10 month stat

I can't believe it but she is 10 months already. It two months she will be a year old. I had a break down yesterday. I decided it was time to try something different with Mackenzie's sleeping. She has been for about a month now only sleeping for like 30 mins during the day and sometimes only once a day. It has been really exhausting and I knew I had to do something. Today she slept til 9 am and then I kept her up til about 1:30 she slept til 3:30 and then went down at 7. I know she is still suppose to be taking two naps and even though I only have one child I believe every child is different. From the very beginning Mackenzie has always showed that she is not interested in sleeping nearly as much as I have seen other kids sleep. She was in a great mood today and went to sleep for the first time in three weeks at 7 o'clock. Hopefully this week will be like today.

At 10 months she is pretty much eating anything and everything excepts nuts. She is starting to get more independent with her eating and drinking. she can now drink out of her sippy cup with the straw and she will pick up food on her own now for the past couple of months. She loves eating mum mum's and puffs. We have tried the original, vegetable and strawberry with the mum mum's and for the puffs we have tried apple mango and strawberry kiwi whole grain. The mum mums' are great for keeping her busy while we are driving in the car. She has my addiction to ice cream already. obviously, I only give her a few bits but the minute she see's me pulling it out she starts to kick and laugh and smile. It is the cutest thing ever. The last ten months have gone by so fast. I don't want to wish time away but I can't wait to celebrate her first birthday.
