10 Month Update




10 MONTHS


Head, Height, Weight: Her head is about 16 inches, height is about 30 inches and her weight is 24 pounds and some change. My big girl is in the 90 percentile for all category's! She's giant! :)

Clothes: She fits good in 18 months so that's what we mainly have her in. She owns a few 24 month pieces and those fit with some extra room.

Eating: This girl loves food (Can you tell?) and she will give anything a try! I was at work and David sent me this picture and I melted! She is such a fun baby! Baby Led Weaning has been a blast and I'm so glad I never wasted my time "making" baby food. 

Sleeping: My perfect sleeper is nowhere to be found these days! Since turning 9 months, it seems she can't go a whole night without waking up once. When I hear her, I grab her and bring her to bed with us and I nurse her back to sleep. My goal was to put her back in her crib when she was done but 99% of the time, I fall back to sleep too! After a couple weeks, David told me to leave her in bed with us and I'm Ok with that. If I don't fall back to sleep then I usually put her back in her crib otherwise she stays with us. 

Diapering: Still in Pamper's with zero rashes so far!

Adventures: 
We have done a zoo trip with mommy friends and lots of walks in the evening with daddy!

Playtime: Gracelyn loves exploring around! She is never content in just one spot and loves getting into just about everything! She likes blocks and standing up on furniture to see what she can get into. 

Likes: She loves her baby friends and getting into other people's business. We joke that she is so nosy! She will go out of her way to see what you are doing or take whatever you have. 

Milestones: TEETH! She now has 2 precious pearly whites on her bottom jaw and I absolutely love them! She hasn't bit me-- yet! So I'm waiting to see when her next ones show up. She has learned how to climb the stairs at Mimi and Papa's house and she stands by herself now (hasn't taken steps yet). I just cannot believe how fast this little girl is growing! We love her so much and can't wait to see what she does next.

The meaning of Gracelyn Elida.

When you chose your child’s name, did it have a meaning or did you pick it just because you liked it?             When David and I were talking about names, we were lost! Neither of us knew where to start nor had any picked out before. I always liked the name Christopher. It’s my dad’s name, my brother’s name, my nephew’s middle name and it’s also David’s middle name. It’s a family name and I knew I would pass this name to my child, had it been a boy. We also loved the name Daniel. It’s a strong name for a baby boy, young guy, and an older man. Can you picture a sweet baby named Bill or Ted? Maybe you can, but I sure can’t! Daniel is also a strong biblical character. He was a man of faith! He endured being in the lion’s den and was not harmed because he was brave and faithful.  The name Christopher has the word CHRIST in it. I believe the name Christopher comes from the word Christian, so after all of this the n...

Dear Gracelyn

Dear Gracelyn, Oh my gosh. Where do I even begin?  My baby is one year old today. I can't believe my eyes. 1 year of beautiful life. 1 year that I am the worlds most blessed mom. 1 year of chubby cuddles. 1 year of firsts. 1 year of you.  My heart swells just looking at you and the gorgeous little girl you are. Being your  mom is the most painful, stressful and most rewarding thing I have ever done. You don't understand right now but every time I see you, my life lights up and my heart fills up with joy because you are mine. I have loved watching you grow up to be a happy little girl. You have always been so calm yet wild and I  love that about you. You're also adventurous and strong willed and I can only dream of what those qualities will bring you in life. I pray that your life would be filled with all the riches that our lord has for you. He is the only thing in this life that will never leave you or forsake you. My heart yearns for you to know Jesus and to love a...

7 Months

7 MONTHS Height, Weight, & Head: 28 inches tall, 21 pounds, and 16 inches around the head. Big girl! Clothes:   She is currently getting out of 9 months and moving on to size 12 months.  Mmm, Blueberry waffles! Eating:   We're still letting her "sample" food but she's still loving mommy's milk. She will start kicking and smile when I say, "Are you ready for milkies!?"  I also show her the sign for milk. (Being that her big cousin Saydee is deaf, Gracie will be learning sign language.) She loves pasta and strawberries! She even tried steak from chipotle the other day. There are lots of days where all she does is nurses. I'm not worried about her not eating enough...she is happy and healthy and continues to gain weight.  The camera interrupted her. ;) Sleeping:   She sleeps 8 hours or more every night. We put her down about 8 and she wakes up between 4 and 5. David is usually the one who goes to get her and then...
