Miss Natalie is 10 months old!
~Natalie is a very quick crawler! She pulls herself to standing on just about everything. She has also mastered cruising along furniture!
~Natalie has been through a series of ear infections. Starting at the end of January, she's had 3 nearly consecutive ear infections or double ear infections. After 2 rounds of Amoxicillin and 1 round of Augmentine, she seems have to beat it! Our fingers are crossed that she's in the clear for a while.
~Natalie is a chatty girl! She babbles often and is combining syllables. We commonly hear "Mama", "My-Ma-Ma" "Dada", "Aba-Aba", and "Gaga". She also says "Yeah", which she sometimes states after we ask her a question. She also signs "more" (clapping) and "all done" (waving both arms in the air).
~She enjoys navigating her environment and has a few favorite to-go's. She enjoys digging through a drawer in Mommy and Daddy's bathroom that stores travel size toothpastes, toothbrushes, etc. She also likes to look in bathtubs. She loves to investigate her siblings' toys and dirty laundry baskets. She often looks at us before reaching for items, such as items on the coffee table, as if to say "Can I have this?"
~Natalie is the proud owner of 6 teeth!
~She is such a love bug! She loves to crawl up on us for hugs, snuggles and kisses. She waves and blows kisses, especially when we say it's time for "Night night". She recently started going in for hugs when verbally asked. Natalie likes to snuggle her head on our shoulders and occasionally packs our backs while snuggling.
~She loves to dance! She immediately bounces up and down when she hears music!
~Natalie likes putting clothes, etc. over her head. We are thinking she may be trying to put them "on" or playing peek-a-boo.
~Natalie is full of smiles and giggles! She's such a happy girl!
