10 Months

My little monkey is 10 months old today. She is right about 17 lbs, which puts her at about the 25th percentile for weight and the 90th for height. She's still wearing a 6-9 months in clothes. Some 12 months are starting to fit, which is good because that's the size I bought her for fall/winter.
She is constantly on the move. She crawls very quickly, cruises around while holding on, climbs the stairs, climbs on furniture, and opens cabinet doors. She stood by herself for about 10 seconds yesterday.
She LOVES to eat. Here she is with a snack of Cheerios. They were in the bowl behind her, but she prefers to eat them off the floor. She drinks out of a straw or a sippy cup, but she absolutely refuses to take a bottle while I work. She does like to suck on the Alexa's baby doll's bottle, though. She eats 3 solid meals a day with occasional snack and is still nursing like a champ as well. She has 4 teeth.
In addition to constantly being on the move, she is also constantly making noise. She loves banging toys to make noise. She "sings" along to the hymns at church and family devotions and "prays" along with us before meals. She says "Da, da" and has a cute goat sounding laugh.
I love my baby Jordanna (and that Caleb actually thinks that the word baby is part of her name)!
