Coloring Eggs

Saturday morning, Grace and I got up and colored half a dozen eggs to take to the Easter Egg Hunt later that morning...

Pork Chop, please!

Grace was sitting in her Daddy's lap while he was eating supper and she kept reaching for his bbq pork chop, so he let her at it. And she LOVED it! I was a little leary about it because the sauce is so spicy, but it didn't seem to bother her a bit! Guess she loves King Larry's sauce as much as her Momma!

Relaxful Sleep

102

Scott's great-aunt Thelma turned 102 this year. We've been meaning to get by and see her since Grace was born and it wasn't in the cards until a few weeks ago. She's in the nursing home in Edenton and it worked out that Scott and I could meet over there after he worked at Albemarle for the day. Thelma is Scott's grandmother (Grace)'s sister.

Sink Bath

At Bulls Bay we have to take sink baths because there isn't a tub here and its a little to difficult to take a shower since I'm not standing alone on my own yet.

10 Months Old

Grace turned 10 months old on Monday (May 8th)!

1*She's pulling up everywhere. Once she gets up she wont walk along whatever she pulled up on to get to an object yet. Instead she falls and crawls to where the object is an pulls up again.
2*She loves waving bye-bye and still enjoys playing peek-a-boo.
3*Grace still only 3 teeth. But it looks like a few others may start to come in at any time.
4*As of Wednesday she is now completely off propranolol. But we're still crossing our fingers and praying that her hemangioma doesn't begin to grow again.
5*Her wonderful sleep habits have changed. It seems that her internal alarm clock has switched itself from 7am to 5:30am. Her napping isn't as good either. I think it has to do with not being on the propranolol anymore.
6*She says "Dada", "hey", "that", "duck" and a bunch of other sounds that we can't quite figure out yet!
7*She has begun to point at things.
8*Grace is wearing 6-9 month clothes. She can fit into some 9mo. clothes, but it all depends on the brand.
9*She had her first vomiting virus Wednesday night. Talk about pitiful (and a mess). I hurt just as much as she did. So glad she's beginning to feel better!
10*She still loves to read. Grace has a bucket of books and a bucket of toys and she hasn't played with her bucket of toys in a while. She heads straight for the books!

These pictures were taken on Monday. We were at Bulls Bay & I couldn't find paper and didn't have a printer to be able to make her a "10 month old" sign. But they were taken on the actual day!


Happy 10 month birthday baby girl. Guess I better get in gear planning her 1st birthday party. It will be here before we know it! :(
