10 months

Ethan is 10 months old. (This is the closest I have been to posting a month update on the right date). He is so much fun these days, learning new tricks everyday and showing so much personality. He is observant just like daddy in new settings but at home he is all smiles and babbles. He has a lot of energy and wants to be outside always. This month has been full of fun changes.

Clothes: mostly 9-12 months or 12 month clothes. Some 6-12 month things fit. Clothing runs in so many different sizes.

Nursing: 4 times a day as he has been for a couple months. He is so much faster now too which is fun.

Food: Ethan loves food and went from only having puréed food to wanting mostly pieces of food this month. He has tried all sorts of new foods too. He loves banana, mums and Cheerios the most. He has tried chicken, turkey burgers and beans this month and likes some spice in his food. He also loves peas and blackberries. For veggies he has had green beans, sweet potato and squash. Fruits he's had melon., honey dew melon, strawberries, mango, raspberries and blueberries.

Activity: Ethan crawls fast and everywhere. He pulls up on anything he can find and cruises around the house. He stands by himself and goes from sitting to standing unassisted. He seems to be close to walking but can get around so fast crawling that walking doesn't seem necessary yet.

Sleep: we try to get in two naps a day at least a couple days a week and on the weekend the other days we go for a long nap either in the morning or afternoon. Bedtime routine starts at 7:30 with the goal of bed by 8:30/8:45. Either he is up or we encourage him to wake up by 7:15 in the morning.

Teeth: Ethan has 4 teeth. Two bottom and two top. The first top tooth came in right after we got home from Virginia. The second one came in yesterday. These two were not as painful as the bottom two as far as we know.

We love you buddy and enjoy seeing you grow up.
