10mths And Full of Life



With crawling mastered you quickly turn your attention the next gross motor skill of standing, building your leg strength and furniture walking. You tried crawling on your hands and feet once or twice but you mustn’t have found it practical or elegant enough to continue with. Instead you practised pulling yourself up although it was a few before you mastered letting yourself down. I would often find you crying in frustration as you found yourself stuck standing looking down at a toy that you couldn’t get down to. And within a few weeks you were ready for furniture walking and with a lack of suitable furniture for you to walk around with you found that pushing the bean bag around was the perfect height and speed.

 














 



Other 2 teeth this month which has lead to issues with you biting me. 3 times at the morning feed was enough for me to be thankful that I was glad that I had started weening you and for the rest of the day you had the bottle. And when you bit me again that night I was close to closing up shop however I just wasn’t ready to let go. With you being my last I keep holding on to you just a little longer than I did with your brother. I’m sorry but I think this might be an ongoing problem for now and forever.

Your adding more sounds to your vocabulary and no longer do you only shriek. You start to add gooing sounds and softer sounding noises. With that you also found your tong and love to poke it out, move it from side to side and try to grab and hold it. We have yet to notice any sound that you say consistently that could mean something but we can defiantly tell when you have seen something that your excited about as you shriek in delight and start crawling toward what has excited you or if you’re in your highchair you move around excitingly and stare.  We turned your car seat around this month and with that there are times were you don’t stop babbling away, clearly you love being able to see everything.





















You haven’t been one to sit still while we change/dress you let alone any other time. Unlike your brother you don’t even lie still when I sing to you (okay maybe a few seconds while you give me a smile). The song that you smile the most at and lay still longest for is
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
Sammy brought a motor car.
Push the button pull the choke.
Off she goes in a cloud of smoke.
Like most babies you love music; you will stop, turn your attention to music you hear and start to bounce away. Sometimes you even raise the arms at the same time which almost looks like you could be in a mosh pit or at a rave. 

Below are some things we got up to this month.
• 39 weeks – started to goo rather than shriek all the time, starting eating small pieces of food including roast chicken. You also started tugging at my skirts/pants when you want hugs or/and milk
• 40 weeks – Pulling up onto legs but cant’ get down. Found your tong
• 42 weeks – Adding more sounds to voice, using bean bag to walk around, turned car set around
• 42.5 weeks – Started weaning and 5th tooth cut through.
• 43 weeks – 6th tooth cut through



Happy 10mth Noisy Girl
