olivia is now 10 1/2mo old and i recently posted her routine on the easy board (6-12 mo) :
at 10 months this is Olivia's routine:
wake up time averages 6:30
7ish breakfast
8:30 bottle
9/9:15 down for nap
wakes either 45min later or sometimes does 1- 1.5 hrs
11/11:30 lunch
12:30/12:45 bottle
1:15 down for nap - generally sleeps 1:30-3pm but can go as long as 2.25 hrs and can start as late as 2pm (ETA: i started putting her down at 1pm this week because she is ill and very active and both were tiring her out- yesterday she did her first 2.25hrs nap in ages)
5/5:30 dinner
6:30 first offer bottle
6:45 or so bath
7:15 finish bottle and down for bed before 7:30
i detailed her increases in A time on the spirited baby sticky also on EASY. she seemed to incraese it every month from 4 1/2 mo onwards. always shortest A time in the morning and longest one is before bed (once we dropped the catnap she was up from 2:30/3 to bedtime and every so oftenif she has a bad day we end up having a late afternoon nap)
She does love to be outside and go for walks, but the rain has just been non-stop here, and we've been trapped in the house, which doesn't help.
i bet you can easily occupy her calmly for 15 min a day looking at the rain - tell her about the rain, the drops and just let her watch it - if you look at it from their perspective rain is fantastic - my 2.5 yo loves to play in the rain and get wet, olivia likies to watch it and touch it (different to regular stuff...) do you have a porch or any covered outside area she could sit outside and still be "in the rain" etc. we are lucky enough to have a covered deck so on rainy days the girls still play outside
