Milestones: Isla 10 Months Old!

It is getting so hard to take your picture because you are always happily on the move!

Sweet Isla, you are getting so big and it is happening way too fast! You now have 4 front teeth, you can stand unassisted (but not walking yet), and you are eating solid foods like a champ! You are doing your best to keep up with your siblings and you are becoming more and more attached to your Mama. It has been hard for me to homeschool Austin because you want to be in my arms at all times! You love to sit in my lap and read stories, and you are getting harder to take a picture of because you never sit still! If we turn our backs on you for a second, you are already halfway up the stairs or playing in the toilet! I have to keep reminding people to keep the bathroom doors closed because you LOVE playing in the bathroom.... the toilet brush being a big draw for you (to my utter horror). I am chasing you every second of the day and it is exhausting! But you make me smile every second of the day so it is worth it :). You know what the word "NO" means and you stop whatever you are doing to start shaking your head vehemently when you hear it. It is the cutest thing and it makes me laugh so hard! I can't even explain how smart you are. It is amazing, truly! You try to repeat every word we say as verbal skills have always been your forte! You can now hold your own bottle and you love getting into EVERYTHING, making our house a disaster zone in minutes! I am scared to put up the Christmas tree this year because I can totally see you trying to climb it! No feat is too big in your eyes and I love that about you, but it can also be very scary! Last night, you made us laugh by army crawling behind the couch so you could get into Evie's school desk (we block it off so you can't get to it) and you were so proud of yourself when you made it! The world is going to be your oyster baby girl, that much I am sure of! 

Your favorite activity :)

You always go for Evie's headphones whenever you break into her school desk area ;)

Getting ready for your first football game!

Daylight Savings time was rough this year. You did NOT approve....

Holding your own bottle like a big girl!

I nicknamed you "Munchies" because I LOVE to munch on those squishy cheeks!

Everywhere we go, people tell me they just absolutely LOVE your smile! It is so sweet and so big! You make people smile without even trying, everywhere we go :).
