This week brought to you by the letter T....


What does the letter T stand for? Yes, T if for TEN, like the number of months I am old. Hard to believe, but I turned 10 months old this week already. I say it every week, but it has sure gone fast! I've developed so much in the last few weeks with all my newfound mobility and I have blossomed into my own little person... which leads me into my next T word;
T is also for TANTRUM.
I know, I know, hard to believe that sweet little me has tantrums already, but it's true. I mostly have my meltdowns when I'm being held against my will...so changing clothes, diapers, and putting on my hat and jacket are the worst! I usually throw my body backwards and whine and scream- It's a lot of fun for whoever is trying to hold me down! So you can see why I didn't cooperate for the best 10 month picture:)
So usually this is what it comes to- I crawl away and stand up on something then I'm totallly happy...whether I'm clothed or not depends!

T is also for TEETH! At this point, my teeth are coming a little slower than most 10 month olds. I still only have 1 tooth, but I am currently working on #2...my other bottom front tooth. I haven't been too crabby (yet), just a drool monster and 1 or 2 low grade fevers the last few days. You can kind of see my tooth and the incoming one in the picture below...


My mom and dad celebrated their 3rd wedding anniversary this week and that meant TONS of fun with TWO of my favorite people...my grandma and grandpa Dummer. They came to my house to babysit me while mom and dad had a dinner date. Grandma got to see what a good eater I am with big people food!


Being so mobile, comes with new discoveries...
T is for TROUBLE!
I am SO curious about Sophie Dog, most of the time a little too curious. Sophie puts up with a lot, but because I like to stand so much, I often crawl over to her and try to use her body for support to get up, and she's not such a fan of me putting my 20 pounds of weight on her belly (can you blame her?!?!) Mom and dad are constantly pulling me away from her bed and saying 'no, no, no'! I just want to love my big sis:)


I also am getting into a little bit of TROUBLE with our Christmas tree...I've actually been pretty good with it, but just the last few days there are some very pretty red ornaments I want to take off and chew on, and I also want those cords!

(I was mom's big helper when she wrapped presents though:) I haven't even tried to tear into those yet!

Today was our Spielman family Christmas and even though I was TIRED most of the time, I was a TROOPER and I got to see lots of family...
Auntie Lori put me in the photo booth and I loved all the bright lights!

Uncle David even managed to get me to stop crying...I watched my big cousins Connor and Chloe color and you know me, Ms. Independant, I wanted a crayon too:)
So 1 Christmas down, 4 more to go!
Lots more to report on next weekend I'm sure about my first stocking and present opening experiences:)
Have a TERRIFIC Holiday everyone!
All our Love,
Danika, Daren and Jamie
