10 Months Old

I can't believe my baby is already 10 months old!! Here are 10 of his favorite things to do...1. Take his daddy for a walk to the park... he always has to lead the way!



2. Lately he's really been into making this face and saying "Oh Wow" at just about everything! His favorite things to do this at is when he hears an airplane, see's any type of animal (especially birds) and whenever he's playing with any of his toys or trying to get my attention (which is the rest of the day!!)


3. My little Mozart loves to play the piano...especially if his daddy is playing with him. Anyone who's seen him do this knows how particular he is about pressing the keys and making sure he goes up and down to make the different sounds!


4. This picture doesn't do it justice but this kid has learned how to climb things. I find him in the weirdest positions sometimes stuck on top of something because he's climbed up and can't get back down!! This newly acquired skill has made for a few really awesome bruises so far.


5. He's FINALLY a really good sleeper...well better now than he use to be! He still doesn't sleep all the way through the night but he's sleeping most of the way at least. He takes 2 naps a day a short one in the morning/early afternoon then another one in the late afternoon/evening. The later one is between 1-2 hours!! This is huge for me because he use to only nap for 30-45min tops!
6. John loves to eat and loves to eat a lot! His favorite foods are squash, sweet potato, pears, applesauce, grahm crackers, and anything and everything we are eating! He begs for our food no matter what it is we are eating. Sometimes I will give in but I still keep an eye on what he's eating so I can monitor how healthy his foods are. He still doesn't have teeth but he can eat just about anything with those powerful jaws of his!! By the way we just got him this new chair so we can all eat at the table together. He likes banging on the table begging for our food. Most of the time when we feed him he will randomly fall asleep when he's had enough! My sister can tell you the truth of this. Whenever she is on the Webcam with me and I am feeding him he almost always falls asleep. Most of the time in mid bite even!


7. John LOVES going to the park with his daddy. He especially loves the swings. He really doesn't like playing on the grass but he loves to play in the dirt and ends up trying to eat it and gets it all over himself. He loves watching other kids play and trys so hard to make new friends (and flirt with all the girls!) wherever he goes.



8. John is getting really good at walking all over the place. If he's holding onto something he'll walk around forever! He's started to let go of the furniture but he still doesn't quite have the balance to walk around on his own. He can stand up by himself without holding on to anything but he hasn't stood himself up yet. He just cruises around the house crawling as fast as lightning, walking along the furniture and getting into everything!




9. John absolutely loves the movie Cars and loves playing with his toy Lightning McQueen car his Uncle Sean gave to him. It makes sounds and lights up when you press the button but he prefers to make the sounds himself most of the time and push that car around the house everywhere he goes. He's a very vocal kid and is always making sounds or saying "Dada" "Daddy" "Mama" "Oh Wow" and a series of "Ba Ba Da Da Ya Ya" sounds and anything else he can come up with to make noise.




10. And finally my little Johnny is the sweetest little boy in the world and loves to be happy! He loves to play in the bathtub every night. This night his daddy was peeking around the corner then coming to get him. He was going nuts trying to climb up the walls to get away but he was having a blast. He loves to play, laugh, and brighten up the day. I love being able to play with him every day and watch him grow. He's SO CUTE!!

Happy 10 months old Baby Boy!!
