Kiera is 10 months old!

Kiki (tom told me to change the spelling) is 10 months today! She has grown up sooo much this past month, i'm glad, kiki has not been an easy baby and i am ready for her to grow up alittle bit! Some things about our little keeks (halle and tom's new nickname for her):
-last week she got one upper tooth (bringing the count to 3). She was up nearly every hour at night and would scream so hard that she screamed herself hoarse! I didn't know she was cutting a tooth, so it wasnt' till it popped through that I finally gave her tylenol and she is back to sleeping in 3 hour blocks (will I ever get a baby that sleeps well at night???)
-the most often comment people say to me about kiki (besides, "she's got alot of hair") is commenting on how fast she can crawl, which makes halle start crawling and halle can hardly keep up with her!
-kiera can climb up the stairs, then sits at the top and then turns around and backs down them, she can also climb out of the pool and can back into the water. kiera is a climber, she can climb the rock wall at the playground, she can climb onto the top of the little tikes table in the kitchen, the ottoman, and up halle's stool and onto the counter (of course we didn't let her stay up there and now we have to keep the stool folded up). she can climb the toddler ladder at mcdonalds and go down the slide
-she loves the pool and has no fear!
-she can shake her head no if you do it to her. if you stick your tongue in and out she will do it back to you. and make that tongue in and out sound, lalala
-she loves to roll away when i'm changing her, make her body as stiff as a board when i'm buckling her into her carseat and scream and pull at her clothes for me to know that she enjoys her nakedness.
-she bounces to music, loves singing or looking at books. she can out eat halle most of the time. (tom was shocked the other day while looking for leftover pizza, i said there were no left overs. "we ate a large pizza!?!" halle had 2 slices (in the car while i was bringing the pizza home, kiera had an entire slice , i had 2 and tom had 3, yup, our family can officially eat a large pizza!
-kiera lays her head on your chest if you say hug, hug! she loves to hear herself scream. she has little fear, but will cry if she hears halle cry.
-she smiles at everyone who looks at her and loves attention from strangers. she lets most people hold her but buries her head into me if strange people try to hold her. she thinks halle is soo funny and loves her attention!
she can stand up alone without holding onto anything and can take a few steps if you reach your arms out to her (but falls into your arms, still pretty wobbly)
kiki goes up the stairs and looks back at you every few steps and smiles , if you say "i'm gunna get you" she screams and darts up a few more steps, then does it again

anyways, you probably got bored half way though this little 10mon tribute but i want to record some things about her each month since i'm not so great at keeping up on her babybook! We love our kiki so much!
