Well, you guys just keep growing faster than I can keep up. It's amazing! Your 10th month is going so fast. Alison just started to pull up in earnest. She could do it in her crib, but on Jan. 31st decided it was FUN. So now we have Alison attempting to pull up on everything. Martin can stand up next to anything and will cruise the furniture just a little. He hasn't quite put it together that he could use it as a mode of transport.
Your little personalities are so much fun. You love to laugh and sometimes you just fake laugh for no reason and then we'll laugh with you and you'll laugh for real!! I love it! The dragon breathing was big in month 10. That is - Alison blowing in and out through her nose with her lips pursed and her brow furrowed. Totally cute. Martin likes to try, but keeps his hand next to his mouth telling me that he's sorta has to keep it closed. It's very funny!! See Pic!You both had the stomach flu during this time and it was miserable. Alison got it first in the night, but didn't complain about it. I found out in the a.m. to find a HUGE stain on your sheet and vomit on your pretty little head! Gross! Then the "runs" kicked in and that has been a barrel of monkeys. Martin got it all 2nd and also in the middle of the night. He woke up and caused quite a raucous. We had to get you both out of your room and change sheets and Martin got a bath as he decided to have both "ends" explode simultaneously! DELIGHTFUL!
Your Daddy has been traveling a lot this month and will do more in a week. It's hard for us to not have him here, but we manage. You sure do miss him!! Alison says da da da da all the time. We have NO idea if you are talking about HIM, but we give you credit nonetheless!! We are quickly coming up on your first birthday and while I am so proud of you for all you have accomplished in this short life, I am sad that you won't be my little babies anymore!!
You've tasted rocks!! See pictures.
You eat all kinds of stuff! You eat a lot of table foods. You love Cheerios and Kix cereal and bread andd waffles for breakfast. Sometimes you get whole wheat pancakes too! You eat peas, deli meats, pieces of chicken, ham, turkey, cheese, goldfish, crackers are a big hit right now! Black beans, yogurt, applesauce, bananas, pears, apples and MORE...
Alison doesn't have any teeth yet, but Martin has 4. Top two and bottom two fronts. It's funny. They are coming in a little WIDE apart. I hope it resolves when other teeth come in!!
You take 2 naps a day and have 3 meals and 3 bottles. The Superbowl is this coming weekend and the Seattle Seahawks will play the Pittsburgh Steelers. Superbowl 40 - (XL)
