10 Months Old

Isabel is taking 10 months by storm. She's turned into a wiggly, squirmy baby who doesn't sit still unless it is to eat, solids, not milk.
 
At 10 months of age, Isabel is:
*Climbing on top of the dishwasher and trying to empty it for me

*Flushing the toilet, over and over and over again in a matter of seconds
*Splashing in the toilet water
*Yanking on the toilet paper rolls and unwinding the toilet paper by the foot (see a theme here, my kids are struggling with keeping the bathroom doors closed).
*Pulling off all the door stoppers in the house
*Starting to get into cupboards and empty them
*Has a slight obsession with little tubes that fit in her hand (trial size tooth paste tubes, diaper rash cream, orajel, etc) especially right now when she's getting a new tooth

*Is trying to vocally say "More" (usually it's mo mo mo mo mo in a demanding tone) "Milk", "Up" (puh, puh), "Momma"

*Starting to stand all by herself
*Loves to eat. She is most frustrated when I am cooking dinner, she can smell it and I don't give her anything. There isn't much she won't eat. She went hog wild over the cheesey puffs the kids were eating the other day.

*Smiley, Energetic, Loud, Intense, especially when we can't understand what she wants

*LOVES to be around her brothers and sister. She absolutely lights up around them.

 

 

 *Attached to a pink fluffy blankie that used to be one of Lexi's doll blankets until Isabel stole it. She is always standing up in her crib holding onto her blankie when I come to get her from a nap and refuses to let go of it.
 

 *Sneaks up the stairs if one of the kids leaves them open. Squeals when she gets caught. Can go up really easily, but doesn't know how to get down.

 *Has enough hair for little pigtails now. They're pretty adorable if you ask me :)
 

*Enjoying books more and more. Her favorites are the lift the flap peek-a-boo books
