10 Months!

Leah's 10 months today!  Her 1st birthday is quickly approaching, and I'm in full birthday planning mode.  Matt and I are in shock that we're closer to having a toddler rather than a baby.  Here are some updates:

• Size 3 diapers
• Army crawls everywhere
• Climbs up stairs
• Pulls herself to stand
• Claps her hands and waves 
• Developing more separation anxiety.  She used to be really good when I dropped her off at day care or the nursery at church, but now she will cling onto me and cry when I give her to someone else.  When we're at home she'll play by herself, but every few minutes will look around to make sure I'm there.  If she can't see me, she'll cry - even if daddy is around. Hopefully, this doesn't last too long!

Leah: Another month has flown by. You're talking/babbling so much these days, and I always wonder what's going on inside your head.  I look forward to the day we can understand what you're saying. Your favorite person is mommy, and I love that so much {even though daddy's a little jealous}.  I cherish every hug, grab, and cling because I know one day you will want your independence.  I love it when you follow me around the house or grab my hand so that you can rest your head on it.  Thank you for being such a sweet and happy baby.  I pray everyday that God gives me the wisdom to raise you well in this crazy world.  Happy 10 months baby!  xoxo
