Our Baby Girl Turns 10 Months Old...

So, here is my one post for the month! :) Sorry...I'm not doing very well with posting, but with two kids and school, it's hard! Enough excuses....yesterday, Sailer turned 10 months old! I simply cannot believe it! It goes by so much faster the second time around. Sailer is now a little over 18 pounds, and she is in the 50th percentile for head circumference, height, and weight, so I guess we can say that she is "average" in size. In fact, in the pics below, this is the gown that she came home from the hospital in! It's a NEWBORN size! It's crazy, but I'm glad that she is getting some more wear out of it....:)

Sailer is such a joy to have in our home....she is our "serious girl." She is clearly a thinker....though she has some silly moments. Overall, though, she saves those for us, and it's rare that anyone else sees her in her "silly mood." She has only TWO teeth..which is hard to believe b/c Noah had at least 5 at this age. She LOVES to eat, and is almost completely on solid foods! One thing that I'm enjoying so much is dressing her and fixing her hair! Hehe! It's amazing at how many bows this girl has at her tender age...:) I love playing with her little curls and smelling her after a warm bath....she melts me! She is truly a momma's girl...I love how she lights up when I enter a room! Noah never did this...he wasn't attached at all. He's extremely independent, so this is new to me. Sailer is my little sidekick...I cannot wait for all of the fun mommy/daughter times that we have ahead!

As far as physical stuff, she is standing on her own, but has NO interest in taking steps or cruising. What can I say? She is taking her sweet time, and that is perfectly fine with me. Noah started walking at 9 months, so I'm not rushing her at all.

Anyway, hope all of my blogger friends and family are doing well, and having a great start to 2009! We love you all! Enjoy! :)

Of course, Sailer's daddy took these pictures, which will be added to his latest portfolio!
