10 Months!

The girls turned 10 months on the 22nd. Amazing. Everyone is still doing awesome. Here is the scoop.

Kenzie is cruising everywhere! I really don't think it will be long before they are walking. She has the best smile that just warms my heart everytime. Her favorite word is dada. She also says mama, but only when she is upset. She is definitely the bully in the house. Constantly taking things away from Lexie and pushing her over. She absolutely loves music and dances everytime she hears it. She is still a mama's girl and usually starts wailing when I am out of her sight.

Lexie is taking her role as "baby of the family" very seriously. She cries when she falls, cries when Kenzie takes her toys, cries when she wants to be held, etc. She is making the funniest faces lately and always makes me laugh. She is standing independently all the time and has tried to take a couple of steps, until she realizes she isn't holding on to anything and then she falls down. She also cruises all over the house and will walk while holding someone's hands. Her favorite word is also dada, and she can say mama as well.

Kenzie loves all food and Lexie is trying to be picky. Baby food is a thing of the past in this house. Give these kids some real food! They are both great eaters and are doing well despite the lack of teeth. Things they love: Cheerios, pasta, potatoes, steak, ham, cucumber, grapes, cheese, banana, pears, pancakes, french toast, dried apples, yams, carrots, broccoli, peas. Things they tolerate: waffles, chicken, peanut butter & jelly, grilled cheese. If Lexie doesn't like what's on the menu, she grabs it by the handful and throws it on the floor. Oops. Neither one are too interested in sippy cups at this point, but they don't want bottles either! We are down to 2 bottles a day!

Bedtime is around 7 pm, wake up at 8 am. (2) 2 hour naps a day. Lovely schedule. They refuse to sleep anywhere other than their cribs which make errands somewhat difficult. They will not sleep in their carseats. But, I can usually keep them awake for about 4 hours at a time now if I need to be out and about.


Both are obsessed with Madison. I mean, really obsessed. They want to be wherever she is and fight over her attention. Madison just eats this up. She is great with them, always playing with them and sharing her toys.

Loving the giggles and kisses. Loving the milestones, can't wait for more!

Kenzie's first tooth made it's appearance on December 23, 2011 (10 months 1 day old)
Lexie's first tooth showed up on January 3, 2012 (10 months 12 days old)
(Madison got her first tooth when she was 10 months & 8 days so these 2 are following her footsteps!)
