We had a playdate with the Thomas girls at the Children's Hands on Museum. Anna Riley loves this place! We had lunch at Olive Garden afterwards.

Bloct tear duct update
We went for our recheck with Dr. Kurdirka yesterday. We got pretty good news. We get to hold off on the surgery for now but we are still not in the clear. He said that he was very surprised to see that she had improved so that was a good thing but it was still not opened up all the way. He was going to give her another two months which would put her at a year old and see where she is. So hopefully we can bypass it all together but if not at least we are pushing it back a little further! :)

10 months old (Dec. 4)
Wow this month really flew by and Anna Riley is now 10 months old!! Here is what she has been up to this month...
* She weighs around 21 lbs...she weighed 22.5 this morning at the doctor's office with clothes and shoes on. I am assuming she is somewhere close to 30 inches long still.
* She is now in size 4 diapers and still wears 12-18 month clothes.
* Her shoe size depends on the type of shoe it is.
* She takes 2 really naps a day. Usually each 2 hours long.
*She has 3 teeth and I am pretty sure another one on top is trying to come through.
* Has not been sleeping good at night here lately. She almost alternates a good night then bad night. When I say bad, its not terrible but she used to be such a good sleeper. She has also had a cold and that has led to a sinus infection so hopefully after all that we will get back on track...hopefully!
*On the note of not sleeping good, she has also been waking up way earlier than what I am used to since the time change! She used to be very consistent and woke up around 8 every morning and now its often 6:30. But some mornings its 7, 7:30 but then sometimes 8:30 or even 9! So we are working on getting back on a routine with that. Just when she is on a good routine...a time change has to go throw it all off! :)
* She is still a great eater for the meantime anyways. She eats pretty much everything we do with the exception of spicy foods. We call her our garbage disposal because there are only a few things that Riley and I don't like, but she likes those foods too. She tried olives (which we both hate) for the first time the other night. She loved them so I gave her all the olives my pizza and she ate them all! She also loves tuna and I can't even stand to smell it...but Riley eats it all the time so he gives it to her. Food is food to her, it doesn't matter what it is! I am just thankful for a good eater and hope she stays that way for a good long while!
*She is becoming more mobile. She is all over the place! No walking yet though. She has almost took a step but she just leaned over instead. She walks with anything she can find though including the laundry basket, her baby stroller, chairs...if she can push it she will walk with it.
*Likes, I mean loves cabinet doors! Why do all babies/toddlers like cabinets???
*Loves looking at her books but does not want you to read them to her
*Every time we are in the car, she takes off her right shoe and sock! Yes, only the right one!!
*She has figured out that many of her shoes squeak and she loves it! She just bounces up and down to hear the squeaking noise!
*She is even more attached to her Bunny lovey. We have even had to take it in restaurants because she wouldn't let go of it.
*She is saying "DaDa" "ByeBye" and "UhOh" and says them all the time!
* She is now in size 4 diapers and still wears 12-18 month clothes.

*She has not taken after me, because we found out she loves dogs. Our friends' have a lab that is very good with kids and she loves her! So much against my will, Daddy says a dog is in the future! I do love watching how excited she is with it though.
Its just her size!
*She has had a little bit of an attitude here lately and we are definitely having to get on our game about being consistent and redirecting and all that. She has days where I am like are we entering the terrible two's and she isn't even one yet?! She is a good child but she definitely has her moments...I have a few videos to prove it! :)
*We are definitely seeing more toddler everyday and less baby which is so bittersweet!
I just had to throw the last picture in...This is how our picture sessions usually go! :)
**I cant believe its only 2 more months until my little baby will be ONE!

Thanksgiving Weekend in Fairhope
We spent Thanksgiving weekend in Fairhope with my parents and Riley's Dad. So, needless to say, Anna Riley came back pretty spoiled! We had a wonderful time though with the exception of that horrible ending to the Iron Bowl game on Friday!! :( Mom and I did lots and lots of shopping and I can say that I have most of my Christmas shopping done and it feels great! I do have just a couple more items to pick up but that's it. It was so nice to have both of our parents there and Anna Riley just loved all the attention she got. And you can tell too because she has been quite the drama queen this week!! :)

Thanksgiving Day
We went to Riley's Aunt Grace's house on Thanksgiving day. Anna Riley got passed around and loved all the attention. And of course she ate her fair share of Thanksgiving food! This girl is going to eat us out of the house!! :) I just love being with family...whether it is mine or his! We really are so blessed and have so much to be thankful for!!
(I did not take as many pictures as I normally do for some reason)

Granna and PawPaws
Anna Riley spent the night with my Mom and Dad last Saturday night. She has so much fun there and I'm glad that she will stay the night. Those are my favorite memories...spending the night at my grandparent's house, playing dominos and watching Hee Haw! haha. They took lots of pictures but I borrowed their cable and now can't find it so more pictures later. Thanks Mom and Dad for keeping her! :)
