Ainsley - 10 months

Ainsley is 10 months old and has such a little personality now J.  She has figured out how to throw a fit and fake cry if she can’t have what she wants and makes the funniest expressions.  She is also a little sweetheart and gives lots of hugs and wet slobbery kisses where she grabs your face and makes sure she kisses you on the lips.  Anytime her brothers are upset she always crawls over to them and gives them a hug/kiss which is just adorable and cheers them right up.

She is definitely on the move and pulls up and cruises around everything.  She’s also starting to get a little braver and has stood on her own for a few seconds before realizing she’s not holding onto anything.  She loves the stairs and can crawl up one or two but then tries to turn around and fall so we typically grab her quick when she gets to them which she has figured out so now she has a little game where she’ll crawl over there and then look at you like are you going to come get me, look what I’m doing stinker face.

We’ve come a long way with food over the past month.  She went from hating all foods with texture to now being more adventurous.  I’ve found that the trick is to just let her feed herself and she’s way more willing to try new things.  So far she really loves oranges and has tried some veggies, beans, noodles and banana. She also loves MumMum crackers and is eating the chunkier baby food but wants nothing to do with those puffs that most babies love.  She also loves drinking water out of her sippy cup and always tries to steal her brothers if they leave them lying around.

Ainsley loves being outside in the stroller or swing.  I’m looking forward to finally getting some warm spring weather so she can explore the outdoors a little more.  Still no teeth and still not saying mama but lots and lots of babbling and she loves to blow raspberries.  She does it all the time and even crawls up and blows them on you which her brothers think is hilarious.  She's also recently figured out how to click her tongue and loves dancing and swaying to music.
