Tenth month


How in the world has ten months flown by? Rhett is super active these days and never stops. I thought he was my calm child, but now I'm not so sure. Nonetheless he is almost always smiling and brings lots of cheer to others. Here are some stats:

Weight: 24 pounds
30 inches long

Appearance:
  • Less rolls
  • Getting a great farmers tan- as he has tanned a birthmark has appeared on his lower back
  • Hair is lightning up from the sun
  • Most people say he is looking like c more and more- especially their profiles

Milestones:
  • Very vocal and babbling a lot more
  • Stage 4 clinger- when I'm around he wants me and only me. It's kind of nice because C never cared if I was around. 
  • Has mastered crawling and pulling up
  • Stands on his tippy toes 
  • Learned to use his walker but would rather be on the floor crawling
  • Takes a few steps holding on to the couch
  • crawls straight to the stairs (and has crawled up halfway)- time for the baby gate 
  • Claps and waves a lot
  • Shakes his head no no
  • Anything he can get his hands on goes in his mouth 
  • When music comes on he smiles and starts bopping up and down.
  • Still very easy to smile

Teeth-
  • still 8 no new ones this month. 

Eat
  • Really enjoys eating off our plates
  • Favorites: yogurt, strawberries, bananas, eggs 
  • Enjoys self-feeding (or atleast trying)

Sleep- 
  • Goes to bed around 8:30
  • Wakes up for bottle between 5-6
  • Wakes up for good around 7 

Nap- 
  • One morning and one afternoon
  • Occasionally catnaps in the evening 

Happenings
End of school -- so mommy is home everyday now (yippee)
Mr. Brian's retirement bash at our house- we had a surprise party for Brian's Aylesworth at our house. We had 50 of his closest friends and family over to celebrate. Rhett was super fussy until I realized his pants were too tight. Opps!
Boat with daddy- Rhett loves trips on the water. He squeals really big when he sees fish! 
McNeills came over for vacation
Pool trips - seems to enjoy the water! Loves watching brother splash around.,
