Happy 10 Months Beckett!

Ok, I'm a day late with this one. There was a bunch of excitement yesterday because our close friends, Blake and Ashley, welcomed their first little baby boy into this world! Congratulations, and welcome Tucker! We went to visit them in the hospital, and I didn't remember to take his monthly picture until he was in bed. Oh well, it's just one day.

Anyways, holy crap. Beckett is 10 months old. He's into the double digits. Two months until he is ONE YEAR OLD. That blows my mind. I love the stage he's at right now. It's so easy to make him laugh, and seeing those little teeth in his smile just melts my heart. He's amazing. Here's the highlights of this past month:

• He's still a crawling maniac. He's getting really speedy, too. He now pulls up on everything. The couch, his toy chest, me, anything he can get a good grip on, really. He's started cruising on the furniture a bit, too. Just one step closer to walking!
• He still just has the same four teeth. Two on top and two on bottom. No new ones yet, although he has been a little more crabby and drooly (real word?) lately, so maybe something's creeping up.
• He's eating all big boy food now, and still getting bottles, too. No more baby purees for him! He hasn't encountered a food he won't eat yet, including dog food. He's tried to eat it twice, and gets super mad when I take it out of his mouth. He'll thank me someday.
• He sleeps through the night consistently, but is going through a phase (God, I hope it's a phase) where he's waking up early. Like 5am early. I feel lucky if we get to sleep in until 6am. Then there will be days when he blesses us with a 7am wakeup. Those days are good.

His hair is getting longer and thicker, and he's starting to look like a toddler instead of a baby, which is both heartbreaking and exciting at the same time. He likes to walk behind his little push toy, and if I could figure out how to post a video, I would show you proof. As always, I feel so lucky to be his mom. He's full of so much personality, and it just grows everyday. I can't wait to see what he does next! Now here are some pictures!

It was extremely hard to get him to sit still during these. Nearly impossible, actually.
