"SWEET CAROLINE! (doo, doo, doo) Good times never seemed so good!!"
I just LOVE you baby girl!! A few things about Caroline at 10 months:
- You have The Bluest, most beautiful eyes!
- The dark hair is slowly starting to fade ;o( A few people have actually asked me if I've colored your hair! NO! But I have had to give you 4 haircuts lil lady. Not including the countless bang trims. You have been blessed with a beautiful head of hair ever since you were born.
- You started crawling in your 9th month & you have the funniest crall I have ever seen! You manage to keep one leg forward in a sitting position & crawl with the other leg. It's too dificult to explain in words, but basically your one leg & both your arms do all the work. It's looks tiring & the one leg that stays in front gets so dry from rubbing on the ground as you crawl. You scoot in circles on your bum too & that is hillarious to watch.
- You suck both your thumbs and they're both so chapped and dry! I'm constantly putting lotion & lavender on them.
- You are so squishy & you have the softest skin. Someone told me today you were a "marshmallow baby". I love to hold & cuddle you & kiss your smooshy cheeks.
- Miss Independent! You refuse to be hand fed by mom & dad. You only prefer that we put the food in front of you on your tray... little stinker. You rub your food through your hair & pretty much get it EVERYWHERE. I'm sorry to tell you that you have that same funny itch in your ears that your Dad gets whenever he eats & you rub your ears the same way Daddy does which cracks us up everytime!
- You eat a ton... sometimes to the point of throwing up so we have to manage what you eat. But most of the time you let us know you're done by clamping your mouth shut & turning up your head.
- You Love Preston. When he gets down on the ground with you, you wrestle him & give him big open mouth kisses. He takes All your toys away from you & puts them up high so you can't reach them but you still love him ;o) You Love Mommy. Everytime I leave the room you cry. And if you can, you follow me from room-to-room. You love Daddy too! You always greet him with Big smiles when he comes home from work & they melt his heart.
- You clap your hands & open your mouth real big! It's the cutest thing. Anytime we say "yay" you start clapping.
- You Growl A lot! And grunt and make other noises that don't sound like they should be coming from a little lady. You're the most "talkative" in the car & you make a lot of other strange noises that are really funny to listen to. Your favorite thing to say is "DA DA" and you growl as you say it! We repeat you & you repeat us as well ...again and again ;o)
- You also say "Mom" & "Ma Ma" You usually say this when your hungry. I am still nursing you!! But I'm looking forward to being done in a couple months.
- You stick out your tongue all the time and make funny noises with it. You're such a funny little thing. So playful & full of so much personality.
- You're bottom two teeth are barely starting to come up but haven't broke through yet... Any day now!
- So far we've given you the nick-name "Care Bear" And Daddy has given you the Most annoying nickname of all... it's hardly a nickname, more like a sound effect but would be spelt something like this, "Zaboozee".
- Every bit of you is teeny-tiny. From your cute botton nose to your round chubby toes. You're a petite little munchkin & we love it!
- You love to be sung to. Here's one we sing often:
"Makin' up a song about Caroline. She's a peach, she's a doll, she's a pall of mine! She's as cute as a button in the eyes of everyone who ever laid their eyes on Car-ol-ine!" -From the movie Coraline
We Love you Care Bear!!
(I will post Preston's update next week since the last post was all about his potty training)
