True 10 Months

I can not believe this perfect little angel is going to be one in less than two months! She is the light of our lives along with her big bro. She is doing so much she cracks us up all the time. Some of the new things she is doing are:

She puts her hands on her head when you say, "Truey, where's your head?" She also knows ears and nose. She is signing up a storm. She signs:

All Done

Bye Bye

Milk

Yay! (Clapping)

Touchdown! (or: so big!)

Change Diaper

And she points to things a lot.

She always sings, coos and talks. She has the sweetest little voice and I love when she babbles.

She loves avocado and eats them almost daily. Today she ate half of a really good sized one.

She has recently been giving me a break and sleeping from 6:30 or 7 (whenever she goes down) to 11:30 or 12. It has been really nice to go out with my hubby and know she is just sleeping peacefully and not needing Mom. It is great!

She nurses a lot still and I hope that ends no time soon!

She is trying really hard to crawl but she is still not getting her torso off the ground and it is frustrating her to know end. She wants to get stuff really bad.

Here she is:

Sunsets

I've had the pleasure of photographing some beautiful skies this year. I see so many more and just don't grab my camera enough. I should...

My Hubby Can Shoot

Kevin picks up my camera and has an amazing knack for photography. A true artist in every sense of the word...

Saghebbi, Bastick, Perftick

I just had to post about cute pronunciations and phrases Cache says right now:

Spaghetti-Saghebbi

Basket-Bastick

Perfect-Perftick

A lot of things are, "Amazing!" right now. Such as, "Muver, (mother) these tracks are amazing!" And a new favorite phrase is, "Just a second, Muver." Tonight in the bathtub he told me out of no where-with perfect inflection-"Oh, my mistake." When he takes a majorish fall or gets a decent scraped knee it's a, "Big huge BIG huge big-boy fall!!" Cache was watering my Bleeding Hearts and Hostas in the corner of the yard. Cache said, "Mom, I'm watering your pastas." I thought that was really cute. The other night he told his Dad, "Dad, it's fun to know stuff." Cache knows all of his letters and is currently working on the sounds they all make. He is constantly asking me what letter words start with and what sound certain letters make. So neat. Lately he has been getting compliments like: articulate, great enunciation, very polite, serious, and often, funny. He commands the attention in a room. Doesn't always get it, but always tries. He reminds me a lot of my Dad in a lot of ways. Well, they're both Capricorns!

Cache carries and 'nurses' his baby.

Truey doing her favorite thing: being outside.

Cache rides the train at the mall with his Nana.

Cache 'fixes' everything! Here he drills and hammers at the same time! Mad skills.

Cache being a rock star!

Cache

Cache is getting so smart and learning so much everyday. He is super into learning the sounds all the letters make and how they form words. He asks me all day long what letter a word starts with and telling me what sounds letters make and what letter words start with. He is so smart! He loves being outside, going for walks, going to the park, going anywhere really and staying home and helping Mom. He is an amazing helper, very energetic and just an all around sweet boy! Here are some new pix of Cache:

True 9 Months

True. Baby girl is nine months old! I can't believe how time flies! She is an absolute joy of a baby! Her favorite things to do right now are making all sorts of different sounds, being outside, going for rides in the wagon, playing with Cache and Daddy and eating. She will sit in high chair and feed herself for a half hour! She loves strawberries, avocado, crackers, bread, chicken, curry, rice, cous cous, spaghetti, etc, etc, etc...

I just switched all her clothes out for the next size round. She is in 12-18 months size now!

I grow more in love with my little girl everyday and I can't believe how big and beautiful she is getting!
