Dagny hit the 10 month mark and kept on trucking. She's crawling everywhere, even up the entire basement staircase. She can pull up and cruise around on two feet. A few times last week, she got herself to a standing position and then let go to be "Free Standing" but that lasts just a couple seconds at best. Not too shabby!
She can push herself backwards on her little car.
She's eating more and more people food now that she's got nearly 5 teeth (including two on the top with a cute little gap in between). Here she is showing off her fork skills post-dinner. In reality, she can eat things off a fork if we poke the food onto it first.
The biggest development is probably her talking. She's able to say "hi" and wave, which is adorable (except at 6am). She will echo "uh-oh" if something falls or she drops something off her highchair tray. We also think she's saying "no" sometimes, though her dramatic head shake makes the word not too necessary. Dan's working on getting her to say "up" when she wants to be picked up and claims he's making good progress :) Here are a couple of blurry videos I took before bed the other night trying to capture her waves, "hi's" and one "uh-oh".
At school, she continues to have fun with her little friends. She chases her buddies through the tunnel and up the climber. She has learned to enjoy the sandbox and crawling around outside, too. Last week, her teacher told me how she crawled up to a friend who was having a snack and began to feed her cheerios and then the little girl fed her some in return. How funny! She's a handful, for sure, but so darn cute :)
