10 Months!

Scarlett is 10 months old today!  She weighs 17 pounds 1 ounce and is 27 inches long.  We just packed away all the 3-6 month clothes.  She is still holding strong with three teeth on the bottom, and two still fighting their way through on top, and a constant stream of drool from her lip.  She likes to look at things upside down.  She smiles when I say, "Boo!"  Her favorite toy (besides her ever-present Wubbanub collection) is a robot that hangs from her car seat handle; she will grab the rings and shake it the whole time we are in the car.  She still sleeps through the night most of the time, and takes at least one long nap and a few short "power naps" during the day.  Still no rolling over, but we're getting close to her sitting unsupported.  As always, she sets her own schedule.

We are now 8 months out from the discovery and diagnosis of her brain tumor.  She continues to grow and thrive every day, and we could not be happier!

I'm pretty sure in the land of milestones brain surgery trumps rolling over. Just saying ..

So AWESOME!! I love to hear about Scarlett's milestones. If it makes you feel any better, my full term twins only weigh about 17-1/2 lbs and they just turned 1 this week. One walks everywhere and has 1-1/2 teeth and the other barely crawls, can finally pull himself up, and has 6 teeth. Tumor or not, they're all just so different and grow at their own rates.

Keep on truckin', Mama!! I'm so excited for Scarlett. Happy 10 months!!
