10 months

10 months. 10 months. 10 MONTHS! Wow. Very soon this little boy will be turning 1 and it is becoming more clear than ever, just how quick this year is going by. In 2 very short months, you will be turning a year old. I am so excited to start planning your birthday party! This last month you/r/re:

• have taken a few steps by yourself! It's only a matter of time before we're chasing you around. 
• brother has taken more of an interest in you, and likes playing with you. I think it's because there is so much more you can do, and he excited to be brothers with you.
• love dancing, and you laugh the whole time you do it
• Nessa's favorite. Don't tell Coleden ;) She adores you, and even lets you pull her ears, something she NEVER let Cole do. She's become very patient in her old age.
• favorite foods: pancakes/waffles, lima beans, grapes, oyster crackers, and string cheese
• added "hey" to your vocabulary, plus you've started to imitate a lot of sounds!
• have 5 teeth, working on numbers 6 & 7.
• eyes have not turned brown. I think the blue might be sticking around!
• skin has become super dry, especially around your mouth, we've tried explaining that if you'd stop sucking your fingers, you wouldn't have as much of an issue with this, but you won't listen (hehe). But really, winter is kind of kicking our butts right now.
• love your Cabbage Patch Doll, and we finally have a name for him (we lost the little birth certificate that they come with, and I can't remember the name he was given), Phillip. His name is Phillip. Cole named him, I don't know where he heard that name, but I think he looks like a Phillip!
