Noelle: 10 Months...

Dear Noelle,

 It amazes me how every four weeks you seem to come leaps and bounds on what you are able to accomplish. We have had such a slow start with you from the beginning when it comes to food and how you have progressed but finally in the last couple of weeks you are starting to get the hang of it. Since I'm a breastfeeding mama you had a heck of a time learning to use a bottle and in fact it wasn't until almost month 6 where you finally accepted the whole bottle thing. Then at 6 months as you progressed to solids you really wanted nothing to do with purees and after a couple of months now you will gobble them up. Lately we have been working with you on eating small bites of food such as toast fruit, veggies and noodles but you all you seem to want is the purees, but in the last week or so you finally have started eating more and more solids which is great!

 As far as your ability to move you are EVERYWHERE! You can crawl so fast, pull up on anything, climb on boxes, and you have just started to pull up and stand by yourself without holding on! It wont be long till your running on your own two feet! I really cant believe we only have 2 months left until your FIRST birthday. I have said it before and will say it again you have been such a JOY in our lives and we don't know what we would do without you!
