10 months

Just a little late - we spent last week at the beach, having a grand time.

Now, Aggie has been out of my uterus longer than she was in it.  I keep searching for the meaning in this, but can't find it.

The romance continues.  Hugging is a new favorite activity.  She sometimes stops playing to give her papa and I hugs.  They are the best things in the whole wide world.  Except when she sneaks in a bite.  Or pinches my neck.

She's also started singing - it is so dang cute.  Sometimes she sings along with a tune, sometimes she just sings.

This morning she did the cutest thing (technically it should be saved for the 11 month update, but I don't want to forget it) - she was pushing her train car around and going "grrrr...grrrr."  We interpreted that as making car sounds.  How freaking adorable can you get?

And she had her first tastes of chocolate - cake and cupcake.  And she luuuvvved it.  Takes after her mama.

Still no crawling.  Still no pulling herself up.  I'm taking it as a kindness.  Our friends visited with their 10 month old, who can crawl and pull herself up and walk along furniture - whoa.  Aggie, though, was not impressed.

We did have a couple of rough nights thanks to teething.  One night, she cried for 45 min. straight.  Every time I touched her, she'd just scream louder.  Finally, I put her in her crib and walked away.  Five minutes later, she was sound asleep.  Poor thing.  And poor me too - it was hard seeing her in so much discomfort and not being able to do a damn thing.
