10 Months Old

It is so hard for me to keep up with what all Jackson is doing at 10 months, but I will give it a shot.

Drinking out of a sipping cup most all of the time.
Hitting golf balls with his golf clubs and chasing down the ball only to hit it again.
Getting on to the pups - when they get in his face he waves his hand at them and yells gibberish
Can kind of wave bye bye and say it (we are working on it)
Still has his altered crawl on slick floors.  He crawls normal on carpet.

Looking less like his father and more like just Jackson
I'm afraid he has a Dickerson personality.  When he does not like something he throws his head back and screams.  Scary, I know.
Still only has 2 little bottom teeth, but he is drooling a lot more so I think he is cutting more teeth.
Eats big people food when we break it up into small bite size pieces.
Does not like anything slimy in texture like bananas or pasta, but loves English muffins, Cheerios, and baby Cheetos.
He still eats like a horse.  At night when we get home at 5:30 I will give him 3 tubs of Gerber crawler baby food since he eats so early and we don't eat dinner until 7.  But he will eat whatever we are eating at 7:00 too!  Mainly chicken and fish and then some veggies.
He is on whole milk.
Holds his own drink ALL the time.

Pulls up and stands
Thinks about taking steps, but decides against it and crawls
Nana and Papa taught him how to do patty cake this weekend.  He just claps and claps! A.D.O.R.A.B.L.E
He will give you 5 on command

Still only says da-da, but doesn't know what it means. And for all of you out there that try to get him to say your name next, just know that if he says your name before he says ma-ma your visitation rights will be revoked. He has already broken my heart by saying da-da first AND only wanting a bottle so I would highly recommend you help him say ma-ma next. (ok, off my tangent now).

He is not as clingy any more.  Thank goodness that only lasted a few weeks. He wants me when he is tired or sick, but he is back to going to whomever. It does feel good when he lays his little head down on me when he is sleepy!


Got a little carrots on the nose



Sleeping through the night again now that he is not sick any more. 7:30 to 6:00! It's the biggest blessing!
He loves looking outside.
His favorite toy is obviously his golf clubs.
He weighs 17 pounds and wears anything from a 6-18 month outfits.
Still loves music and loves to dance.

He is the most handsome and happy little boy.  He is so loved and such a blessing to everyone.  I want to keep him this age forever, but can't wait to see what God has in store for him.
