10 Months Old!!

Today, Marlee turned 10 months! Wow! I can't believe that in two short months, we will be celebrating her 1 year birthday! We actually went to the doctor today because Marlee has not been feeling well. So on her 10 month birthday, she has an ear infection! It is her second ear infection (first one was in Sept). While at the doctor's office, Marlee got weighed and is 18 pounds 12 ounces. Since her 9 month appointment, Marlee has been eating more table foods. She loves string cheese, banannas, peaches, , apples, chicken sticks (like Vienna sausages), carrots, and turkey lunch meat. While that may not seem like a huge food variety, I'm trying to get her used to eating the different textures while also giving her some baby foods to fill in the gaps! Marlee has also begun taking steps!! She's actually been taking steps for several weeks now (to me or Kendall if we stand her up), but now she is at the point where she is walking to an object that is near where she is at. She's taking 4-5 steps at a time! In no time we are going to be chasing her around the house, so I'm treasuring these last few days/weeks of her crawling!

Below is a short video clip of Marlee taking some steps to Kendall! She's getting so big!!!

Hi, there, Sam! Talked to Jenn the other day, and I had to scoot over to your blog to see how you're doing. Marlee is too cute! What a beautiful family. :-) And LOVE the Parlee Pockets, too!

That's crazy she's walking!!! Lexi has that exact dress, btw. Although Brooklyn walked at 10 months, Lexi is FAR from even standing by herself. She JUST started crawling a week ago! It's so cute when they wobble like that, isn't it?
