10 months

First of all don't try to take pictures before nap time - even if your little one seems happy.  You will gets lots of this....

Not looking at the camera

 Not looking at the camera

 Eye rubbing

 being sad

 More eye rubbing

 Then when you give them something to play with so they will give you some smiles, then they cover up the smiles with the thing you gave them

 Or give you weird looks like this

 Then they crawl over to you to see if you are done - Oh and yes I said CRAWL

 Then you give them something different and they eat it.

They continue to look anywhere but at the camera

 Then they give you the bored look

 And then this is the best you get

Yep, we tried this a little too close to nap time.

So little James is ten months old -
He is crawling - hard core army style, only really using one arm.
He says "ball" and he knows what it is.
He is LOVING his blanket - he gets sooo excited to see it, hold it and to go to bed.
He drinks out of a cup pretty well when it is held for him.
He is eating more big people foods.  His favorites are still fishes.
He is still toothless.
He is getting better and better about moving along furniture while walking
He loves when dad comes home.
He loves to have stories read to him.
He bounces a little when we have music on
He loves to watch "signing time."  It's a movie.
He is so ticklish
He loves to be out and about so he can people watch.
He loves friends that are around his size.

We are now really having to think about baby proofing - any ideas or suggestions?
