10 Month Bloopers

It is nearly impossible to get a clear picture of me. I am always moving and practicing my skills. During this shoot I was fascinated with the camera and wanted to play with it badly. I wanted to crawl, play with toys, pull the sticker off of my shirt, stand, and clap ;)

10 Month Stats

* I am 22 lbs on my parents scale!
* I wear size 4 diapers, and 12-18 month clothes.

* I crawl EVERYWHERE and am into EVERYTHING.
* I stand by myself.
* I am just starting to take steps when I have something to hold onto.
* I lift myself up to my knees and up to one foot.
* I love to clap and click my tongue. Especially if you sing, "If your happy and you know it clap your hands!"
* I rock and dance to music.
* I talk all the time.....lalalalalalala, dad and daddadadadad, mamamamamamam, and bababababba. I act like I am having conversations with lots of expression while waving my hands.
* I love to help my mom with the chores. I cook (play with measuring cups) and fold laundry (play peekaboo with the towels).

* Bath time is still the best time of the day. I like it best when dad gives me the bath, and then mom gives me my bottle.

River's Registry Link

For those who have asked what we need for baby River we have created a little registry. I posted the link for it on the right side of the blog. He does not need a lot really, just the things that we already got rid of from when Laken was a little newborn, a few boy items to throw in the mix, and gear that is needed to accommodate 2 babies. We already have plenty of clothes for him up to 6 months;) Chase and I, and several other family members already went shopping last week! Blankets are also good since all of Laken's are pink. We are thinking this time that we will wait to set up his nursery until he graduates out of his bassinet and we know more about his personality;)

Wordless Wednesday

Rainy's 28th Birthday

Today was my 28th birthday. Last night Chase brought home some flowers and a cake! We were so excited to try the cake and it was.....well lets just say nasty so we threw it out! Haha! Tonight we tried to redeem ourselves and go on a food crawl by first going to an indian restaurant and then out to gelato. We pulled into the indian restaurant and the door had a sign that said, "Now closed on Tuesday." Aaaah so we improvised and drove to the gelato spot that also happened to have wood fired pizza. It was amazing, and Laken had fun eating outside in the sunshine. And BONUS their was an adorable cupcake shop across the street! Great day!

It's the smallest things......

Laken found a door stopper and I think she may be playing with it for hours. When she found it she laughed over and over. Now she just can't stop! It's fun to see all of the little things again through her eyes ;)

Shreiking for Shrek

Movie night. We watched a little Shrek 2 before bedtime and I caught this picture. Laken thought that Donkey was pretty funny, she shrieked with laughter when he spoke! She is fascinated by remotes.....and is finding buttons that Daddy didn't even know were there!
