{She Said} 10 Months Down

Clothing Size: 12 Mos

Starting to eat table food- loves puffs and cheerios, pretty good with meat, slowly warming up to veggies

Standing on own for long stretches.

Talking/ babbling more and more.

Chews on EVERYTHING- especially loving anything wooden with paint on it: window sills, crib, tables, etc

More and more personality coming out- very focused once he gets his mind on something.

LOVES his daddy!

Gives kisses- still with his mouth open really wide.

Has had a pretty healthy month other than the ever enduring congestion

Bed time: between 7:30 and 8:00 PM; Wakes between 6:30 and 7:00 AM

Claps all the time. Gets really excited when others join in.

Enjoys listening to “Elmo Sings to Zachary” in the car

Loves to bounce and/or jump up and down

Will take shaky steps if you walk in front of him holding his hands

Gives hugs.

Reaches out for people

Waves and will occasionally add a bye bye

Starting to learn the concept of sharing- will offer others bites of his food.

Smiles really big when he sees people he recognizes (or if a stranger smiles really big at him).

Starting to understand the purpose of the sippy cup.

Down to just three bottles a day.

Mimics most words you say to him. Said “purple” the other day as Matt was describing a block to him.

Crawls faster than a speeding bullet

He’s literally like magic...
