10 Months Old!

Ms. Madie Lou is 10 months old today.  She is growing so fast, I am not sure we can keep up!  Every day is a new and exciting adventure.  Madie is 28.5 inches tall and 20.5 lbs - just perfect.  She crawls like a crazy person and more than once I have said "where is Madie?  She was just here!"  (she's usually by CoCo's food and water - dumping or trying to eat!)  Ms. Thing is eating more and more table foods but really loves cheese and blueberries.  She also eats sweet potatoes, bananas and avacodos.  We are getting to the point where she really doesn't want to eat anything she isn't feeding herself - uh-oh!  Meals are about to get REAL interesting at the McQuitty house.  Madie pulls up and cruises and has recently started standing all by herself for at least 10 seconds. She is so proud of this accomplishment. Madie  has a super funny personality - her favorite things to do right now are say AH-Choo!  and pretend she is taking a nap, we can do this for hours.  Her favorite toys are her castle tent, Captain Courderoy (don't ask), her baby which she rocks and says "ahhhhhh", her stroller, and faithful old Sophie.  Madie says Da-Da all the time and now actually knows what it means!  It is SO cute!  We are not sure, but we are pretty confident she is also trying to say no.  Anytime we do anything she doesn't want she says na-na-na-na.  Madie continues to be in endless pursuit of CoCo and strengthen their love-hate relationship.  It is so much fun watching her little BIG personality grow.  Boy are we in for a ride.  Love you more than words Madie Lou!
