What's New - 10 months

Graham is getting so big! A friend recently said to me, "He's like the size of a 2 year old!" Now that he is crawling all over, his body has become very long and lean. Speaking of crawling, in the last 2 weeks Graham has mastered the hands-and-knees crawl and given up the "army crawl." He is so fast! The number one word I would use to describe him right now is CURIOUS! He is no longer content to sit in the living room and play on the floor. He has to know what's going on the other rooms and what's on top of all the surfaces (couches, chairs, tables, etc.). He is pulling up. He usually pulls up to his knees, and to his feet if he really wants something.

One recent development is Graham's lack of enthusiasm for baby food. He wants real food! This definitely takes a little more planning and preparation on my part. Some of his new favorite foods are: mac and cheese, chicken (and really any kind of meat!), cheese, peas, cheerios, green beans, bananas, and carrots. He loves feeding himself. I still give him a little baby food at each meal as well. He seems to be eating so much now!!

Graham has always been a very good sleeper and still is. He sleeps about 11 hours each night and takes 2 naps each day. He sleeps about an hour in the morning and 2-3 hours in the afternoon. I am loving these long naps!

We love this little guy so much! We treasure each babble, each laugh, and each time pulls at our legs for attention. He is such a blessing and a ray of sunshine in our lives. Thank you Lord for this blessing!
