Oh sweet Carter how fast you are growing! It's just crazy! You are one happy and goofy little boy these days. Here's what you've been up too this month...
Playing...you are on the move little one! You are a full on crawler and a fast one at that. You've finally mastered crawling on all fours on the hard floors. This has opened a whole new world for you and you are into EVERYTHING! You love to sit and play with your toys(and your brother's) and love to play alongside Cade in whatever he is doing. You are now pulling up on everything and can hold yourself up for quite sometime. The crib mattress has been lowered and I love walking in your room to get you and seeing your little face peering out from over the rails at me. You are so content and happy! Unless you are hungry or way past naptime we rarely hear a whimper from you.
Growing...you weighed in at 18lbs 2oz this month and 27.75 inches long. That puts you in 10-15% in weight and 25% in height. You're my little guy and I love it! You are still in size 3 diapers and wearing anywhere from 6-9 month clothes.
Eating...you are becoming more exploratory in your eating. You still eat some baby food but we are slowly branching out into the world of finger foods. Your favorites this month are yogurt, applesauce, peas, cheese, steamed carrots, cheerios, black beans, strawberries, bananas, cucumber, and of course the graham cracker and mum mum:). Just last week you had your first taste of a chick fil a chicken nugget and you LOVED it! I am slowly introducing the sippy cup. You mainly just play with it but occasionally will get the hang of it and get a little water out. Teeth wise you cut your top 2 teeth this month. Naturally you decided to cut them while we were out of town for a week! These seemed to bother you quite a bit more than the first 2 and you were Mr. fussy pants and not sleeping well for a few days. It's no wonder because they are some big teeth with quite a nice little gap in between them:)
Sleeping...You still take roughly 2 naps a day and go to bed around 7:30 everynight. You are normally up for the day by 8am waking about once around 5 or 6am to nurse. You developed your first ear infection this month and the only way I even knew to get them checked was that you were waking up screaming every few hours during the night.
We love you Carter-bud and can't wait to see what all month 10 brings!!
