Claire - (A little over) 10 Months Old

It's hard to believe that 10 months has come and gone and that 2012 is almost over.  It's been a wild, busy, emotional, challenging, joyful (and probably any other adjective you could come up with) year.  

But through it all, I find joy in the little things, like our monthly Owl picture.


Claire is so full of energy and keeps us BUSY.  We think back to Cason a lot, he was so chill, sat in one spot, even when he learned to crawl he wasn't as wild as Claire.  She crawls on/over anything she can and is fast, fast, fast.  Here are the highlights
  • Says "mamamama", "dadadadada", "nanananana", "bababababa" and a lot
  • Is LOUD... she lets you know with loud screams when she wants something or is mad at something (likely Cason taking her toys or not feeding her fast enough)
  • Crawls all over the place and loves to climb on things
  • Eating mostly table food -- shredded chicken, ground beef, beans, peas, carrots, potatoes, peaches, cheerios, crackers are the staples
  • Starting to drink from a straw -- she wasnt a big fan of the true sippy cup so we just tried the straw cup instead.  She figured it out really fast and now is trying to figure out how to not get too much milk (she spits a lot out).
  • Starting to drink a little whole milk in preparation for the formula and bottles exit from our kitchen on or before Feb 9th!!!!
  • Loves her mamma .. I can't say I really mind this but she is for sure a Mamma's girl.  She will reach for me when most anyone is holding her.  She will go to other people and doesn't cry for me, but when she see's me, she wants me to hold her.  She stays right at my feet in the kitchen... I can't wait for her to get a little bigger and join in the fun!
I pulled out some of Cason's Christmas PJ's to see if they fit Claire.  She's a little bigger than he was at Christmas (8 months vs 10 months) but they still fit well enough!



And the rest of the photo shoot --  taken with my phone because I kept forgetting to take the big camera upstairs.  Thank God for the iPhone!!!



Of course, this is what most of the photo shoot looked like... always on the move.
