10 Months Old!

Amelia is 10 months old today!!

Wow, time is passing way too quickly. My little infant will be a toddler soon. I definitely see why there isn't a big percentage of single-child households in the world.... they get out of that tiny baby stage and everything is fun, but you start missing being able to hold them close and watch them learn those early developmental things.

Amelia has never been a cuddly baby though. Last night, at her bedtime feeding, she fell fast asleep. I was watching Jeopardy and was really interested in the category they were working on, so I stood there holding my sleeping child. It was so nice. That's a pretty rare thing for us.

She's wearing scooter dress #2 today! Below today's pics you'll see what I mean. Her very first dress was a smaller version of this cute little dress.

Happy Birthday!!

This morning, I caught a wonderful moment. Chris woke up rather grumpy and was really struggling this morning. After I said goodbye to them, I went to go take a shower. I peeked out the side window to see him put her car seat in the car. He shut the door and started making faces at her, to get her to smile at him. Not getting enough of her, he opened the door and sat in the back with her. I could see him chatting with her and kissing her. When he got back out, his eyes looked a little misty and mine definitely were, too. That little girl will always know that her daddy loves her. And a cute face from her can definitely bring up his day a little, too.

It is a wonder how babies can grow so fast! I remember when Amelia was too little for all of her clothes ... particularly the 1st scooter dress! She is so beautiful. Thanks for the pics! Love, Gma R
