10 Months

Happy 10 Months Marco!

I almost dropped the ball in getting Marco's 10 month pictures taken. All of a sudden life became busier, and his sleeping schedule became more consistent - and that left me with very little time to find moments to take a couple amateur photos of this boy and his growth.

Latest Achievements:
* Climbs upstairs
* Sneaks away
* Makes messes in everything
* Has a great set of vocal chords. Marco never cries, but is so loud at whining and grunting. I swear that the neighbors wake up when they hear him moaning.

Milestones:
* Sometimes says Ma-ma
* Sometimes says Da-da
(neither on command)
* Went from being in the 4th percentile (for weight) to the 6th percentile

Teeth:
* Four

Clothes Sizes:
* Pajamas: 9 Months
* Clothes: 6 Months
* Socks: everything's too small (picture is proof of that)

Favorites:
* Loves his blankets and won't go to sleep without them.
* Food: Guacamole, Cheese, Applesauce, Bread, Bananas

Quirks:
* Goes to bed between 5:00 and 5:30 pm.
* Hates cuddling or being held close or tight.
* Won't fall asleep on Mommy, but loves to fall asleep on Daddy.
* Very much a Daddy's boy as he prefers to be held or spend time around his Daddy instead of his Mommy.

I feel like Marco sleeps so much and hasn't been as communicative as Lily was at this age. Any moment he is going to surprise us with his words and his interaction, but until then... we will take any snuggles or playtime we can get with this extremely energetic baby!
