10 months

Logan turned 10 months old last Saturday and he looks like he's grown/matured a TON in the last month.  He's becoming such a fun little thing and slowly leaving his baby ways behind even though the two big ones, nursing and NOT sleeping through the night, are still alive and well.  

However, he plays so well with his brothers, on his own and with us that I forgive him for those pesky things and am enjoying this stage so much.  It's one of my favorites.  While I clean up a lot of his adventurous messes it's worth it to see the discovery that is beginning.  

Logan also...

* has given up all baby food except for his oatmeal in the mornings and baby yogurt in the afternoons.  He hates yo baby yogurt but loves strawberry Gerber Yogurt.  It's a challenge some days to figure out what to feed him but so far he has really enjoyed noni cheese, pasta alfredo, ravioli (not chef boyardee cause that's disgusting actual real (from the freezer section) ravioli), and basically anything else pasta related, sweet potato fries, green beans, black beans, yellow rice (it's a fav), grits, toast, banana and apple sauce.  He will not eat meat of any kind yet but hopefully we'll figure that out soon.
*is very ticklish under his arms and on his ribs
*can cruise very slowly on the table or couch but not so good at the corners yet.
*likes to roll a ball back and forth to you
*likes to push cars, trucks, etc
*likes to place all toys, random objects and paper (especially paper) in his mouth
*will push the laundry basket so I got the walker and Connor's old ride on 'Mater from the attic so he could practice walking and pushing those two.  He usually starts on his feet and then almost immediately goes to his   knees and takes off.  
*is not a fan of trying to walk by holding your hands but he will pull up on anything and let go and stay standing for about half a second.
*still wakes up once every night/wee hour of the morning
*is down to one nap a day which for either of my other children would have been awful but for him is amazing.  He's up for about 4 hours in the morning then takes about an 1 1/2-2 hour nap which overlaps with Connor's rest time by 30 minutes - 1 hour which means I have a quiet house in the middle of the day!!!  Happy Mama Dance!!!  
*the one nap thing does mean though that by about 5:30 he is C.R.A.N.K.Y but between eating and taking a bath, which is his favorite thing in the entire world,  we can usually make it to 6:45-7:00 before it's bedtime.
