10 Months in 2 days

Hello everyone! Wow, we've been so busy! Mom's getting ready to go back to work tomorrow, and we're getting ready for Naomi to start daycare on Wednesday. So far the introduction to daycare is going great, mom left her there for an hour after spending some time with her and apparently she was an angel. So that's great.

At daycare she should be able to keep up with the other kids a bit, she doesn't walk like all of them do yet, but she can finally crawl! I would probably say that her first official day of crawling was the 14th of May. It's still mostly an army crawl/slither but every now and then her knees really get in on the action. But the big goal, moving forward towards an object has been met. No more going backwards and getting frustrated! Now she's starting to pick up speed to, so that's great...well great that she's mobile, but now we've really got to watch her!

She's finally really figured out finger food. For a while she could only do it if she was holding something long like a cut pepper or, for special treats only, a french fry. But once she got to her hand she couldn't figure out what to do with it. But the other day she had cheerios and ate a whole bunch of them all by herself, she thought it was great. Dad had to show her how to do it, but one demonstration and she had it.

Anyhow, that's all for now. Oh, and we've started another photo album on facebook, so if you want to see pictures check it out, if you're not on facebook try this link: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=93346&id=722860770&l=11099906dd
