Already 10 Months Old!

Well, our little Megan is growing so fast. Do I say that every month? She is moving quicker and becoming more comfortable on her feet. She just learned how to walk behind her push walker and thinks she is such a big girl. She pulls herself up on everything, tables, legs, chairs, anything she can. Everything is new to her. It's so fun watching her see things for the first time. Along with all of her moving though, she has decided that sleeping is not for her and she would rather be crawling, playing, doing something than be in her crib in a dark room. We started having to get up 3-4 times a night with her for awhile. It was getting pretty frustrating especially to me when I had late nights at work. I think we're getting back on track though. She's starting to take longer naps in the day and sleeping through the night again. Thank goodness!

It seems she's changing every day too. She has 4 teeth now, two on top and two on bottom. Her hair is growing in thicker and curlier. We can tell that it really is going to be blonde like we've been hoping. Her eyes seem to be a good mix of Josh's and mine. We really couldn't have asked for a more beautiful little girl.

In the pictures below she is standing at our front door looking out at her Daddy doing some yard work.



It's pickle time again! They really quiet her down when she is grumpy or I need a little extra time to finish cleaning the kitchen!


Megan is definitely a water baby. Unfortunately now she is trying to stand up and move all over the tub. Just last night she slipped at least 3 times, with me sitting right there even. She takes it is stride though, doesn't cry and just does it all over again. I think showers with mom and dad are going to be her best friend before long.

"Mohawk Megan"

Little Ham!

Jay and Alia, Campbell and Henley all came over for dinner a few weeks ago. Megan and Henley are only about 5 weeks apart. I think they had fun playing together except when Megan tries to beat him up. She doesn't know her own strength!

Those chubby little legs get a work out now with all of her moving and standing.

Megan and I went to the Street of Dreams in Washington with Grandpa and Grandma. Megan wanted to place her order with Daddy to make her a play house like this one.

And there is the princess!


So in the next couple of months we are going to try and plan this big girl's FIRST birthday party. She's got lots of friends and family who are going to want to share in the excitement with her (us)! Just can't believe it!!!
