10 Months Old

Okay- not exactly the first picture you'd expect to see for Leinna's 10 month birthday. However, this is how our last week of Leinna being 9 months old started. Sunday night, we heard a loud pop. It almost sounded like a gun shot, which we frequently hear at our house, so we didn't think anything of it. Well, Monday morning Leinna and I were ready to head to school and well- the garage only opened about 6 inches. Yep- the loud pop the night before was the spring breaking in the garage door. Thankfully, we were able to open the door manually and drive the car out. However, I really wanted to grill steaks the other night- so this was Leif's solution to keeping the door up. I thought it was pretty creative!

Leinna giving me a hint that I need to update the blog again! Leif opened a word document and wouldn't you know the first word she "typed" was A**.

I guess when you are 10 months old you can move to more sophisticated novels. Leinna just loves her books. She really doesn't chew on them, but loves to turn the pages and tell you her version of the story.

After a week of being sick, Leinna sure is making up for it. Besides the increased eating, she's busier than ever. She's really trying hard to brave the idea of standing without any support. She's also been watching her friend Blake climb up onto things and now Leinna is starting to mimic the climbing behavior--- NO!!! I'm not ready for an increase in mobility. In fact, I plan to spend my first official Mother's Day weekend completely reorganizing to have the house even more baby-proof.
Simply amazed that 10 months ago our little Leinners joined us. The time she has gone by fast, but I'm enjoying every minute of it! I'm so thankful next school year I will only be working part-time again. Leif and I had kicked around the idea of moving to another area in order for me to be able to work full-time, but decided it was best for our family to stay in Cordova.

  1. Such a cutie-pa-tootie! Always remember that her abundance of activity and busyness is a good sign! Have a happy Mother's Day!
