Milestones: She has gotten to be a speed crawler, she loves exploring but will generally crawl back to check that mommy or daddy is still where she left them. She will cruise along the furniture but if you take her hands to have her walk she will immediately sit down on the ground. She loves to mimic sounds and sometimes when you say "I Love you" it sounds like she says it back. She loves to babble still but doesn't say any new words just yet. She just learned how to shake her head no but I don't think she associates it with the word just yet.  She has two ways of dancing if she is sitting she will raise her hands up in the air and if she is standing she will kinda wiggle/ sway. She does a lot more self play which is wonderful for us. She celebrated her first Christmas and new years. She was such a fun age for opening presents but was in general more interested with the bows or paper than what was inside. She also took her first plane ride to AZ to visit all of my family. She actually did really well both directions. This last month, she seems to have really started changing from my little baby to a toddler which has been sad but exciting. This last week has been rough she had a pretty bad cold which turned into an ear infection and pink eye all while she is getting her first tooth. 

Eating: She still is nursing on demand. For about 3 weeks she had a sort of schedule where she would mostly nurse when she woke up and when she went to sleep but with being sick she has done alot of comfort nursing. Somedays she is really into solids and other days not so much. She LOVES puffs she will eat all favors and at all times. She also really likes cherrios.If I want her to stop fussying for a second I just give her a handful of puffs or cherrios. Since I haven't been working she hasn't really been taking any bottles. I dont pump anymore at home just whenever I am away from her or miss a feeding. 

Sleeping: The time change in AZ really mess us up. Her bedtime is now around 9 o'clock but it also means she doesn't typically get up until 830-9 in the morning. That is not in a row she still wakes up at minimum 2 times but mostly 3 or on a rough night 4 times to nurse. She sleeps in the pack and play and with us depending on the night. She mostly takes 2 naps but occasionally  she will take a very long afternoon nap only

Growing up sooo fast...

Happy 10 months baby!!!
