10 Months

Every single month I take Carson's monthly picture and think about all the new things he has done that month but I never seem to get it on here. So this month I am actually going to do it and also show all the pictures I have been taking. Amazingly, Carson is now ten months and I can not believe he is that old but I can barely remember how it was before he arrived, except for the great sleep I used to get. But we love him so much and we always have so much fun with him. Most the time I just sit and watch him play because it cracks me up listening to him talk to himself and stare intently on items like he is trying to figure them out. Here are some things he is doing now or has been doing for a while:

• Crawling but he still sometimes prefers his army man crawl when he is in a hurry
• Climbing onto everything
• Falling down from everything and bumping various parts of his body
• Playing hide and seek in his walker
• Climbing the stairs and going down on his tummy, face first mind you
• Clapping all the time, especially when he hears clapping on TV
• Going through all the drawers he can reach and pulling everything out
• Still pushing anything he can with his walker, including the Tupperware lids and towels he pulls out of my drawers (I'm not loving this one)
• He has 3 teeth which really, really hurt when he bites your finger
• Still loves to eat and just stares at you until you share like he's a little puppy
• He was sleeping through most the night until he started teething and now I can't get him back to that
• Still not a fan of strangers or big groups, he just stares and gives no reactions
• He loves to talk and make noises with his tongue
• Dances when he hears music or at least stops and looks around to see where it is coming from
• Always tries to get to the computer and laser mouse with a red light and pushes your hand away when you are using it
• Loves to watch his daddy when he is working around the house and playing with his tools
• Turning on and off the TVs with the remote or the button on the big screen
• He drops his toys while shopping so you have to pick them up fifty times
• He growls all the time and squints his eyes when he is being funny
• And generally loves to be involved with anything and everything that we are doing

I am sure there are tons more things he does that I am not thinking about but all I can say is that I love this little guy!!

As you can see, I tried several times to get a good 10 month picture but he wasn't

really working with me.
