10 months old?!

Since Eric takes our laptop with him to work during the week, I have really started slacking on the blog updating. I am so far behind it is not even funny. We have a desktop but it is so slow that I hate using it. So I totally didn’t do a 9 month post for Deegan and he has been 10 months for a week now (holy cow!) so I thought I better get on it. No pics but those will come soon! I just wanted to get some stuff down before I forget. Here are some fun things about Deegan at 10 months!

• He started crawling just a couple days after the 9 month mark and he cruises!
• Shortly after crawling, he got really good at pulling himself up on anything and everything he can!He is almost always standing up to something or someone.
  
• He is always at my feet and pulling himself up on my legs. This is so cute but makes it hard to get stuff done sometimes.
• He is such a little jabberer and I love it!
• He is sometimes hard to get to bed since he thinks he is pretty neat when he stands up in his crib.
• Lately he has liked me to rock him with him sitting against my chest. He will lay his head on me and go right to sleep. I cannot even tell you how much I love this!
• He loves to play with the door stops ever since daddy showed them to him.
• He cruises around in his walker and gets so proud of himself!
• He loves most all foods, however, HATES cottage cheese. Me too!
• He loves water! Drinking it, playing in it, bathing, showering, you name it! If he sees a water bottle he gets excited and wants a drink. Same if he sees any running water. He gets so excited!
  
• He is a busy body and rarely holds still at all unless he is tired. It gets exhausting but I love it.
• He is getting to where he doesn’t really need his binki much so I am trying to see if I can get rid of it entirely before too long. He does great during the day but seems to want it more at night.
• He just barely moved up to Size 3 diapers but could still fit in size 2.
• He is still in 6 month or 6-9 month clothes and 3-6 month pants.
• His feet are still a little too chubby on top to fit in shoes.
• He thinks he is pretty funny when you are changing his diaper or clothes and he starts rolling to his tummy. It makes it quite the process!
• He loves animals! Especially dogs and my moms cats.
• I figure he weighs about 18 pounds.
• He takes about 2-3 naps a day and goes to bed about 8:30 and sleeps until 6:30-7.
• He is all boy and loves loud things! Trucks, lawn mower, vacuum…..he loves to see big vehicles drive by our house!
• He still just has his 2 bottom middle teeth.
• His hair doesn’t stand up quite like it used to and that makes me kind of sad. It seems to be getting more blond but still has some red in it so we will see!
• He is still just a happy little guy who makes my day so much better!
• He thinks its fun to throw his binki. Another good reason to get rid of it! J
• He has become quite the momma’s boy the last while. I love it but it is a little hard sometimes. It makes me so happy that he knows me and loves me so much. And I think he knows how much his mommy loves him!

I think that’s about it! I know that is a lot but I just don’t want to forget these fun things!

It has been hard lately with Eric gone so much but I am so happy to have this little guy to keep me company. There is never a moment when I wonder what I should do. No down time at my house! My house is seriously lacking but that’s okay! He is the greatest thing that has happened to us and we cannot (and don’t want to!) imagine our family without him!
