10 Months

Today Evelyn is 10 months old. We don't go to the doctor this month but it doesn't look like she has grown much. Evelyn loves to stand up. She can pretty much use anything to stand up (couch, toys, windows, walls, dishwasher, etc). She doesn't need anything to pull up on a flat surface like our glass sliding door (which is just crazy). Evelyn is "cruising" all the furniture, toys, walls, etc. She will even walk with help from us or her walker.

We are currently working on transitioning to a sippy cup. So far its not going well since she doesn't like to hold her own drink. The goal is to have her using a sippy cup by 12 months. After her first birthday, we will transition to regular milk. Evelyn is eating baby food as well as finger food. She just loves fruits like peaches, pineapple, and pears. She has also tried small potatoes, rice, corn, and bread. So far, she will pretty much eat anything but green foods.

This month we have gotten two new toys that she just loves and I figured I would let you know about them (for all the moms that have children younger than me). First is the Fisher-Price Brilliant Basics: Activity Walker. Its a walker and becomes a wagon then your child is a little older. She just loves it and will use it to walk around (with some help). The second toy is vtech Sit to Stand Alphabet Train. She just got this toy today and is very interested in it. You can sit and play with all the buttons. You can use the front part of the train as a walker. And lastly, you can sit on the back part of the train and drive around.
