10 Things About Kate @ 10 Months

So I am a little behind on this, as Kate turned 11 months old (11 MONTHS OLD!!) on Sunday. You know, everyone says the time flies--and it does ... well, after the first few months, at least.

Anyway, here are 10 things about Kate @ 10 months:

1. She took her first steps ... although she hasn't really taken too many more. She loves cruising around the furniture and anything else--the wall, the windows, a random canvas bag on the floor--but she hasn't just "taken off" with her walking yet. It'll come ...
   
2. She loves standing at the television and banging on the screen. She also loves playing with the pop-out panel. She's turned the TV on and off a time or two, too. Oh yeah--and she can't wait to knock the CDs off of the shelf each morning.
   
3. We have this little game we play--she loves for me to nibble on her fingers. When I am giving her a bottle, she'll hold her hands up for me to nip at (or act like it), and she will laugh and laugh and laugh. It's so cute.
4. She doesn't like the vacuum. It didn't used to bother her, but she's started crying when I vacuum her room when she's in there.
   
5. She is eating more and more adult food. She loves trying new things! She still eats mostly baby food (stage 3 and occasionally a stage 2) and formula, but we're introducing more "grown-up" stuff to her diet.
   
6. We have ourselves a little addiction. To pacis.
   
7. She still kicks her little legs when she's excited about something. So cute.
8. Her seventh tooth started popping through. It's one of the bottom ones next to the two in the middle.
   
9. She loves opening drawers and emptying the contents. LOVES this. Oh, and opening and closing doors, too. (Ones that aren't shut all the way, of course)
10. Favorite non-toy toys: keys, remote control, cell phone, paper, camera, keyboard, wires. She is attracted to these things like bugs to a porchlight.
    
    And one to grow on ...
11. Kate loves walking behind anything with wheels--such as her Little People school bus. Lately, she's really taken to pushing her own stroller around the living room--and she's gotten quite good at it! Aunt Robin gave her a little shopping cart that was Ri and Beck's, and she is really loving it!
