Ahhh! 10 months has brought all kinds of busy to our house. It has been harder to find free time to get on and blog about my sweet Squish, but we are certainly enjoying playing all over our house! Kellan is now off of his belly and crawling around everywhere! He is getting faster by the minute. He also loves to bear walk, but hasn't managed to do more then a couple steps in a row with that yet. He is ever so close to figuring out how to pull himself up to standing, so far all he does is get on one foot and one knee (proposal style) and pull on whatever is closest. He hasn't managed to do more, but I know I am going to walk in and find him standing in his crib any day now! So life is full of trying to keep the little man entertained, going to playgroups, and trying to fit quality family time in while Rob is home. I can't believe in 2 more months my little Squishapillar is going to be 1 year old!!
Things Kellan is doing at 10 months:
Kellan is now crawling - everywhere - fast! He has such determination to get to the places he knows he isn't supposed to be. We are enjoying chasing him everywhere.
He is also bear-walking, and pulling himself to his knees, and a little beyond.
We are finally doing some really babbling. Kellan is loving Ba-Ba-Ba, and Bobbobbob. He is very close to doing Mama, and Dada we have heard both a couple of times. We swear he is even saying Rob!
Kellan has 8 teeth now. 4 top and 4 bottom. Although judging by the amount of drool, I am thinking there are probably some more on their way!!
Kellan is finally eating like a champ, although he is still very stubborn
(wonder where he gets that from...). At his 10 month well check, Kellan weighed in at 22lbs 3ozs! And 29 inches, although I am pretty sure they measured wrong and think he is closer to 30-31 inches...
(Otherwise he has only grown an inch in 4 months, and trust me his pants say otherwise!)
As far as foods go, Kellan LOVES yogurt. And he will eat anything mixed with yogurt.
(This is how I have been making sure he is eating his green veggies.) He will eat pureed fruits and vegetables when he feels like it, but he is also really starting to prefer table food/finger foods.
(Today he ate a whole strawberry - completely distroyed it, and loved it!) He also loves whole wheat waffles, freeze-dried fruit chips, cheese, cream cheese on a bagel thin, and sometimes he will eat veggies this way if he is in the mood! Tofu, beans, and grains are also being tried, but he isn't sure how he likes them yet.
Kellan is also waving Hi, giving air kisses, signing all-done (all the time), and even gives hugs now.
We are so blessed to have such a wonderful baby! He makes me smile all the time. I am loving watching him grow and learn, and can't wait to see what tomorrow will bring.
