10 months!

Double digits, folks! I can't believe it's already been a whole month since I did a monthly update for Hadley.

• 20 lbs (not sure the % as we took Hadley for a sick visit yesterday....had a little conjunctivitis yesterday and had to go to the doctor)
• FINALLY said MAMA just about an hour ago in the bath tub!!! Couldn't get her to say it again, but Brandon witnessed it!  She still says Da-da-da about 1,000 times a day.  
• Crawls everywhere now! We still have not baby-proofed yet.  What is wrong with us?!  
• The best little eater I know.  You name it, Hadley loves it.  She loves fruit!  She's had peaches, cantaloupe, grapes, pears, blueberries, strawberries, bananas, watermelon, mandarin oranges, plums, apples, mangos, and maybe more.  Also loves deli meat, cheese (thank goodness for Kraft crumbles!), cheerios, peas, carrots, zuchinni, squash, couscous, tomatoes, avacados, sweet potatoes, yogurt, applesauce, pasta, green beans, and the list goes on.  I make her dishes with meat - I need to blog about this great book I am using for recipes.  It's full of healthy recipes and Hadley loves everything I've tried so far.
• Eating 3 meals a day + a night time bottle. She is more interested in solids these days than her bottle.  
• Still in 6-9 month clothes and a few 9-12 month clothes.
• Has about 5 teeth!  I think a couple more on the way.  She has been such a champ with the whole teething process.
• Smart!  Love watching her figure out her toys.  She loves opening and closing things (the door on the little fisher-price mailbox and the lid on the fisher-price laugh and learn table).
• Has ticklish feet and tummy. She giggles when I tickle her....it's the sweetest sound.
• Pulling up on the couch, other furniture pieces, toys, the tub, etc.  She can get to a standing position pretty quickly!
• Now takes her baths in the big bath tub and not her infant tub. I think she is loving all the extra room!  
• Sleeps from around 7:30p to 6:30a. Pleeeeease sleep till 7 one day soon :)
• Babbles when she wakes up in the morning. I love watching her on the monitor while she lays in bed and talks in the morning. Sometimes she looks directly in the camera, and talks, like she knows I am watching!
• Loves daycare and her sweet teachers!  We are so blessed to have such wonderful ladies caring for her while we are at work. One of her teachers, Ms. Erin, knew me when I was a little girl!
• Such a happy baby and hardly ever cries. Only when she is tired is she really fussy.
• A talker!  I promise me and Hadley have 'conversations.' I will say something to her, and she replies (aka, jibber-jabbers back to me).  Her teachers have told me the same thing.  So cute!
• Likes sitting in the highchair at restaurants and the shopping carts at the grocery store these days!
