Laikyn Cree | 10 Months - Ashlee Nichols

10 months!? Ho-ly-COW. We’re in the double digits and I don’t like it!! 2 more months and this sweet baby will be a YEAR OLD. They’re not joking when they say DON’T BLINK! It sure does go by quickly. These have been the best 10 months of our lives and she brings us so so much joy. Every single day I feel a new love and a new feeling for her that I can’t explain.

I constantly think about Mary’s love for her son, Jesus, and how she let him go to God. I can’t imagine the pain that came with having to say goodbye, but what a great God we serve that Jesus rose again! Laikyn celebrated her first Easter and had a great time. We went to church and hunted Easter eggs. We stayed in Seminole and then went up to Canyon for a few days to spend time with my family.

There is something about West Texas and Springtime that I just love, and these days are so happy! We get to spend most of the day outside and Laikyn loves that! Despite the wind…these days have been perfect. I have also been playing with my camera and finding a good setting for pictures with her! My sweet friend, Bonnie, showed me a few things that I have been practicing and I love! Now momma just needs a new lens for Mother’s Day (hint hint….to my husband who probably doesn’t even read this blog. haha!)

Anyway, here is LC’s 10 month update!

Age :: ten months

Length :: 29ish inches

Weight :: 18 lbs

Milestones :: LC has 8 teeth still. No new teeth this month. She’s got 4 top and 4 bottom. She is still standing alone and walking with very little assistance. She actually took her first steps on her 10 month birthday which was Easter. She stepped to daddy.

She’s getting braver and braver each day! She’s still motoring around on her knees, bear crawling or pushing her walker (or anything else she can find to push). She’s saying lots of new words: dada, baba, mama, uh-oh, more, hi, bye-bye, go. Mostly it’s just UH-OH on repeat these days! She drops/throws something just to hear herself say it! It’s pretty much the cutest thing ever! She’s waving, shaking her head “no”, clapping, playing games with us and pretty much stealing our hearts every day!

Sleep :: Sleep is still amazing! She is sleeping anywhere from 11-13 hours at night and taking 1-2.5 hour naps in the day. She’s taking 2 naps; one morning and one afternoon. The past 2 days she has taken 2 2.5 hour naps..5 hours of nap time! BLISS. 🙂

Favorites :: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, feeding herself, nursing, bath time, going anywhere, climbing, playing with anything that’s NOT a toy. Ha! She loooooves animals and gets so excited when she sees a dog!

Doesn’t like :: She’s getting better with the carseat since she LOVES Mickey. We switched to the convertible car seat this month and she doesn’t seem to mind it at all anymore. She doesn’t really like to take her clothes off…stay that way baby girl, it will make us way happy! haha!

Foods :: She LOVES everything except for green beans. She will literally eat anything. Even brussel sprouts.

Not too much to report this month. I expect her to be walking within a month or two. She’s just keeping me busy and on the go! We’ve been playing outside and loving it! I just love being her mommy! Taking her picture has become a challenge…she usually gives me a few good ones out of the 100 that I take! 😉
