10 Months... getting closer to your birthday!

Little Endsley,

You are developing such a sassy personality! I love it! I love how much you interact with us now. You are just so much FUN! But can we please keep you this little? Please? No more growing up.

I am now slaving away making all of the decorations for your birthday party. Seriously. I am a slave to this stuff. Every night when you go to bed, I get out all of the craft materials and start making something else. Some nights I dread this. Some nights I love it. Currently I'm making all of the invitations for our friends and family. It is time consuming! Holy moly there are so many little parts. After I finished the very first one, I was ecstatic with the way they looked. They could not be cuter. While my hands hurt and I am getting less sleep than I used to, I'm so very glad that I am making everything on my own.

I think the best part about these invites was getting to take your photos for them. I made you a tutu, grabbed some props, and we took to you Old Settlers park to snap some photos for your invites. Man - was that fun! You were so smiley and pleased as punch to be the center of attention. Your Uncle Danny took the photos for us with his fancy schmancy camera. He did such an amazing job. I still wonder why he wont start his own business!

Don't worry, I have saved the tutu for you to look at one day. It's so poofy! You turned away from us at point and started crawling away and all we saw was a ball of pink tulle. It was funny!

So, aside from birthday preparations - what are you doing this month?

Well apparently you are doing a lot of growing up! Because sometimes you prefer to sleep ALONE! Since you were born you have always fallen asleep with me. Now you think you're hot stuff because you push me away and fall asleep in your crib. I cried! I love my baby snuggles. Luckily (I think?) for me, this only happened a handful of times. 

You also blow raspberries at us. I love it.

You try to dance. It is hilarious. You hear music and you kinda start bobbing along to it.

You also try and put your shoes on, but you can't quite get there yet!

You got your first balloon. Which is a really big deal considering there's a helium shortage and you may never actually see (or at least remember) what a balloon is. We got it after we walked to Sonic together.

You went to your first ever crawfish boil! But you were still a little too young to try any. Don't worry, next year I will definitely give you some!

You had your first Easter! You picked up a few eggs at the Easter Egg Hunts we went to and you loved it. Your Grandma Berry and Grandma Julie both got you your very own Easter basket filled with fun things! Grandma Berry got you some clothes, a bunny, and your daddy's favorite book from when he was little. Grandma Julie got your a duck and bunny puppet, some eggs, and toys. You loved them both.

We haven't had you measured or weighed this past month, but rest assured you're growing fabulously! You're still in a size 3 diaper and are wearing 9 and 12 month clothing.

Love you,
Mama
