Happy 10 months Noah!

He’s so freakin cute!!! At 10 months:

• Still in size 3 Pampers Cruisers
• Weighs 24.2 pounds (I’m too lazy to try and figure out how  many ounces that is!)
• Wearing 12-18 month clothing
• Sleeps through the night…we are still following the bath, bottle, book routine and it works like a charm! I don’t even remember that last time we had to get up in the middle of the night! He barely even cries when we lay him down for the night!
• Goes to bed around 7pm every night and wakes up around 6am

• Has 6 teeth! With the most ADORABLE little gap between the top two!
• FINALLY started drinking out of a sippy cup with the help of his nursery lady at church. We are working on completely weaning off the bottle.
• We are working on the transition from baby food to table food. For breakfast he likes cheese grits and strawberry Nutrigrain bars. For lunch and dinner, the only table food he will eat enough of to get full is rice and refried beans. So we are trying to at least get him to eat #3 baby food, but he’s not too fond of that either.

• New snacks include Apple Jacks, apple slices, and cheese
• Knows how to drink out of our cups!
• He has taken ONE step! I am so proud! And he is also standing alone for longer and longer! I think he will be walking by his birthday for sure!

• Still taking two two hour naps a day, sometimes one four hour nap (at school, never at home!)
• Eczema is still present and a little worse than normal because it’s winter. We are still trying our best to control it with 2% hydrocortizone cream.
• Noah has officially found his package and MUST check on it at every diaper change and bath. Such a man.

• Can say “Dada”, “Mama”, “Beh” which means Bella, and “hey” and knows the meaning of each word. He has also started repeating things we say! I was changing his diaper and knocked over his lotion and said “dangit!” then Noah said “day ih!” and smiled the biggest smile! Oops!

• He loves to ‘help’ me fold clothes! It’s his new favorite thing!

Only two more months until Noah’s first birthday! I can’t believe how fast the past year has flown by! I am in full force party planning mode and I can’t wait to have everything come together!

Noah, we love you SO much and are so proud of you!
