Mason: 10 months!

Can't believe we are in the double digits and in a mere 2 months my baby will be a year old.  It has all gone so fast!!  Sorry for all of the pictures that are to follow, but he was in such a good mood for this photo shoot and was playing it up for the camera...

We were having fun, and needless to say, I got no laying down pictures!  Then, he wanted to play on his daddy's old wooden rocking horse...

"Onward!" I love that he looks like he is riding a real horse. 

Sleep:

- Naps are the same with him napping 2 times a day, once in the morning and once in the afternoon.  They each last about two hours.

- At night he has started to sleep even longer, going 12-12 1/2 hours straight!  It has been amazing!

- He goes to bed between 7:15-7:30 and wakes up between 7:00-7:45 most days.

Feeding:

-He has 4 5oz. bottles, and then he will eat anywhere from 1-4 oz.  before bed and 3 solid meals.

- He has snacks throughout the day as well.  He loves to feed himself!

- He actually drank his formula from a sippy cup instead of a bottle a couple of times.

- He is starting to refuse baby food more and more.  He will usually eat out of the pouches because he can hold it and suck it out on his own.

Weight and Length:

- 21 lbs. 13 oz. and around 28 3/4" 

- 60th percentile for both

Diapers and Clothes:

- Mostly 9-12 and 9 month. Ocasionally a 12 month will fit. 

- Size 3 in diapers still...we prefer Huggies little movers.

Personality/Likes/Miscellaneous:

- He is a speed crawler and gets wherever he wants really fast!

- He pulls up on anything possible, and loves to stand. He has started to let go and just stands there for a bit, and will walk along furniture but has no real desire to try and walk yet.  He is stubborn and has no patience (I have no idea where he got that from) so he sees crawling as his fastest option instead of trying to walk.

- He is clapping his hands and waving.

- He is such a genuinely happy baby...he laughs, talks, and smiles ALL day!  We are so lucky and blessed!

Feeding himself with a fork like a big boy!

Time to dye Easter eggs...

Don't worry dad, I got this!

He ended up with his hand dyed blue, but he had fun!

Loving his bath!

Playing in his fire truck tent from the Easter Bunny!

Picture update

I am blogging from my phone...so here is a short update on life with pictures!

First picture is what they brought Mason at Mimi's! So awesome, without asking they brought him oranges, Cheerios, a bib, and wet wipe. It is one of the most kid/baby friendly restaurants we have been to!

Next up, Mason has mastered the straw!! He loves it and the learner cup by Playtex was great.

Mason hasn't been eating very well this week, but he loved the grilled nuggets and fruit cup from Chik-fil-a!!

Lastly, how cute is my little man after his bath in his big boy pajamas?!
