Growing


I can't believe my baby boy is almost 10 months old. He has started doing so much this month and is growing right before my eyes! Today, was the first day that he pulled up onto the couch by himself. He has been pulling up on his knees for weeks, but I guess just got strong enough to get his body all the way up today. :) It won't be long before he starts cruising around!
He also has continued to be such a great/big eater!! He is eating mostly table food now and really doesn't like to be fed. He prefers picking up the food and doing it all by himself, (even though most of it ends up on the floor!) :) And, now that he has gotten so independent, I try and cherish the sweet baby times even more. I love feeding him all of his bottles, but especially the nighttime one. I soak in that precious time as I am rocking and feeding him because I know it won't be long before this time is over. I still can't believe he will be a year old in two months!! Even though the first year can be exhausting and a lot of work, it truly does go by so quickly!! I have enjoyed every moment and love watching him grow and discover new things. I just wish it wouldn't go by SO fast!! I love you sweet baby Spence!!

Grandma's big boy. You are so cute standing up there and smiling at the world. I know it looks so different to you now. Can't wait to get my hands on you. Love you
