10 Months


Oh, this tiny little man! He is such a happy little guy. These are his stats at 10 months:
Height: 28 inches (31%)
Weight: 19.5 pounds (23%)
I seriously can't believe how tiny he is. Luke was like a giant man at this point in the 80/90%. Doctor says his proportions are great so no worries about his growth. He loves his food and his milk and gets plenty of both. His favorite food is blueberries. Since they have been in season he has been eating lots of blueberries. He also loves cheese, black beans, crackers, quesadillas, pizza, avocado. He pretty much eats anything we give him. He doesn't really eat baby food anymore. We try to cut up whatever we are eating and he uses his little baby gums to smash it up! This kid still has NO TEETH!! Luke had 6 teeth at this age so that is totally different for us. The only thing we have found hard for him to eat is apples. He can even eat chicken and sausage with his little gums. We are feeding him completely differently than we did Luke in the hopes that we will produce a less picky eater this time around. He is still nursing 4 times a day. 

He is still on the move like a crazy man. He just switched from the army crawl to a normal baby crawl. He is pulling up on everything and want to stand more and more every day. I have a feeling that he will be walking with the next month or two. He is SO FAST. He loves to chase after cars, balls and mostly his brother. He wants to be on the move and it is adorable. I usually find him standing in his crib after naps. 

This is his sleeping schedule:
7:30 AM Wake
10/10:30 AM Nap
11:30/12:00 PM Wake 
2:30/3:00 PM Wake
7:30 PM Bath time
8:00 PM Bed time 
He is such a great sleeper and sleeps through the night like a champ. I seriously can't even remember the last time he woke up in the night. He really only likes to sleep in his crib. He doesn't like to cuddle or be held when he is tired or sad. He just wants to sleep on his tummy in his crib in the dark with his sound soother on. That is great for everyone but he definitely does not nap on the go so it limits our outings sometimes. 

He is very easy going and just kind of goes with whatever we are doing. He has a lot of free play time, but I do try to get down and play with him for a bit during the morning and afternoon. He loves to knock over block towers, throw balls, play with cars and dance to music. He is really good at entertaining himself. We always read books before nap time. His favorite books are: Chicka Chicka ABC, Pat the Bunny, Brown Bear and Red Hat Green Hat. He loves to sing If You're Happy and You Know it and Popcorn Popping. 

James is such a happy little man and loves to smile and laugh. He is always smiling at everyone at the store, church, home and everywhere we go. He gets a little grumpy in the car sometimes and when he is tired/ready for a nap. He loves taking a bath with his brother and splashing in the water. He loves to be outside, but does not like to be on the grass.
