10 months old

Not much "baby" about our baby anymore!  She's getting into everything! Still not doing the traditional hand and knee crawling but she army crawls pretty fast! Just this week she figured out how to go from laying on her belly to pushing up and sitting on her butt. Now she does it all the time!  She is working on pulling herself up to standing... she can get to her knees in her crib and likes to bounce. Her favorite word is Dada. I ask her to say Mama all the time and all she says is Dada. She will say Mama when she's crying, it sort of sounds like she's begging me, "Mooomma!".  Hasn't cut any new teeth this month but has been able to handle a lot more cut up food. She LOVES food and she loves to feed herself. Still hasn't refused anything we've given her. Ashlyn is really good at making sure Kaelyn doesn't get into anything she's not supposed to. She says "no, no Kaelyn" many times during the day. Kaelyn had a thing for my plants recently and she tasted dirt and didn't seem to mind at all!  She's also changed her mind about our dog Gauge. She wasn't a big fan of him at first but now she loves seeing him and trying to pet him. She is starting to wave bye-bye. She also has a grunt/ruff sound she likes to make and she loves it when you say it back to her. It's almost like a little conversation :)

I couldn't get her to lay back in her seat for her picture this month... she just wanted to sit up like the big girl she is!

Ashlyn's 1st day of preschool

She's attending Little Lamb's Preschool at the St. Peter Evangelical Lutheran Church. She goes Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8-11am. There are 5 boys and 5 girls in her class and her teacher is Mrs. Voigt.

 She woke up so excited to go to preschool this morning. She couldn't wait to put on her backpack! She even made sure that we had her folder inside it like she's supposed to :)



Going down to her room. She knew exactly which hook was hers and she hung up her backpack and jacket and went to play with the kids. She gave me a big smile and wave when I said goodbye. Not scared at all!

Her friend Vivian is in her class and she knew a few other kids already too.


Just like I thought it would happen, she cried when I picked her up because she didn't want to stop playing with her friends! Good thing she gets to go back twice a week!

Ring Pop

We discovered a few weeks ago that Kaelyn really likes suckers. She never gets her own but Ashlyn is always happy to share with her little sister.
