Tory Update - Ten Months

      Here are lots of pics of Tory's tenth month. She continues to master the art of climbing, and is now learning to get down from things too....She is also good at wiggling out of your arms when you are holding her.....Another "cool trick" is standing up from a squating position without holding on to anything. She can stand for a good ten seconds before falling down.

     She LOVES the water....she tries to climb into the sink when we're washing her hands...... She got to experience the ocean for the first time. She wasn't at all scared of the waves or bothered by the freezing cold water....We discovered the toilet when someone left the door open. Of course the hands went right in before Mommy came and spoiled the fun.

     We got a new bike seat and helmet and have been enjoying bike rides around the neighborhood, and at the boardwalk.    

 We visited the zoo. She made friends with a goat....liked the horses and birds and the large kitty, but the monkeys freaked her out a little. The zoo had a merry go round and a small train....that was fun.

     We went to a carnival. There was a lot for her to look at. She was bouncing and pointing at everything. She rode a ferris wheel for the first time. It was a great view of the fireworks and she thought the lights were cool.....

  

Awesome new Toy.....Disney loves it too.
