10 Months Old

Tate is 10 months old!!! It is next to impossible to get a picture of him because he doesn't sit still, so bear with the quality of these pictures!

He is wearing 12 - 18 month clothes. These sizes fit in length but fall off his little waist, butt, and hips. He is also in size 4 diapers.

Tate is taking either one long nap (4 hours) or two shorter naps (2 hours) a day, and he is still sleeping through the night. He goes down around 7 and sleeps until we wake him up the next morning. He still prefers to just be laid down to go to sleep - no rocking this baby!

Tate has four 6 ounce bottles a day, 3 meals and a snack. He has started eating more and more table food, and he hates baby food more and more each day.

Sweet boy has 4 teeth - two bottom teeth and two top teeth. The top teeth aren't the front teeth though! He looks like a pumpkin!

His favorite foods are real bananas, yogurt, puffs, and sweet potato fries.

He is saying a lot more this month too - "mama", "dada", "uh-oh", and "Tide" (Roll Tide). He jibber jabbers all the time too. The sweetest thing is when he wakes up on his own and is lying in bed talking. Sweet little voice!

Tate LOVES Addison. When he sees her after a nap or after a day at daycare he squawks at her. It is precious.

He is beginning to hold his own with Addison, so she will have a rude awakening when he starts walking. He has begun to tell on her when she is mean to him too. He will start crying and crawl to either Jonathan or me. He will tell on anyone who doesn't give him his way too.

He will now let go of whatever he pulls up on and just stand alone. Walking is in the not so distant future. He is already a master at climbing the stairs, so we have to keep the gates up in both directions.

Tate is our climber too! I never had to worry about Addison climbing anything, but Tate will try to climb anything.

Tate dances and claps to music. He gets a big smile on his face and starts moving. So cute!

He loves toys he can push around, so he is 100% into boy toys. He will push a car all over the floor. He also loves to throw EVERYTHING! When he finishes a bottle, he throws it. If you give him a toy, he throws it. Maybe he has pitcher or quarterback in his future???

He is 100% Mama's boy!! I LOVE IT TOO!! He will hug me and kiss my face (very messy kisses). He is the sweetest little boy ever!!
