Dane - 10 months

I've been really lame about recording Dane's progress in life. He's the 2nd child. Things are different with the 2nd child. But, here are some interesting facts that I still want to remember so, I need to get better at recording them.

• At 10 months, you still have NO teeth. But can eat ANYTHING. You ate BAGEL BITES the other night for dinner, with no teeth. Bad mommy.


• You and your mom have thrush for probably the 805th time this nursing season.


• The stairs, you love them. And you are fast now. Scares me to death. You don't know how to come down.


• I don't know your official weight but, it's probably 24-25 pounds. And you sister is probably 25 pounds.


• You are finally fitting into a more appropriate size of clothing for you. 12 and 12-18 months are a good fit. However, there is nothing "slim" about you!


• Not walking yet, but once you do, your sister is going to be sorry for all the mean things she's done to you.


• You are really good at standing up. You start in the same squat position that your dad and sister can do (mom can't squat like this, it's a Eli Cox thing) and stand up. And yeah, you think you're a pretty cool dude. Your balance has really come along in just the last week. Walking is close...... too close.


• Peek-a-boo is an understatement. You prefer a game more like, hide-and-go-seek. It's so fun. And the loud roar of a lion coming from your mom and dad's voicebox is your favorite after you've been found.


• You are showing a definite interest in animals, just like your sister did at this age. Sorry kids, no pets for you. Your meow is a super high pitched scream. And you love to chase dogs. Maybe we can havev a dog later in life, if you dad takes care of it:)


• Momma, Dadda, and hi or hey. Those are your words.


• Can't forget about the TV. Bad mom and dad, again. You love watching shows with your sister. Sick.


• You give kisses and love to blow bubbles and make fart noises with your mouth. And you think your dad's real farts are funny. This must be a guy thing.


• You love to play outside. Anywhere. Anytime.

That's about it kid. We love you. You make our lives sooooo much fun.
