Adventures of the Roberts Family: 10 months .... better late than never

I am obviously about 2 weeks late in updating the blog. I'm surprised I haven't started receiving hate mail. :) Not only do our photo sessions become increasingly more difficult, updating the blog does as well. My computer is from college and with all the pictures on here, it is ever so slow. Not an excuse, just saying.

Love those bright little eyes

The last month has been an exciting month. Our little princess continues to change daily, learning and doing more things, some good and others not so much. Crawling has added another layer of complexity to our lives for sure.

Is Sally outside?

I'm supposed to do something with these legs

The dishwasher is one of my favorite things

Such a happy girl helping Mama with dishes

Crawling was convenient to get to the tree

At 10 months she weighed 18.5 lbs and was 28.25 inches long.

Such a big girl

We had a wonderful Christmas. Living back in Indiana, made it a little less stressful, and allowed us to spend more time with everyone. In addition, just before Christmas, Jared locked the door in Pennsylvania for the last time and moved to Indiana to live with us! Kherington liked opening presents. She was move enthralled with the paper than what was in the boxes, but that was okay.

Bows were another favorite

Hey, I got a hippo!

Listening to one of our new books

Thanks Grandma and Pops for my lamb hat

Daddy likes my hippo stacker too

Caterpillars sure are tasty

Hey look! I got a cookie jar!

Daddy lovin' on Kherington

Berlin really thought K's reindeer was meant for her

We are going to have some major re-training to do

We have continued to try new foods. It is hard to believe our little girl eats SO much during the day. For example, yesterday she ate for breakfast 2 oz of pineapple that we sent to school, graham crackers which was the morning snack, then 6.5 oz of milk. Then for lunch she had 2 pieces of pizza, carrots and oranges in addition to another 4.5 oz of milk. Then her afternoon snack was veggie straws, topped off by a 4.5 oz bottle. What a little piggie!!

Despite this face, she really likes oranges

The remnants from a corn bread muffin

Nana and K with a great teether - a stalk of celery

We learned that babies should not have corn. They gave her some at school for lunch and boy did it cause problems. This led to me going to Kroger at 2 am one morning to buy prune juice. You sure get some funny looks buying prune juice at 2 am.

Our little Tylenol addict

We've gained some new teeth. I guess singing "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth," paid off. Finally K's top front teeth came through. Her poor little gums have been so swollen for so long.

"Blizzard" 2012

Kherington had her 9 month appointment. We were supposed to have it the day after Christmas, but it got cancelled because of the "blizzard," so Daddy took K while Mom was in Puerto Rico for work. She was in the 24th percentile for weight at 17 lbs and 12.8 oz, and was in the 24th percentile for height at 27 inches (although I think she was measured wrong), and her head circumference was in the 91st percentile at 46 cm.

Kherington went to visit Ed and Nancy (our first neighbors growing up)

Kherington really liked Faith's little car

Mid fall from standing

That's better

Figuring out this doll stroller

Playing on Nana's tablet

Nana and K playing in the water

We love the faucet, and getting wet!

Such a big girl

Took this picture for Aunt Jessica
I told K that she'd be mad at the "W" position

This little snowman has been our friend - he sings and plays drums

Pretty girl

Singing and beating the pacifier on the table

Kherington has her first friend at school, Mara. K and Mara are two of the oldest now in the room, so they are the troublemakers. Ms. Leslie said they go around to all the babies and steal their pacifiers. They also enjoy playing hide and seek together around the table.
