Cade used to do so well with our weekly pictures.
Do you know how hard it is to get a 10 month old to sit still for even 2 seconds?? Especially when all he wants is the camera I'm holding in my hand!
We went for an ear re-check at the doctor yesterday (our month long ear infection is finally gone) and Cade weighed in at 20 pounds 13 ounces. He's wearing 6-12 month tops and bottoms, but 12 or 12-18 month jams now. His big feet are quickly outgrowing size 3 shoes :(
What's New
Pretty much everything! I feel like I have a totally different kid this month. Cade is still pulling up on everything, and will now let go and stand on his own for a moment before sitting down. He says "mama" "dada" and "aye-aye" (which I assume is bye-bye). And I swear he's said "cat" more than a few times now. He waves hello, goodbye, and claps. Cade also will throw a fit now when you take something away from him or remove him from where he's not supposed to be (like our trash can, which is his favorite thing in our whole house). He's also discovered he can throw things. Yay.
We really started more solid foods these last few weeks, because what better time than the holidays?! He doesn't care much for baby solids like yogurt bites or cereal puffs, but does great with our food. He loves green beans and macaroni and cheese. So much that when I tried to feed him baby food the other night he literally cried until I shared my food with him. I'm thinking fairly soon we'll be on all solids.
Still not much luck on the sippy cup. Cade just wants to chew on it instead of drink out of it, especially since he has 4 molars coming in right now. He does great drinking out of a regular cup. Too bad he's not coordinated enough not to sling it all over the floor.
Thanksgiving was so much fun! Cade got to meet all of his cousins from Alabama. Now we are definitely in the Christmas spirit. The house is decorated (he hasn't ripped a single ornament off the trees) and all of our presents are bought. I've got a pile of presents in the office waiting to be wrapped, but I'm just not motivated right now. I feel like he will decide to tackle those once they're under the tree.
Madison chewed on her sippy cup too. We tried for about 6 months to give her the sippy cup along with her bottle & finally one day I tried only the sippy cup. If she didn't drink out of it, she didn't get anything to drink. She went all day without drinking much, but the last time I tried that day she drank every bit of formula out of her cup. We were bottle-free after that!
