10 months!

 Sophie is 10 months old today! Until now she's been pure sweetness; this month she started showing some attitude. But it's still mixed with a lot of sweetness. :)
She has 2 teeth and drools constantly. Her favorite food is yogurt (Chobani key lime, to be exact). We're still not sure what color her eyes are. Now that she's crawling, she's getting around everywhere she wants to go, and she loves that. Her favorite activities are playing in the pantry, laughing at her brother, and being with Grandpa Garth.

Here's the required picture overload--because she's such a beautiful girl!

Before I realized she could, she got into the sugar and made a huge mess. That's what's all over her face here.

Pumpkin patch

We have an adorable pumpkin patch in the middle of our town called Kleather's. Here's a collection of photos from the several times we went this pumpkin season.

We wore the same shirt one time.

One of our visits was with Grandma and Grandpa and cousins (R-L because it's age-descending) Dean, Isaac and Eli.

Another trip to Kleather's was a field trip for the library's story time. Here Gavin is pictured with his best friend Macey.

It's a caramel apple lollipop. He had shared a lick with her, so she knew she wanted more... :)

Milestones

Sophie recently got her first tooth (about 3 weeks ago it started to break through). It's not the usual first tooth. Or second or third or fourth. You can see it above. If not, here's the detailed view.

The crazy part: her second tooth is coming in, and it's the mirror of this one! She's about to give us a preview of how she'll look as a first-grader with no front teeth.

Sophie also started crawling last week. Here's a video from today. She had just grabbed her Dad's tie off the banister, so I'm not sure if she intended to take it along on her crawl or not. :)
