Well, since Ben was working insane 100hr+ weeks and I was living basically like a single mom, I decided to fly out to Utah a week early and spend some extra time with my fam. It was awesome. Between the good food, endless shopping, and abundance of willing babysitters, I was in Heaven! It was SO nice to be with my family and friends and not feel alone so much. It was especially cool for my mom to bond with Kaden, since she had more time now that she GRADUATED with her Master's Degree! woohoo! So proud of my mommy.
Time flew way too fast but it was reunited with my sweetheart in Texas again. I CANNOT WAIT to spend the summer in Utah! Ben and I have already made a huge bucket list for things we want to do and its going to be awesome! But enough about that, here is an update on the big 10 month old!!!
-Huge dancer!! Every time music plays he goes crazy!
-NO teeth but honestly those buggers could come any day now
-crawling super speedy fast everywhere and pulling himself up on all the furniture and even on walls
-knows how to climb up stairs
-walks when you hold his hands
-OBSESSED with balls: baseballs, footballs, you name it this kid is boy through and through!
-loves to hang upside down
-loves being thrown
-hates sitting on grass
-understands the words: momma, daddy, birdies, outside, no-no, night-night, ball, Look, and bye-bye
-says "Momma"
-Copies sounds that we make
-big brown eyes now--no longer blue!
-lots and lots of Blonde hair!
-Has learned how to play peek-a-boo
-loves going grocery shopping and looking around at everything
-transitioning now to just 2 naps per day
-loves popcorn, blueberries, hummus, pudding, breastmilk popsicles, watermelon, and peas
-refuses baby food 99% of the time
-loves to chew on giant carrots and cucumbers
-loves showers, baths, and swimming
-loves reading books and watching baby einstein
-obsessed with wheels-car wheels, stroller wheels, etc.
-social butterfly, loves to play with all other babies and kids
-a big flirt, smiles and coos at strangers everywhere
-will give a "kiss-kiss" and pucker his lips to be kissed
-when he wants your attention he turns his head to look at you upside down--hard to explain but honestly the cutest thing in the world!
We are getting so close to one year that it breaks my heart! The next few months are going to be CRAZY as we move to Utah for awhile, then Oregon, then Florida, then back to Texas for all of Ben's away rotations. Wish us luck, it'll be a crazy roller-coaster ride!
