10 Months Old

10 Months old! My littlest one is learning new things every day and is becoming more playful and expressive too :) Just in the last week he's learned how to wave goodbye, nod his head yes, shake his head no, and clap his hands. He's very dramatic with his "no" and moves his whole body from side to side it's really quite cute. He's a crawling machine and getting into everything. His favourite things are non toys of course like the remote control, door stoppers, and pushing the button on the carbon monoxide detector. Those things earn him a stern "no" and he gets stopped quickly, but he's getting fast and tries to get right back into the trouble again. When he's told off he gets a big bottom lip and starts to cry, he really tries everything in his power to get what he wants. 

Grayson still sleeps with us and has been waking a few times a night lately. I think it's his teeth bothering him. He had been waking once a night which was great, but now we are struggling in the sleep dep't. 

He eats three meals a day, two snacks and fed on demand, on average six times over 24 hours. It sounds like he eats a lot but he doesn't really have a big appetite. At his Dr's appointment last week he weighed 16lbs 11oz (5th percentile), was 74cm in length (75th percentile) and his head circumference was 42.5 cm (5th percentile).

He's starting to look older, just look at how much hair he's gotten! It's starting to get a bit curly & the front is quite long, it's starting to get a bit difficult to work with. I'm afraid his bangs are going to be in his eyes soon.

he's not always happy. I think he's working on some teeth, he's been whinier and wetter lately :)

he sure loves his ch@@rios

he's cute even covered with drool:)

Only two months until his first birthday! where has the time gone? I can hardly believe I'm thinking about his birthday already.
