10 Months!!
Weight: 25-26 lbs to make a wild guess (Addison only weighs 30, he is about to pass her!)
Height: Not a clue, 29 inches?
Diaper Size: 4
Clothing Size: 18-24 months; not just in girth believe it not but in height
Overall: I could kiss his big old cheeks and tickle him all day long if I could! Every inch of his body is ticklish and he has the most contagious gooberlicious giggle! He has been teething and getting over a random snotty nose so his sleep was a tad wacky but overall he is doing well sleeping!
He finally learned to sit himself up this month consistently and can pop up on his hands and knees with no hesitation but just does not go anywhere. The crib will be lowered this weekend, even though I am confident this kids is not getting mobile anytime soon.
He LOVES being out and about and is really chatting /babbling with a lot more purpose now. He can says "Hi" and "Hi Dada" in the sweetest airy whisper. My favorite development this month is he is pointing at things; I loved it when Addison started doing that too :)
Independent play time is going very well, he is up to 15 minutes once a day. We will keep it here until he gets mobile; we want to give him plently of pracitice and space to get his major motor skills going. His size (like big sister) makes it difficult to get moving but we are not worried.
A friend once told me, when talking about her youngest child, that she was so glad her youngest took a little longer to meet some milestones (teeth, crawling, walking, sitting up, etc) because she loved that she was still SUCH a baby. I did not quite understand that until now. I LOVE that Caleb still cannot crawl or walk and needs us still. Its sweet. I love that he is still so "babyish" as my friend put it.
Hi (he actually says "hi" with an airy whisper) I am Caleb Asher Grant and yesterday I turned 10 months old.
I LIKE...
... mischief.
...eating anything, especially green beans, turkey loaf and cherrios!
...to sit myself up.
...to sleep late in the morning sometimes.
...anything to do with Daddy-his name, looking at him, playing with him and even pictures of him.
...make mommy and daddy THINK I am going to learn to crawl.
...watching my big sister do everything!
...to let everyone know when I am unhappy.
...popciles.
...to put everything in my mouth, big and small; eatable and ineatable; alive and dead.
...music.
...dancing.
...cell phones, but only real ones--I know if you are tricking me with a silly fake toy phone.
...sunggle and hug every stuffed animal, baby doll and blanket I can find.
...FaceTime.
...to twirl my hands and feet when I get excited.
...my stroller, especially the double when Addy is riding next to me because I can constantly touch her :)
...to be tickled because I am ticklish---ALL OVER!
...the car!
I DO NOT LIKE...
...liquid feedings, they are so boring.
...watching everyone else move around while I am stuck just rolling around.
...not being able to do something.
...when you take anything away from me, even if it is not a toy.
...loud noises.
...being left with strangers unless it is at MY house because clearly my house is the best.
...tofu.
...trying to crawl.
...to sit still.
...to be predictable.
...to sleep without my sleep sack on.
...when I cannot sleep for a nap because I cannot lay myself down.
...waking up in the middle of the night.
...to do anything quickly; I like to relish the moment.
