Ten Months - Scarlett

Scarlett just keeps getting cuter and cuter. Her personality is really starting to shine through and she is hilarious. 

A few things about Scarlett at 10 months:

- Nurses about 4 times a day and eats lots of solid foods. Likes everything we have given her except humus and avocados. Loves peas, applesauce and any sort of bread.

- Still no teeth, but I have a feeling they will be popping up soon. 

- Wont keep bows or headbands on her head. 

- Sleeps pretty well during the night, except when she is sick. Naps twice a day.

- Wears mostly 3-6 months size clothes. My guess is that she weighs about 14 lbs.

- Discovered her tongue and loves to stick it in and out like a lizard. 

- Starting to pull herself up on things. Loves to climb all over is on the floor. 

- Smiles, laughs and claps all the time. 

- Plays well by herself as long as there are enough toys to entertain her.

- Has a very good imagination and we love to hear her play with her dolls.

- Is showing an interest in using the potty and we hope to start potty training this week.

She told me it is a shark.

Leonard Family Fun

Right after we got back from our trip to San Diego, my family started coming into town. We were still missing two siblings, but it was fun to have all nine grand kids together for the first time.
