10 Months Old

What is going on with Reid:
1. Still loves to eat... favorite foods are manderine oranges, eggs, mom's homemade mac n' cheese and just about anything he can feed himself. He has also started eating meat and likes chicken and steak.
2. Reid now has 5 teeth with one more about to break through. Three teeth came at one time which resulted in a fever for three days. We were really glad when he got back to his normal happy self.
3. He likes to climb on things and has learned to get out of a chair all by himself.
4. WALKING....taking about 5 steps at a time. He gets in a hurry and decides that crawling is faster.
5. New skill turning in circles while sitting down.
6. Loves to read at bedtime. Favorite story I Love You Through and Through
7. He still has a love for spinning things. He has found the toliet paper in the bathroom and if you are not watching all the paper will be on the floor in seconds.
8. Went to his first movie at the drive in...slept the entire time. Went to a second movie at the drive in...woke up and watched CARS 2 for about an hour.
9. Had our first snow cone together ... got to love summers in Texas and the Aunt Stela's Snowcones on Main Street in Duncanville...brings back old childhood times for Kasey and me.

Fun in the Sun

Reid loves the water and already has got figured out how to kick and move his arms to get around the pool in his floatie.

Reids stats:
Height: 29 1/4"
Head: 17 3/4"
Weight: 19 pounds 7 1/2 oz.

1. Reid loves to be tickled or mommy loves it because it makes him giggle. He is definately ticklish like his daddy.
2. The day before Mother's Day Reid said his first word "Momma" Daddy could not top that present...it was awesome.
3. Reid loves everything that spins. One day he was in the bathroom and when I went in to get him all the toliet paper was spun off the roll. I am glad it wasn't a full one!!!
4. Reid has three teeth and one top tooth is about to break through any day.
5. We have started to feed him finger foods. Some of his favorites are steamed carrots, waffles, cantelope, grapes, green beans, biscuits, and banana. He still eats his pureed food too.
6. Reid is very close to taking his first step. He stands by himself for about 30 seconds. He is walking around the house while pushing or holding onto anything.
7. Reid is taking 2 naps a day and has recently decided to be an early riser like his mommy. (6:45am has become the new normal)
8. Reid loves to be chased when he is crawling. He will crawl a little bit then stop and see if your there to get him...he then starts to laugh and crawl some more.
9. Reid likes to sit like a big boy in the shopping cart and get groceries at Wal-Mart
10. Every night I sing, "I love you, you love me, we are a happy family, with a great big hug and a kiss from me to you, sweet dreams my little baby" The best part of the song is when he giggles at the kisses right before I lay him down. I can ask for a better ending to the day!

The great crawling chase to get his PJ's on. A memory that will always make us laugh!

1. Wow Reid is really on the go! He is crawling everywhere, pulling up and climbing on anything. He has even learned how to crawl up stairs.
2. Bottom two front teeth are in place, we will start brushing our teeth very soon.
3. Takes two naps a day for about 2 hours a piece and will sleep all night.
4. We had a dedication service at church to commit to raising him in a Christian home and teaching him about spirtuality.
5. With his new love of moving about we have had a few minor bumps and bruises, but overall he is a tuff little guy.
6. Loves dogs and will interact more with Wrigley and Lexi. He got to play with Ruby his cousins puppy at Easter.
7. Favorite song "The Wheels on the Car Go Round and Round" yes it is silly, but he will stop crying in the car everytime mommy sings it.
8. Loves to eat with his hands, but he has not learned to put things in his mouth one at a time. We are working on that especially with bigger bites.
9. Reid is vocal and is uttering lots of consonant and vowel blends. Ga, Da, Ge (so this is where people came up with goo goo ga ga)
10. Bath time is still a favorite and he loves his new toy. We can not wait for trips to the pool this summer!
