10 Months and a few weeks...

Well, people, it’s time for another update. We are at the 10 month, 3 week mark, although most of the e-mails I’ve been receiving concerning baby updates are telling me she’s 11 months old. Okay, sure she’s 45 weeks, but it was just August 15th about a week or so ago. Let me enjoy her 10 months, please.
Anyway, the progress: we have teeth! And when I say we have teeth, I mean we have teeth. Two at the top and two at the bottom. We’ve gone through two shredded nipples so far…well, one and a half. I don’t know if she’s completely destroyed her other one today, yet. She’s chewing on everything, which I understand. Her little gums are sore, and chewing probably helps sooth things. But mommy’s fingers are not chew toys. That hurts!
Oh, and she took a few steps. We’ve all experienced the walking thing. She walked to me, mom, dad, my brothers, my nieces and my sister in law. So we can all bask in her first-ness together. But she still has to realize that stepping on her feet will not help to propel her forward, without falling flat on her face. She’s getting there though, so I’m going to enjoy this moment, even though I’ve been warned that she will so start running. I’ll deal with it.
Other than that, looking forward to the birthday. Sure it’s less than two months away, but still I need to prepare for it. This is a huge milestone for us both! So that is all, for now. I am just so excited for my little Peanut!
