10 months!

Charlie and Adella turned 10 months on November 28th.   We headed to the park for a little photo shoot - I wanted to do some editing on a few of these, however I'm not going to get to it anytime soon, so I'm just gonna get them on here straight out of the camera.

I started with Charlie, he wasn't too thrilled.  But this little lady thought it was hilarious!

At 10 months Charlie is a WALKER!  Crazy crazy!  He took his first few steps just days before 10 months (now a few weeks later he is on a roll!)   He had two teeth at 10 month (now he has two more up top that are popping through).   He is still an AWESOME sleeper and napper.  He does get rather angry after waking up from his afternoon nap but is usually better after he gets his bottle.  He is becoming a better eater, though still pickier than Adella.  He really likes carbs, like pancakes, rice, cereal puffs but also really likes Yogurt and cheese.   He is very ticklish and we love hearing him laugh!   He continues to grow like crazy, we had to take them in for shots a few days after they hit 10 months and he was up to 18 lbs 13 oz (he was 18 lbs at 9 months).

Adella at 10 months still had no teeth!  (She got one about a week later and another is about to pop through).   She still loves to eat and puts ANYTHING in her mouth (pretty sure she is chewing on grass in the picture above).  She will eat just about anything we give her, even if she acts like she doesn't like it!  It's hard to say what her favorite is because she just loves food so much!   She has become a MUCH better napper, but is still not doing so great at night.  We aren't sure if its night terrors, teething, or something else but she wakes up nearly every night - often she is just crying in her sleep but eventually it wakes her up fully and she won't get calmed down until we pick her up.   She isn't growing as fast as Charlie; she was 17 lbs 8 0z at her appointment a couple days after hitting 10 months - she was 17 lbs 2 oz at her 9 month checkup.  She eats food really well but sometimes won't drink much of her bottle.  She hasn't started walking but has a few funny new things she does.  She likes to roll her ankles when she is sitting in chairs, carseats or stroller - I think it's pretty cute!  She also has this funny knee walk thing.   She'll kneel and then move her knees instead of getting down and crawling with her hands too.  I'm not sure why she does it because she can't go far!   She never ceases to makes us laugh!

These two have started playing more and interacting more together and it's really fun to watch!   We sure are lucky!
