10 months!

Hi B,

You are 10 months old already! Wow, time flies! You are so much fun at this age! I have lots of things to tell you that you can do now.

1. First, you still don't sleep well! Why??? You got up 7 times last night!!!!! Some nights you only get up once, but usually 2 - 4. I don't know why, but we are going to have you cry it out again soon and get rid of your binky, so that might help. I hope so.

2. You can understand so many words now: mommy, daddy, water, truck, fan, point, bath, drink, and probably lots more that I can't think of right now. I will ask you questions like, "where is daddy?" and you will look around until you find him then smile.

3. You say: momma, dadda, yeah and once you said no. You also sometimes say bah when I ask if you want a bath, so I think that is what you mean.

4. You get so excited for baths, it is unbelievable. After I start putting water in, you crawl over to the tub and try climbing in, clothes and all! When we take you into the other room to get you undressed you cry until we bring you back. You also always cry when I get you out, even if you have been in there for 20 minutes.

5. You learned to clap your hands a few days ago.

6. You just started standing up for about 5 seconds at a time. You will be walking in no time.

7. You point at things you want or directions you want to go. Or if I ask you where something is, you point to it when you find it.

I love you! You are getting so big!

Love,

Mom
