Elizabeth is 10 Months

Hello all! The year is off to a busy start, so far. Cline has been working a ton since Christmas, and the girls and I have been busy getting back into our routines. Christa is getting ready for her first ballet recital of the year this weekend, and Abby Kate is recovering from a string of minor illnesses. Thankfully, she seems to be feeling better, and her appetite has returned! Christa had her first "spend-the-night-friend" over this weekend. One of my best friends brought her 3 daughters to spend Friday and Saturday with us. Her husband is currently deployed overseas, so we entertained each other while Cline worked. The girls did amazingly well together. They went upstairs to Christa's room, closed the door, and played together for hours. We decided to let them try sleeping together. We started out with 3 girls in Christa's bed. Around 10 or 11, Lydia decided she actually wanted to sleep, so she came downstairs and went to bed. Catherine (who is almost 5) and Christa talked until midnight, then finally fell asleep.

Preparing for many late nights ahead with my girls and their friends!

Elizabeth is 10 months!! She's crawling everywhere, eating all kinds of baby food, starting some table food, and sleeping through the night most nights. She continues to be incredibly happy and laid back. She can pull up to her knees, but sometimes falls over trying to do more.

Sweet girl!

Love that smile and those cheeks! She only has the 2 bottom teeth; I keep thinking the top teeth are coming in, but I can't see anything yet.

Have a great day!
