Seriously don't know where the time has gone but my little 'big guy' is almost 10 months old! He is just changing every day. Saturday was our Spring football game so I took the kids to go out and support their daddy and the entire BSU team. The weather was great and we all really enjoyed it. Matthew learned how to clap which was pretty great too! We have been working on it for a while now so it was great to see it finally 'click'.....and at a football game at that! :) So I'm also hoping the baby signs I've been teaching will begin to show themselves too.
It also seems that with crawling Matthew feels more like a true 'big guy'! He is crawling all around the house and knows he can get into everything whenever he wants. The latest is the dog food (so we switched to a smaller size piece of food- sorry Katie!) and my kitchen cabinets. Anyone who has ever had a baby/toddler before knows the 'fun' in playing with pots and pans. I know I can get safety locks on them but he isn't doing any harm and it makes me keep my kitchen floors so much cleaner too! Lately I can't get him to even eat baby food- just food from our plate....and still no teeth!! I don't know how he does it! Even though it is a little sad for me he is now taking a bottle much better these days. It has given me much more freedom too! Letting go has to start somewhere....:(
I just feel so blessed to have my happy and healthy kids!
