10 Months

Our baby has hit double digits!!

I know, not really. But look how big she is getting!! One huge change this month is her eyes! They are definitely green now!!
Sadie is growing and changing so fast. She is still very smiley. She is pretty happy wherever we go, though she is getting less content with being held or contained and more anxious to be on the move exploring for herself.  She still thinks that her brother and sister hung the moon and wants to be into everything they are doing. Luckily they are amazing with her and rarely get frustrated when she knocks over their trains or drools all over their artwork.

She is a very good eater, preferring to feed herself. She is also a little silly at times. Hang loose!!
She has started throwing little tantrums when she doesn't get something she wants, or gets something taken away.  When you ask her a question, she will grunt like she is trying to answer you.

We took her for her 9 month well check last week (yes, we are running a little behind) and Dr Patterson was amazed by her.  He said her communication and reasoning was remarkable for her age, already hitting some 14 month milestones (Go Sadie!). She weighed in at 20 lbs (50th percentile) and 30 inches long (above the 97th percentile)

She is not quite walking yet, though, as I was taking pictures tonight, she acted like she was going to!!
I got her some shoes today, so whenever she is ready, so are we....well, at least in the footwear department.

You continue to amaze us and we love every second of you Sadie!!
