Sullivan celebrated 10 months yesterday! Two more months until his first birthday! I'm completely freaking out. This year is just flying by! The photo above is the only one I could snap yesterday before my camera battery died, so not the greatest, but any pic with my baby is cute to me!
Sullivan is all over the place these days! He's fast and will be from his play area in the living room to Bailey's dog bed in about 10 seconds! I have no idea why he loves Baileys dirty, dog hair covered bed, but when he makes it over there, he just buries his whole body in it and rubs his face all over it. Probably not the greatest thing for a kid who has to take Zyrtec twice a day, but it's hard to stop him every time! He is still enamored of Bailey and Sophie and really any dog or cat he sees. He'll follow Bailey around and Bailey will bring her toys to him and drop them for him to 'play with her'.
He's definitely getting a lot more attitude and is typically unhappy having his diaper changed or his clothes changed unless you have something really interesting for him to hold during. He is still a good eater, but will let you know if he doesn't like something!
He is waving and saying Bye, giving fives still, says Hey sometimes, lots of didi and dada now that he's finally made it to the d's. Most mamas these days come when he's really upset. If you ask him where certain things and people are, he will turn and look at them like: fish, dada, bailey/dog, mama. Trys to say words like bottle and bowl.
Sleep is still touch and go. Last night he slept through the night, Sunday he was up every 2 to 3 hours. No method to the madness, but I guess we are used to it now.
He had his first fever last week, and I was a total new mom about it. Made Daniel get up and read in the baby book about fevers. it took two doses of Tylenol before his fever came down, and we didn't get to sleep until 5 ish. LONG NIGHT. Felt so bad for my poor Pooh. I knew as soon as I picked him up he had a fever. It was a dramatic difference to his usual hot head. Hopefully next time I'll be a little less freaked out/panicky. Doesn't help when your husband says, does his neck look stiff? Hello, thanks for making me even more paranoid about meningitis!
He is still happy and cheerful 98% of the time. Loves to go to his daycare and just grins at the ladies there. Loves to dance to the ABC song and just about any other music he hears. Loves his musical instrument toys and animals that sing. After bath each night, we spend about 30 minutes having naked baby play time in his room. Daniel and I will usually lay on either side of him to watch him play, and he has started sitting up and spinning in a circle, typically holding a burp cloth or diaper. We joke that he's cleaning the floor. I need to get it on camera because it's hilarious. He's wearing 12 month clothes for the most part, although he can still fit into a couple of his knit 9 month things. I only buy 18month clothing items now since he just grows so fast! STILL NO TEETH, although, about every other day someone remarks he must be teething. I swear he's been teething since 4 months. I guess they are all going to come in at once. I don't even look anymore. A watched pot never boils, ya know?
Newest trick: hamming it up for the camera. I don't know what started this, but when my Mom was taking pics of him at Gigi's house over labor day weekend, every time he saw the flash, he would make the face below. There is a video showing him in action doing this below as well.
Here he is napping in his Bebe's lap Saturday morning. Sweet angel!
We went out to the farm to visit Daddy during his break from dove hunting, and Sullivan got to see/meet baby cows for the first time!
Love my sweet boys!
On a non-baby note, I have my second knitting class tonight! Looking forward to it! Last week served as a refresher for things I had learned years ago, so I'm looking forward to learning some new things tonight! Yay for knitting!
