10 months later . . .

Ellie turned 10 months old yesterday!

You may remember, I had the goal of taking photos of Ellie with her pink pig every month. Yeah, right.

But here is a glance back at her first photo shoot.

And look at her today. What a big girl!

Here is a little 10 month Ellie update:

- She now weighs about 18 pounds and is a little over 2 feet tall.

- She is still breastfed! 10 months and going strong.

- She loves to eat. She has never turned her nose up at ANY food, nope, not even the green stuff like kale, spinach and swiss chard.

- She hasn't crawled. She's always hated laying on her tummy even though we did lots of 'tummy time' and she still hasn't figured out how to get her knees under her.

- She loves to walk! She walks all over the house holding onto furniture. Every time I walk by she grabs onto my pant leg to let me know she wants me to take both her hands and walk around and around and around the living room.

- She's never been sick. Not even a cold.

- She seems to have her daddy's love for thrills. We pretend we don't see then and then look at her and gasp. She thinks it's hilarious.

- She has 7 teeth. 4 on top and 3 on bottom and one more on the way.

- She is sleeping better now. Most nights she sleeps 4 hour stretches between feedings. And yes, that is an improvement.

- She is a very happy baby, especially, when you're doing exactly what she wants! :)
