10 Months!

I honestly can't believe another month has come and gone and man did Ky learn A LOT!! She...

• Gives High 5's. Well, they're more like low fives, but she loves doing it!
• Can click her tongue and has gotten the noise really loud.
• Pulls herself up to anything and everything, even in the slippery bath tub. She's learned how to get down on her own so I don't have to save her when she gets stuck in her crib anymore.
• Says "Mama", "Dada", "Oughto", "Yay", and "Hi". When she drops something she says "oughto", whenever someone says "yay" she says it too and claps, and when she's playing with the phone or waving she says "hi". She even said "bye" for the first time today waving so there's another one!
• Loves cats, especially Sophie. Ky will chase her all around and play with her tail. Sophie is really good and just lets her do it.
• Sucks her thumb and plays with Mommy's hair all the time now. I'm pretty sure it's her comfort thing. I absolutely love it, it is so sweet!
• Loves to bite Daddy's nose when they play. I'm sure those little teeth are pretty sharp, but he's a tough guy and just keeps letting her do it.
• Has 2 teeth, but is going to add the top two middle to her collection any day. Poor Bug, these two are no fun and she's not feeling too good, but she's a trooper!
• Gives big kisses when Ben or I give her cheek butterfly kisses. Another incredibly sweet thing I just can't get enough of!
• Loves eating finger foods. She says "MMMMMmmmmm" the WHOLE time she's eating too. Must be pretty good!
• Loves to watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and dances when they do the Hot Dog Dance at the end.
• says "aaawwwww" (like an Indian) whenever someone taps their hand over her mouth and then laughs at how silly she is.

Ben and I were watching some of the videos we have on our video camera tonight and couldn't believe how much she has changed and grown in the past 10 months. I found myself getting sad when I saw her so little and brand new. I'm not sure why, maybe because my little girl is growing so fast and needs me less and less each day. It's hard to see her doing more and more things on her own, but then I realized that she is growing and learning exactly how she is supposed to and I get to show her how to keep learning everyday. I love getting to play with her and show her new things. I love how her face lights up when she sees something new and exciting. I love when she reaches for me and I get to just hold her while she lays her head on my shoulder sucking her thumb and plays with my hair. She makes me so happy and I am so excited to get to continue watching her, helping her along the way, and being her Mommy.
