10 months old today!

10 months old!

Baby Jamie is 10 months old today! I can't believe it! It goes by so fast. His birthday will be here in only 2 months and I have already started planning the monkey-themed party!

He isn't walking yet. He is crawling everywhere! His favorite spots to crawl to are the stairs and out onto the deck if the back door is open! We are constantly chasing him or barricading him in! He can walk around the coffee table really well so I think he will be waking soon.

He is still putting EVERYTHING in his mouth. He has chewed the finish off the edges of the coffee table just a little bit. I finally ha to put crib railing protectors on so that he wouldn't ruin the wood on the crib! He has 4 teeth completely in on the top. And almost 3 teeth completely in on the bottom.

He is napping less during the day. He typically gets up around 6:30am and goes to be at 8:00pm. He LOVES bath time and thinks its funny when he is completely naked!

He is mostly in a good mood. He laughs when we tickle him or when I sing certain things to him. I like to sing Amazing Grace, 5 Little Monkeys, Old McDonald, Itsy Bitsy Spider, You Are My Sunshine, Down in the Valley, and Christmas songs since he was born just before Christmas.

He watches TV in the mornings while I get ready and loves Sesame Street, Curious George, The Cat in the Hat, and Sid the Science Kid.

He is very intrigued with phones, remotes, really anything electronic. He is drinking formula, juice, and some water. He eats baby food, baby cookies, and some adult foods here and there. He is wearing 12 month clothes right now but the are close to becoming to small due to the fact that he is so long!

Jamie and I are flying to Borger for Halloween weekend. Daddy is staying home to have a boys weekend at the gun range. Jamie is going to be a bat and I am working on getting a batgirl outfit together. We will be traveling to OKC for Thanksgiving and plan on staying home for Christmas.

I love you very much James Allen and am thankful every day that God sent you to us.

All my love,

Emily (Mommy)
