The Countdown to ONE and Easter

Holy Cow, Molly is 10 Months!  This means party preparations for her first birthday are in full force and time for me to get overly emotional about my little baby growing up so fast!

We've had a fun month with a couple "firsts".   Here is what we have been up to lately..

From Left to Right:  Molly's school pic that we forgot to buy in time so this is a cropped one of the proof ha, Molly's first meal on our deck
(yay for nice weather), Just looking adorable, Another one just looking precious=)
From Left to Right: Watching the Masters with Daddy, Helping Mom and Dad pay the bills,
Getting kisses from Mommy, Aunt Chrissy came to play=) 
Last weekend we went to the Atlanta Dogwood Festival at Piedmont Park.  We got to spend some time with the Joyner Family, Smith Family, and Ang.  It was a gorgeous day.  Here are some pictures at the festival.

The little ladies hanging out in the dirt.  The both loved eating the sticks;)
My People
Me and my mini

And now for 10 Month Photos and Easter which happened to be on the same day!

Hard to get me to stay still these days


Look Mom "no hands"!


Being 10 months old is fun!
Now for some Easter festivities:
Molly with all of her Easter goodies
Molly and Daddy=)
Trying to convince her to look at the camera
When she finally looked at the camera it was with this pouty face haha
Time for brunch with the Freaney family
Posing outside the restaurant and looking adorable
Attempting a family shot....could be better...could be worse;)
These two were cracking me up.  The cutest little customers I ever did see.  
To top off a fabulous day, we decided to give the swings a try!  She was a little apprehensive but mostly loved it=)
A few other milestones for this month:
-Finally Molly's first tooth broke through (just a few days ago).  I read that usually babies get their front teeth first.  Molly's first tooth is her right canine and it looks like her left canine isn't too far behind.  She may be looking like a baby vampire soon=)
-As evident in her 10 month photos, Molly is able to let go of furniture and stand all by herself for a few seconds at a time.  We got her a push toy last week to see if she would be able to walk with some added support.  I think she could do it but she doesn't seem to get the concept quite yet.
-Molly is still eating like a champ.  Mike isn't shy when it comes to seasoning our food and she just gobbles it right up!
-Molly loves to clap and shake her head "nonono".  We are still working on shaking her head "yes" and saying "mama".  She still has a strong preference to saying "dada".  I think Mike is paying her on the side with puffs.

As you can see, it's been a busy month and the next month looks like it might be even busier.  Molly's first flight is next week....wish us luck!
