Happy 10 Months!

Austin is 10 months old today!

He is making great progress and seems to change or do something new every week. He is moving around great. I don't think it will be long before he is walking. That boy has no fear. Sometimes when he stands he will be holding onto the couch. He wants to get down to the floor, he will think about it and look back and forth. He just lets go and does a belly flop onto the floor. I look and think he is going to start crying, but he doesn't. He just gets up and crawls to where he wants to go!! A little tough guy, lol. We call him our busy bee!!

He is eating more solid foods now and snacking on cheese and the puffs - loves those! They are a lifesaver when we are out and about. If he gets fussy he eats puffs and loves them then he is all smiles.

When he gets upset and fussy he babbles and says MAMA and BABA. This morning while I was getting ready in the bathroom for work, Austin was fussing at my feet for attention. Jason went to get his bottle and started to Call Austin and said " I have your BABA." Austin didn't hesitate to go see Daddy and drink his morning bubba. We are working on DADA. Also we are working on his shapes, colors and people. He is still loving to watch his morning programs on Disney.

Sleeping is going great. We eat dinner at 6, bath at 7 and bed by 7:30-8. We put him in there and he doesn't fuss anymore. He may wake up a couple times, but he stays in there until 7am!! YAY!! We are all sleeping great again. I do go and check on him a few times and sometimes I am greeted by little eyes peeking over the crib and have to run out or hide. I think he is a light sleeper like Mom!

He is really growing, this weekend he started to wear some 18 month clothes! They are kind of big, but a good enough size to wear. 2 weeks ago he was 21 lbs 4 oz.

So that is whats going on in the world of Austin. Stay tuned!!

I am so happy he is doing so well Dawn. he sounds like a strong little guy. And it is so fun when you realize they are understanding words too.
He is a perfect size too. How long do you think he is? Today Nicholas was 20# with clothes on and he is about 30 inches. And he is 1 tomorrow!
They grow fast!
