Mini Bunches: 10 Months

Two posts in one week?!?!  That’s just crazy talk.  So call me crazy.  Earlier this week you got to see what Mini B was up to during her ninth month of life.  Now, let’s take a look at what she was up to during her 10th month.

One major change should be immediately obvious . . . hair!  She’s finally sporting a little more on top.  Still not enough to overcome being called a boy by strangers each and every time we go out, but we’re getting there.

And just like my last couple monthly updates, here’s a rundown of what our Mini Bunches was up to during her 10th month:

The month started out with Mini B’s first trip to Springdale Farm (which you may remember from our goat hoax).  Of course, we may have to reconsider that whole gettin-a-goat thing . . .

Mini B is obsessed with tags.  And what’s amazing is that she knows the fake tags (like those on Taggies toys) from the real tags with words on them.  Not sure what it is about tags, but maybe it’s genetic?  I may or may not have had a similar obsession as a wee one.

Her other big obsession?  Our iPhones.  She has a lot of people to talk to ya’ know.

Mini B celebrated her first St. Patrick’s Day.  Hollah!

And she also continued practicing for her American Idol audition.

She took a break from exercising her pipes in order to take her first trip to the local children’s museum (Explore & More in East Aurora).

Oh, did I mention that she learned to read?  Sunday mornings are her favorite . . .

Mini B celebrated her first Easter.

It was short lived.

She also found her voice . . . this picture needs her added soundtrack of squeals and shrieks.

And then of course Mini B continued to rack up her frequent flyer miles with a trip to Florida where she got some qt with Mr. Squishy . . .

And they got along well except for one ill-fated fight over a water bottle.  Room full of toys and these two want the water bottle . . .

Not only did Mini B get quality time with Mr. S, but she also got to see some friends from NY who were also enjoying a little fun in the sun.  Yep, Mr. & Mrs. Rockstar were rockin’ out with their own little fam . . .

And guess who else made an appearance . . . chickie chickie yeah!

Living the Florida life.  Not too shabby, eh?

“The ocean is big.”  Those were his exact words.

We had a great time with Mr. S, Uncle J, and Aunt Doodles–thanks guys!

I seriously can’t get enough of these two.

Once we wrapped things up on Amelia Island, it was time to head to New Smyrna Beach to visit Mini B’s other little cousin . . . but first, a stop at MO’s place (more on that next week):

After a quick visit, it was time to move on.  Of course, with two babies in the car, we pretty much took the tortoise route.  When one baby slept, the other one cried.  Awesome.  Apparently we forgot to tell the kiddos that we were on vacation.  But either way, we made it and look who was ready for the paparazzi . . .

She showed the new kids on the block how beach time is done.

The first time touching the Atlantic Ocean for both of them . . .

Mini B was lucky enough to celebrate her 10 month birthday with her two littlest cousins.  Such fun!

Before we returned home, we took one last early morning walk on the beach.  Sigh.  Sleepy little beach town–how we love you!

So there you have it.  Her 10th month.  St. Patrick’s Day, Easter, Florida, cousins, sun, sand, and surf.  Good times.
