This outfit is super special to me since J and I call N the Little Man! :)

10 Month Old Little Man
Our little man is officially 10 months old.
This picture was taken on his actual 10 month old birthday. He'd just woken up that morning, which is why he has crazy bed head.
We haven't weighed him in the last few days, but I'm guessing that he's somewhere between 22-23 lbs.
He's still wearing mostly 12 month clothing. We had to go out and buy him some new pants, since the 9 month pants he was wearing were getting super short on his legs.
He loves to get under the curtains at our back door and check out the backyard.
He eats 3 meals each day (one fruit, one vegetable, and one "meal", like chicken and sweet potatoes). He also gets a couple bottles throughout the day, too. He will drink out of a sippy cup, but it's not his favorite thing and gets thrown down after a few minutes. I'm not going to push it too much. I know that we've still got time and I know that he's already growing up way too fast.
He will eat anything we give him. He's willing to try anything and so far, hasn't turned away from any food. We stay away from peaches, due to the fact that they make him throw up, but other than that, he tastes (and eats) everything that we eat. He also likes juice, his favorite being apple.
He has two teeth on the bottom, the two middle ones, and two teeth on the top, left front and left eye tooth. The front right tooth has broken through the gums and it's just a matter of it coming down. His left bottom eye tooth is right at the surface, so it won't be long before that one appears, too.
He's crawling all over the place and loves to get into everything. He still loves remotes, cell phones, electrical cords, and playstation controllers.
He has taken a few steps here and there, but nothing that would be considered his actual first step. He can walk along the couch and will switch from one piece of furniture to another if they are close enough together.
He's still facing backwards in his car seat and will continue to do so until his first birthday.
He continues to do well with his glasses. His eyes are improving and his next eye appointment is in February. We notice a big difference now between when he has glasses on and when they are off. He has much more control with his glasses.
He's doing better about sleeping through the night. Recently, he's been sleeping until 4:30 or later, having a 2 ounce bottle, and then sleeping until about 7:30. This past Saturday, he slept till 9:20 and it was AWESOME!!!!
He's still wearing size 4 diapers and wears an overnight diaper at nighttime.
He says dada, mama, nana, papa, gaga, caca, and lots more. He's also said hug, baby, and dog, but we can't make him say them. He will only do it when he wants to.
The one he uses the most is dada. If you ask him to say a word, any word, he will say dada. It never fails.
Ms. Robin taught him how to give a high five! He won't wave, but he'll give you a high five. :)
His fine motor skills are really improving. He's able to pinch and pick up tiny objects.
He's also able to bite. He's bitten my arm and Dave's finger, both not on purpose. He has also started chewing on the entertainment center. Fun times ahead.
He's become quite the Daddy's boy. Just yesterday, when Dave left to go running, N went to the door and cried, wanting his dada.
Also, when he woke up last night and Dave was holding him, N would crack his eyes just a little, see Dave, and say "dada". :)
He loves to giggle and laugh when he's in the mood. He's got an awesome laugh.
He's our little man and he was soooo worth the wait.

Circus Fun
One of our friends was able to get us free tickets to the circus.
Here's N on his way to the Arena.
Checking things about before the show.
Sorry that these picture are pretty blurry. My camera was not liking the crazy lighting.
Getting a little snack while watching the show.
Hanging out during intermission.
The VBK 3!
N LOVED it! He stayed awake and did not fuss at all during the entire circus. We were so proud of our little man.
Here's a video of him jumping right before the "real" circus started.
The venders at the circus were giving out hats if your purchased a cotton candy. We didn't buy any, but the people in front of us did. When the show was over and they left, the hat they got was left behind, so now N has his own circus hat.
