William is 10 months old!

Thursday, February 19, 2015

William turned 10 months old on February 10th!  He is feeling much better than when we was 9 months old with a cold.  He is taking his bottle a little better and still drinks 4 bottles a day.  He loves to eat.  He eats turkey, chicken, grilled fish, soft fruits, breads, mild cheeses, baby teething snacks and veggie packs.  He LOVES bread and any type of bread as long as it's soft bread.  I think he can eat that all day if we just sat there and fed him like a bird.  Actually he is exactly like a bird in many ways.  He eats bread like a bird and makes these loud annoying squawking sounds like a bird.  He hoots and yelps, but that's really the only sounds he makes that are loud.  He's saying Ma Ma and Da Da and Ga Ga and loves to just mumble and talk to himself.  He also likes to mimic Lydia's sounds which can be good and bad.  He absolutely loves to hold your fingers and walk.  He has no interest in crawling or moving on the floor with his body except to scoot on his bottom while sitting up.  He still hates tummy time and flips over on his back immediately.  He will grab your fingers and pull himself up and start walking and just laughs and laughs about it.  He has 3 teeth with 2 more on the way in and they really bother him.  He drools a lot and you can tell he is in pain with them so we try to help him out the best we can.  He really is such a good baby and still sleeps his 2 naps for 2 hours each and all through the night.  He smiles and laughs and everyone says what a happy baby he is...such a joy to be around.  We all couldn't agree more.  He is so smitten with Lydia and knows her name when we say it.  He will look around wondering where she is and wait for her to come into the room and smile big and kick his legs when he hears her.  It's very sweet.  He loves playing with her and really studies her and what she's doing.  They are going to be great playmates.
