What a great month!


Tomorrow Maxwell turns 10 months - it has been a great month for him (and for us!)
Some fun things that happened this month:
1. First camping trip (he loved it)
2. Done nursing (I was so ready)
3. He would never take a bottle, now he is a 100 % sippy cup drinker
4. Says Uh - oh and loves to play the Uh-Oh game (you know the one, they throw something and say uh - oh, you pick it up and they throw it again. he especially enjoys this over the pews at church!)
5. Can feed himself - and he eats everything and sometimes too quickly.
6. No binkies (he was never a huge fan but we threw them all away this week and he did not notice!)
7. Swimming lessons - he loves them and has even gained tolerance for going underwater (he hates it but he doesn't cry anymore!)
8. Sleeping through the night without any fuss- well 8:30 - 5:30 or 6 am. At this point - that works for us.
9. He is sleeping in his own room for bedtime - we all love this one!10. Naps are more regular and longer - finally! He still takes them in our room - it is much quieter!
11. He is a very fast crawler and cruiser - I am sort of dreading the day that he starts walking!
12. He loves Baby Einstein - it has worked wonders when he is fussy!
13. Talking about fussy - he has grown two teeth!

It has been a very busy month for everyone around here but especially for Maxwell! He is still the cutest and sweetest baby - he loves his big sisters, LOVES being outside, and is generally a very happy baby!
