Getting over the flu and a little behind on life, but our little man was 10 months last week on the 9th. No check up this month but I know he is large and large. His thighs are unbelievable. This month he started eating yogurt, bananas and a little bit of what we have for dinner each night plus his regular meat & veggies (and cereal with fruit in the mornings). He figured out how to get into sitting position on his own and actually does a little bit of legit crawling as opposed to the army crawling he normally does. He also started pulling himself up to standing position and is real proud of himself.
He is waking up once most nights and the time is never really predictable- sometimes it is 3:30, one time it was 12:30 and other times it isn't until 6:30 and he wants to go back to sleep until about 8. He isn't nursing well at bedtime so I think he wakes up to do that. He hasn't really been that great at nursing at all these days because he is so BUSY! He wants to climb all over me or the chair I am sitting in or get down and explore rather than nurse. He still has eight teeth- two more have been on the verge of coming through for quite some time now. Thankfully he didn't get the flu but he did have a bug for a couple of days before I got the full-on flu. He loves his Daddy and says Da Da all. the. time. He wants him at all times and even cried for him last night before going to bed because I tucked him in for the first time in a few nights. He is all boy and all about his Daddy (not that I can blame him!!) and even has a little dance move I am sure we can attribute to his Daddy as well. He shakes his upper body and head back and forth until we join in! Ha! He is a handful.
Other recent pictures of him...
Lots of time outside when the weather is warm like it has been & tons of fun with Henry (Jennifer & Chris's second)
They followed each other all over the downstairs at Jennifer's house while we oohed and ahhed over the new baby girl, Emma. They shared lots of cheerios and gave the dog her fair share. I think Porter thought all of Henry's boy toys were the coolest- he is used to playing with princesses. Henry loved giving Porter his paci and Porter loved spitting it back out for him.
And how could I forget? This month his biggest sister taught him how to open and shut his hands for the little "Open Shut Them" Song. This is him with them shut. (He is pretty proud of himself.)
He also made it up the two stairs from our den. His Daddy left the room and that was enough to get him going I guess.
