Arielle at 10 months

Some baby...

...is 10/12, no make that 5/6 of a year old. That's 10 months to you and me!

...smiles every chance she gets.

...has started eating more table food like cut up fruit, soft veggies & pasta.

...still has 6 teeth even though I swear she's been working on 2 more for over a month!

...sucks her thumb and hold her ear when she is hungry or tired.

...cuddles with me and is content to just sit on my lap for long periods of time.

...is starting to become a mama's girl, screeching when I leave the room.

...has started to make the funniest faces, sometimes even on cue.

...is saying mama more and more, but never on cue.

...has just started clapping

...is really good at cruising along the furniture, but not showing any signs of walking on her own.

...can stand for a few seconds at a time before falling on her bum.

...is a tough cookie, considering the rough and tumble way her brother handles her.

...is the master finder of all things gross and puts them right into her mouth.

...loves to babble and repeat sounds that we make.

...just might have reddish hair after all; only time will tell.
