10 months old

Rilyn is 10 months old today!  I can't believe that in 2 months I will be throwing a birthday party.  I know I say this every time but seriously time flies. 

At 10 months old.....

Rilyn eats 3 meals a day plus snacks.  This kid just loves food and will eat anything except Avocado.  She won't even touch the stuff!  Her favorite food is probably sweet potatoes (prepared anyway) and yogurt.  She drinks water from a sippy cup and straw cup.  She is nursing less about 5 - 8 times a day just depending on her mood.  She does have 5 teeth now (3 on the bottom and 2 on the top ).  The two on the top are on the sides not the middle so she actually has fangs.

Rilyn goes to sleep very easily. We just put her in her crib and give her a lovey.  She goes to bed between 6:30 and 7:00.  Rilyn wakes up between 3:30 and 4:30 to eat and then again between 5 and 6 in which case she is up for the day.  She naps a little different for all her "caregivers."  At home, she naps twice a day usually around 10 and 3 for anywhere between 45 minutes and 2 hours. 

Rilyn is all about playing right now and her favorite game is "go up stairs, mommy or daddy chases me" repeat.  She likes toys but is not that in love with them.  Instead climbing and playing with the dogs are a lot more fun.  She just started trying to go down the steps on her belly.  She closes doors and loves her loveys (those little blanket animals).

She is just a really fun girl and we LOVE spending time with her.

  2. Maybe her lovey will help her sleep longer at my house? Just a thought. Have you been sending those over? If so, I'm so sorry, I haven't even given it to her once!
