Double Digits - 10 Month Kyan!

Last week Kyan turned 10 months old. We have entered double digits! When I think back on this time of Mckinley's life she seemed so much older to me. Time seemed to fly by with her, but it still felt like 10 months when I really reflected on it. With Kyan, I look back at the past 10 months and think where did those months go? I feel like it was just last month that he was a tiny baby. Now he is ALL over the place. I cannot get this kid to sit still! It must be that for four months of Ky's life I was working (boo!) and with Mckinley she had my undivided attention every day. I do at least still feel like I have got to enjoy my time with Kyan to the fullest. He is such an awesome baby. Full of life and happiness. He thinks everything is great (except being hungry) and is happy to be with whoever wants to be with him! 

It is hard to believe that we are sneaking up on a year. I'm starting to think about his birthday and that it is just around the corner. I remember so clearly this time with Mckinley and being nervous (but still happy) about what was to come. How would I handle toddler years? I now know they are hard, really hard! But I have many, many, MANY loves about these toddler years as well. I am sad that Ky is getting older, but also extremely excited for what is to come. Seeing how Mckinley's personality has just exploded makes me eager to see what Kyan's will be like as a speaking, communicating little person! 

I have an unfortunate habit right now of being behind on these posts. Life is just so busy. I do not really see that changing all that much though, so I should probably just get used to finding time to blog. 

Things that are happening with Kyan at 10 months:

* Crawling and cruising all over. You still do not stand on your own though, so I do not see walking anytime soon in your future.

* Still an awesome eater. Although, you get extremely upset if food is not presented to you quickly enough. 

* You now say da-da and ba-ba, but still no ma-ma!

* You climb on and over everything, and you are constantly busy! 

* You will not sit still to listen to a book. Hopefully this will change soon.

* Sleep is still great, but you will not pick a set time to wake up. Sometimes it is 7:15 and other times it is 8:30. You range from sleeping anywhere from 11-12.5 hours a night. Also, still two 2-2.5 hour naps a day. 

* We went to the doctor this week and you weigh 24 lbs 7 oz. (87%) and are 31 inches (96%). Big in both respects, but he said for height to weight you are only 75th percentile. Nice and healthy.

* You have four teeth and are working on your fifth and sixth-I can just start to see them coming in. 

* As usual, Mckinley is your favorite thing ever! She beats you up a lot, but then will love on you a lot too. :)

* You celebrated your first Christmas this past month. You had tons of fun with all the new stuff, but really you didn't know much about what was going on. You LOVED the crepes we had for breakfast though!

Not a whole lot happened this month, it was just another fun month watching you grow and learn. Each day you seem so much older. I cannot believe that pretty soon you will be walking around and starting to talk! Funny how that all the sudden just happens....for now you are still my baby though! :)

 

Picture time! Getting a picture of Kyan is nearly impossible these days, and this little photo shoot was no exception! He was a nightmare to take photos of...these are these best of the bunch!

 

 

 

 

 

          This is about how much he enjoyed getting his picture taken.

 

Two more pictures to show just all the fun Kyan likes to get into these days!
