WEA at 10 Months

Well....here we are.....the double digit months.....(sigh).  Where are the days going?!  I blink and another month has passed me by.  I really am trying to savor these last baby days and watching him grow is so bittersweet.  So here he is, my little Walker at 10 months old.

Walker's 10 month milestones/achievements/tidbits:

~he is cruising around while holding onto furniture and he loves to push a chair around while walking

~while standing he is able to bend down to pick up an object without falling over

~he is still a biter so when he gets a firm "NO BITE" after chomping down on me he breaks down in tears.  I can tell he's going to be very sensitive to punishment down the road.  

~his new favorite spots to play are in my cabinets---welcome back messy tupperware zone.  

~he is actually able to play alone for several minutes as long as I am out of sight.  This has allowed me to prepare my morning cup of coffee and fix my breakfast without him attached to my hip.  

~he absolutely hates wearing socks and/or shoes.  This has made my cool morning runs very unproductive.  As soon as I get going, I have to stop to find the missing sock/shoe.  Now I'm on the search for some baby shoes that can't be pulled off.  I can only imagine how he'll be come hat and mitten weather.  

~he loves to drink water out of a sippy cup

~he still isn't very adventurous when it comes to eating and trying new foods.  He will only eat completely pureed and smooth fruits and veggies and his favorite, yogurt.  

~on average he still wakes up once during the night but I have had quite a few uninterrupted nights of sleep lately; unfortunately, that means an earlier wake up time.  I sure am looking forward to daylight savings time---I hate waking up when it's still dark outside.  
~he is quite the talker.  He is constantly babbling and he has even added a few more sounds to his vocabulary.

I sure do love this sweet, chunky, little man!  I've said it before and it still rings true today---he really is the happiest, sweetest, smiliest, most cuddly, squeezable, baby boy ever.  I'm so very thankful he's in our family!
