Bubbling Bouncing Giggling Baby Boy

Our baby has entered double digits! Jude is now 10 months old!

Here is his monthly update:

• He laughs nearly constantly. He's just the happiest guy we've ever met!
• He loves being packed around by his sister. We just recently let Ellie start to carry Jude around - with our arms close, of course. Pictures of this adorable scene soon.
• He weighs over 20 pounds!
• Teeth count = EIGHT! Yep, 4 on top and 4 on bottom
• The nickname that seems to be sticking . . . MacGruder
• He pulls to standing. Especially in his crib at night.
• Maybe starting to sleep better. We have been doing some sleep training over the weekend and the last few nights he actually has had a few 4 hour stretches of sleep!
• Has Reactive Airway Disease. Which is like asthma for babies. We had another trip to the ER a couple weeks ago when he was struggling to breathe while he had a cold. Appartently, this kid didn't get the memo that breastfed babies should have a lower risk for respiratory illness!
• And most importantly . . . He's crawling! It's the funniest one-legged crawl I've ever seen but he can't sure get around. If you come to our house anytime soon don't expect to see any cute decor accents within 3 feet of the floor.
