried to distract her with her seahorse. Still no smile! (She loves that thing...thank you Grandma and Grandpa!)

Taking a break...

This is right before she did a FLIP off of her chair onto the floor!!! It took a very athletic move to catch her, and there were NO tears or injuries...whew...scared me to death.

Showing off the new skills...and trying to get to the 10 Month sign.

a little dancing:)

Take 2! This try, she was obsessed with putting things in her mouth:(

She loves to eat her shoes and her toes...strange.

If I could have gotten her to look up, this would have been GREAT!

done...

This month has flown by! We are thinking of Halloween costumes, Thanksgiving plans, and 1st Birthday parties! It is hard to believe it is already fall...We FINALLY have some fall weather! It is so nice to pull out long sleeves:)
Craig is full into "hunter mode." I still don't understand it, but I tolerate it anyway:) I am so busy with school! Having 115 6th graders isn't that bad until you realize you have sets of 115 papers to grade! It is a lot.
We are going to see the Cowboys in 2 WEEKS!!! They better get their act together before then...I have never seen them win in person:( I have been 3 times, and they have lost every time...Packers, Patriots, Eagles! If they lose to the Falcons, I may be banished from the stadium.
You better believe I am getting excited about New Moon...all the pictures and previews are amazing:) The sountrack comes out on October 20th, so hopefully that can hold me over until the movie. I have a poster and countdown up at school...for the kids.

  3. Callie's Halloween clothes are adorable!!! I love her "candy corn" pants. I am so glad that you caught her before she did a flip out of her chair. I will be there soon--can't wait!!!! The Cowboys are so hard to watch this year. Today, I played like I wasn't paying attention to the game (and didn't care) and they finally pulled it out in OT. Wheeeee!!!!!
    Love, GiGi
