Happy ten months Katie Sue! Time is flying by. This has been a month of movement for Kate. Kate has moved from pulling up to cruising and crawling. All her bouncing, lunging, and crawling attempts have finally gotten productive. Gone are the days of setting her down expecting her to be in the same place. She's not too fast yet, but she's getting there. Here is a cute video of the girls trying to chase each other under the dining table.
She's also started to let go a little bit and do some hands free standing. Not too much of this, but she's starting to get more confident. Sometimes she'll take forward steps while holding on to hands or a cart, but for now side stepping with the furniture or crawling is the way to go.
And teeth! Yay for two front teeth popping through, and two more on the way. We are glad for teeth, but hope they come out quickly and painlessly to give us all a respite of some much needed sleep. The other new thing we've seen this month is a few attempts at waving. It's cute to see her interact with the world around her.
Kate is also developing a little stubborn and tenacious streak. When she wants something, you will certainly hear about it. And if you take something away from her that she wanted, watch out. Shrieks will ensue! Other than asserting her will from time to time, she's still such a happy sweet part of our family.
