Clover's 10 month update.

I can't believe how fast the time goes by. I feel like I'm always saying this now, but it's true! Only two more months and Clover will be One! I realized the other day that I need to actually start thinking about her party because it will be here before we know it. Clover is very close to walking and loves pushing her wagon around the house and the neighborhood. She can push it all the way around the block! She babbles constantly now, experimenting with new sounds everyday. Her favorite word is "Dada" and she cheers this while jumping up and down and flapping her arms or clapping whenever "Dada" enters the room. It must be nice to have a fan club. She can say "Mama", but doesn't very often. When I try to get her to say it she responds with "Dada"! HA, what are ya do? Clover loves to wave to everyone and everything and say "hi" or "bub, bye". Her newest trick is clapping and she'll do this in celebration of just about anything you can think of. This morning she watched me open the refrigerator door and promptly started bouncing on her knees and clapping before crawling over to look inside......the refrigerator and the dishwasher a both a big hit in this house! Clover is a great little sleeper (knock on wood)! She sleeps 11 hours stretches now and even goes back to sleep for another hour in the morning after I feed her. She also happily takes two 2 - 2 1/2 hour naps during the day. This is great news for Mommy, because anyone who knows me well, knows that I LOVE sleep and can't get enough of it. I'm thankful she inherited this hobby of mine :) Oh, and I almost forgot....Clover finally got her first tooth!! It's her bottom right one. I expect to see more soon, but you never know....it took nearly 10 months grow his one.


Happily enjoying the Cheerios that Great Grandma and Gran'dad sent in her Halloween card!

Chowin' down on some bread at the Olive Garden for Daddy's Birthday!

Practicing her stair climbing. She likes to go up and down the first 2 stairs, but doesn't really seem interested in going any further.....what a cautious little girl!
