10 months
Since my camera is broken (more on that later). I took Malia's monthly photos with my ipad - which kind of sucked. But I here are her latest and greatest:
*Eating every 4 hours and still EBF. With going to Mexico for a week, I have finally succombed to the fact that Malia doesn't want to nurse anymore. Breaks my heart, but she still nurses 2x a night - which I am hanging onto as long as possible. I am pumping all day and she drinks out of the bottle and sippy.
*She has MASTERED the sippy cup. Shocking I will admit. It took Jackson at least a month to get the hang of it, but not little miss. She is rocking the sippy cup better than any 10 month old I've ever seen.
*Eating mostly table food at this point. Some meals we cook, I'll grind it up - but she prefers feeding herself.
*Wearing size 5 diapers.
*Wearing 18 month clothing.
*Says, "Mama/Nama" when she's hungry.
*Says, "Dadda" when she's tired.
*Has the sweetest most contagious giggles when big brother gives her raspberries on her cheeks.
*She crosses her feet all the time. Such a lady.
*She hums every time she eats table food.
*Has ZERO desire to crawl or pull herself up.
*Went to the aquarium for the first time and we have now found her favorite place in the whole world.
*Taking 2 (1-2 hour naps a day) and sleeping in 4 hour stretches at night.

9 months!
9 months in, 9 months out. Miss Malia has been with us for 18 months now and what a blessing she is. At her appointment today, her pediatrician even said, “Well, she’s got quite the personality already!” I know that this little girl is going be quite the little sassy pants….but she will still melt our hearts with that cute little dimpled smile.
Stats:
21lbs, 3oz. (90-95th percentile)
28 inches long (95th percentile)
Latest and greatest:
*Still exclusively breastfed and nursing every 4 hours….even through the night….every 4 hours (SHOOT ME!)
*Just started on table foods and is doing great!
*Wearing 12-18 month clothing.
*Claps and waves hello
*Says, “Dada and Nana”
*Loves to scream. Loves it.
*In her big-girl carseat (GOODBYE INFANT CARSEAT!)
*Loves having her nose aspirated. Weirdo!

Seahawks babe!
One of Malia’s Christmas gifts this year was this super cute Seahawks outfit. She got it from the Seahawks #1 fan, my step-brother Tyson and his wife, Chi.
I had to share how adorable Malia looks in it!
