10 months baby!

My sweet Audy is 10 months old now...
She has officially been out of me longer than in me. Crazy to think how much she has learned and grown in 10 short months!

on our apartment door this summer!

Her updates:

 -One of her friends Jane(7 months). They have matching outfits!

 -Selfies while getting ready!

-Has a ton of hair now and it is starting to curl! yay for her daddy's hair!


-has a contagious smile!

-still only 2 bottom teeth

-says da da, ma ma, la la, na na
-pounds it!

-now stands in her play pen after naps

-army crawls everywhere, but has been getting around doing the bear crawl as of late



-got a new toy and adores it. Her Leopard. And it was my cousin Matt's birthday a couple days ago. I tried to do a few videos to wish him a happy birthday... it didn't turn out so well. WAY too distracted!

-walks along the couch, wall, highchair, bed, dresser handles...anything she can reach really! She also crawls up the sliding back door to look outside


-now stands up in the tub constantly. Can't keep the kid in the water anymore! lol
-Loves swimming and being outside the best!

-eats everything Jason and I do now (besides really hard things like chips etc. The poor girl only has two teeth but does remarkably well with them)


-noodles (stroganoff, kraft dinner), peaches, cheese buns, Cherrios, Ritz crackers green beans are some of her favourite (3 meals a day with snacks. 3-4 bottles a day-morning, nap time and bed) Doesn't LOVE eating though. Would rather be playing.
-so smiley and always happy!

-size 3 diapers during the day and size 4 at night (for sheer liquid volume... size 3 at night doesn't cut it anymore)

-Mostly 3-6 month clothes. dabbling into some 6-9 months

-weighed her and she is 16.5lbs (10th %ile) now. Growing like a weed!

-sleeps 12 hours straight at night usually 7pm-7:30am...and as of late has been doing 14-15 hours (7:00pm-9:30/10:00am) and this momma is loving it! It means she doesn't have her morning nap because she sleeps through it, but I am loving the extra sleep!-I know you are thinking, "Don't be ridiculous Britt, you get tons of sleep with her sleeping so long." But I wait up for Jason to get home every night and stay up till midnight thirty most nights before I head to bed. Soooo this sleeping in thing is great! 


-Plays peak-a-boo!

-She LOVES her best friend Blaise Oler! Blaise is 2 and is infatuated with Autumn and vic a versa! Whenever they see each other they get so excited and run to each other...ok, Blaise runs, Autumn crawls!

9 months

Autumn is now 9 months old!

Autumn update:
-Still just has 2  bottom teeth
-sits up on her own and just a couple days ago I got her from her nap and she was sitting up ready to get out. When did she grow up?
-size 3 diapers
-3-6 month clothes
-so I thought I would loose my little jumping bean once we put the jolly jumper away, but Autumn likes to jump even without it! I stabilize her and she jumps like crazy!

-likes to walk with assistance everywhere. She is really stable too.

-enjoys brushing her teeth-after mommy brushes them first ;)


-does laundry with mom and she is soooo helpful-insert sarcasm!




-her first Canada day was awesome!

-crawls around like crazy
-probably 16lbs by now since last month she was 15lbs 2oz

-her giggle is contagious! She does this cheezer of a grin with really shows off her bottom teeth! lol

-she is the happiest baby in the world

-loves to eat whole fruits and veggies-especially gnawing down on a strawberry and getting the juices EVERYWHERE!

-is a social bug! As soon as she is done napping she is right by our door wanting out. She goes to Auntie Liz's first and scratches on her door until she opens up! Love that kid!

-Her hair is getting SUPER long and goes curly when wet! I hope that is a sign that she is going to get her daddy's gorgeous locks!

-has 2-3 bottles a day (morning, bedtime and nap times)and eats 4 meals throughout the day with snacks

-she pinches things with her index and thumb really well

-loves playing the "drums" (pots and pans)


-enjoys the spray park and going for walks with momma




 -she likes to eat in style! lol


 -Autumn can't wait for bath time every day. When she hears the water running she gets uber excited!

 -Autumn has figured out how to open drawers... not truly loving that! lol




 -Fun when daddy dresses her for the day! Daddy thought he was funny for putting the hood up. Autumn couldn't stop laughing! lol

 -had her first official boo-boo yesterday. She was playing out in the hall and I think she was trying to get herself up on a ball and it came out from under her. :( Smacked her head on the edge of the door.





 -Whenever Autumn sees a guy in an orange shirt she says, "da da." I find it incredibly adorable!

 -She has her moments! lol




 -Autumn has a boyfriend. His name is Ryder. He always wants to give her hugs and kisses... can't blame the kid!

 As the Jason and I, we are doing real well. The summer has been really successful and so much fun. We get to see family lots (some are in the city) and lots of friends!

My parents came up this week and I had a ton of fun shopping and catching up with them.

2 Sundays ago, we went to Sylvan lake to visit Jason's parents who were at a Scout function volunteering. It was nice to spend the day together and walk around the camp. Steven, Jason's nephew was there as well. I have missed all of them so much.

The summer is already almost over and I am sad to leave this great group of girls. We have had so much fun and next summer can't come soon enough.
