Our last month at home seemed to really fly by. We had so much fun spending time with our family and friends in Mt. Pleasant, Grand Bend, and good old Kalamazoo! We were busy packing up to move out of our place in Kzoo and packing bags for our trip abroad. As usual, we ended up with probably too much stuff but it's hard to make cuts once everything is in the bags! Poor Daddy had room for only the essentials while his girls took over most of the bags. Thanks Daddy, we love you!
Reese decided to take her first steps this month which was exciting but a little sad too. It's so hard to believe how fast our baby is growing up. She took just 2 or 3 steps the first time and would only do so when she really wanted something badly enough. It didn't seem to matter how much encouragement we gave, it was more about what we could find to really pique her interest!
She is still making her usual sounds (ba and oooh) and haven't heard 'mama' again, outside of the one week in July when that's all she said.
We unofficially weighed her before we left and think she weighs close to 24lbs! She is quite the solid little girl. Will report back again once we have official weight and height measurements.
Here are some pics from our little beaner's 10th month- eating homemade juice popsicles from Daddy, trying on clothes, doing the bear crawl (much more effective in a dress!), getting her first real pair of shoes (thanks Grandpa Lewis), playing in Lake Michigan, and hanging at the cottage.
