10 months!

I made mommy work for these pictures! Sitting still is a thing of the past!
Don't forget to check out the collection at the bottom of my blog to see how much I've grown!
I can push up into sitting posistion now. Each time I do it, I celebrate with many claps!


Look out everyone... I'm scooting! I can really move and get around!

I love to clap!
If I hear someone say, "yay" or "hooray", I will clap. I also like to clap when I hear a certain song from my music class! Clapping makes me excited and happy!

Silly faces make my parents laugh and smile!

I love books! I have many favorite stories...this book I'm holding is one that I like to read, suck and study. My daddy reads me some great stories at night and mom has been reading some stories with great pictures!

Another trick I have is kissing! I love to kiss/suck on mommy's face! Her reaction makes me do this over and over again. Sometimes if I hear, "kisses" I will give one but most of the time I choose not to. :)

I've advanced to my big girl seat, which means I get to sit at the table with everyone else. I also started eating solid foods. My favorite is chicken!


I explore all day long...even when I'm suppose to be taking naps! You wouldn't believe it, but each time I discover something new to touch, chase or put in my mouth!


I love to play peek-a-boo!
We play this game when mommy is taking pictures of me. It helps me to laugh!

Olivia is 10 months old! This is a bitter sweet moment for me because I'm not ready for my baby to get any bigger, but each day only gets better (and winter is almost over)! I have to say that this last month has been filled with many changes and excitment!!
Her little personality is unfolding...sweet, goofy, demanding and loud!

Vacation to Vail

I'm ready for the mountains!
Vail received over 24 inches of snow in less than 36 hours! The snow was up to our knees...great skiing conditions for the advanced skier!

I loved Vail Village! Every time we would walk outside, my tongue would instantly try to catch snowflakes! After the big storm, Mom tried getting a picture of me in a snow pile, but it was so deep that I fell in!

I adjusted to the mountain life of eating, resting, playing and then eating again! Maybe next time I'll try skiing, but I think for now catching snowflakes is enough of an extreme sport for me!

Look out everyone...I'm beginning to scoot! Our condo had lots of interesting spaces to investigate, and with the help of Momo I'm beginning to figure out how to get places!

We had a great vacation! My favorite part was spending time with my family! Everyone said I was the best baby and a great traveler!
