William 10 Months Old!

I seriously can not believe that I have a 10 month old! He is almost a year! I just push those scary feelings of my baby growing up out of my thoughts and try to ignore the fact that one day he will have stinky feet and hair on his face! ( not much hair though if he's anything like his dad ;) He will just stay my baby forever right? 

At Williams 9 Month check up he was 

24.23 lbs  96.72%tile

31.25 inches tall  99.88% tile

17.91 Head circumference 60.41%tile 

At 10 months he can 

Wave

does "Sooo big!" (puts both hands in the air above his head) 

claps, still a little messy but he is perfecting it! Its probably his favorite "trick" 

Does "Crazy baby" Shakes his head back and forth really fast! 

Happy dance (kicks both legs like crazy) 

Starting to crawl more but still favoring his army crawl on his tummy
Talks in his own language
says mama and dada but doesn't know what they mean yet.
gurgles when he is mad, hungry, or sad.
Follows me EVERYWHERE. If I stay in one place long enough he actually catches up to me.
Sleeps from 7:00pm-7:00am every night! :) Takes a nap from 10:00am-12:00pm and again from 2:30-4:30pm every day. He is a great sleeper and a great eater! I am very blessed!

Its not hard to see that he is talk and chunky! I love him a lot!

These moments are becoming fewer and fewer. I am cherishing every single one of them that happens! I love the cozys! 

At 10 months Wil LOVES his sippy cup and he is a pro at pulling to stand on our coffee table. 

 

He LOVES green smoothies! When I turn the blender on he does a happy dance and kicks his legs like crazy!!! I can't feed him fast enough. I wish he would learn to drink from a straw! 

I feel like he has been teething for a solid month! He started teething while we were on our vaction in Austin and hasn't stopped since. His bottom two teeth broke through in Austin but his top two are taking their sweet time. I am enjoying the cuddles that are resulting in a sad baby. :( 

 

Wil has discovered the beauty of spring time! We spend probably two hours a day outside on a blanket in the warm weather! He HATES getting sunscreen put on him but he LOVE blackberries. I couldn't feed them to him fast enough. He is a fruit baby for sure!! 

 

Check out those rolls!! And the cute bum!!!

He LOVES bath time! (He loves a lot of things! ;) He pulls himself up and PLOPS down on his bum making a huge splash! Apparently that is entertaining for him because he will do that the entire time he is in the bath! 

 

Sorry for the indecent pictures and video. He was being so cute and I wanted the pictures and video for our memories! :) 

In April we celebrated Russ' Dad's birthday. We went to dinner with his grandparents and his grandma from Colorado was even in town. It was fun to spend and evening together eating good food! :) 

It was also Jen's birthday too! 

My mom and Russ and I decided we would surprise Jen for her bday so with Nick's approval we took the trip to Idaho Falls and set up some decorations and had a really fun relaxing weekend. Wil was entertained with an orange the last 30 mins of the drive. He LOVED it! Other than that he did pretty good for his first road trip. Especially since he HATE his carseat! 

SURPRISE!

Poor Wil and those DANG teeth! I wish they would break through already! His aunty Jen bought him a good teething ring and he was much happier! 

Some of my very favorite moments with Wil are when we play on the ground together. I  mostly just lay there but he is getting very good at protecting his blanket from me and climbing all over me! 

After Idaho we decided it was time to buy a bigger car seat for Wil! He was so happy to play around in it! And now when we get in the car he is so much happier to be riding! He is still rear facing of course but now he is sitting up a little more and his seat is much more comfy! 

Jen came down for a quick weekend visit! We called a Licia over and did a quick shopping run. I love us! 

I have been wanting to try a new restaurant in Provo called the Tortilla Bar. Every time I have tried to go they have been closed! It was seriously so delicious! Russell was even impressed and if it's not a big fat greasy burger that is hard to do! 

Russ was happy to be drinking out of a mason jar like on Duck Dynasty
