I use the word "monster" carefully, because lately my sweet princess has turned into one. She picked up this growling thing, that honestly can become annoying after awhile, but most of the time you just have to laugh at her and wonder where on earth she picked it up!
The kid is growing like a weed! I can't believe she's 10 months already, and that as I shop for Christmas I get to split her gifts with her birthday which follows close behind. She is quickly outgrowing her carseat, so she'll be getting a big girl one for Christmas. And my nightmare is happening....she taught herself to climb the two stairs between the kitchen and family room, and thinks she can cruise right down them, which is really scary! She wants so badly to walk, if you'll walk around with her you're her best friend. She hasn't quite figured out she can use the furniture to her advantage for this, you have to entice her with a cell phone or something else she wants. But she does use the furniture and sometimes less stable things (last night was a package of toilet paper) to stand up multiple times daily.
A couple weeks ago we went to her cousin Matthew's 1st birthday party, where she had fun playing with his toys and took notes on how to eat cake. As her Uncle Ben put it, "She didn't need to take notes on opening presents because she's a princess and has servants to do that for her." So true, but I don't think we'll have any problem there, once we show her that ripping paper is ok, she'll be in heaven.
