Penelope Mae month 10

Penelope mae is ten months old! All I can think is that in less than two months she will be a year old!! I have never felt so in denial with any of my babies before. I see her as muuuch younger, in part due to her teeeeeny self!

Penelope is 12lbs 9 ounces at ten months 15 days old (today)!! She has still never been on the charts.
We noticed that Penelope stopped getting any taller about 2 months or so ago. She is roughly the same height as when she was 6 months old, and some, but not much heavier than then.
Penelope still fits into 3-6 month old clothing. She has worn the same 3-6 month outfits for 5 months! I am getting tired of the same stuff, but I don't buy any more of this size, because I keep thinking that any day now she will grow into her 6 month stuff.

Penelope started putting things into her mouth to taste/ gum them about a month ago (9 months) she doesn't eat much of it, but clearly enjoys it some. Total a day she probably takes less than an ounce in a 24 hour period by mouth. The rest is all by feeding tube.

Penelope used to be the most amazing sleeper EVER!!! Now she's just Okay..She goes down for the night at 7pm. She now wakes between 6-645 and goes back down for her morning nap at roughly 9 depending on when she wakes. (we try to go down 2-2.5 hours after wake time) She usually sleeps about an hour and 20 minutes in the morning. Then she goes back down for her second nap at about 1pm, and sleeps for about an hour. I time Piper and Penelope's naps in the afternoon, so I can get some down time.

  • She loves suckers, and anytime her sisters have one, she will shreek and flap until someone gets her one.

  • She never bares weight on her feet/legs
  • Not a fan of hats, or headbands.. Not that that stops me!

I am so in love with her that often times I try to get her attention, or make her smile, and she sees me (I know you do!!) but she ignores me and tries to look at something else. She will holler out her pterodactyl screech when she doesn't want me to bother her. Speaking of her being bothered. Chloe just adores her! She is so good with baby P! It is so sweet. They have always had a great bond. Somethimes Chloe will carry her around too much or be in her face just a tad much, and Penelope has no problem telling her off. She has found her voice to let us know her likes and dislikes!

Penelope has a natural pout/ duck lip look. We think it's cute! She has always had swollen looking top gums, and when people see her they exclaim that her top teeth are coming in, although they are not. She has pretty curled dark eyelashes, and blue eyes.

We just adore our Penelope mae!
