Owen at 10 months on the left. For some reason, Owen seemed like he was way older at the same age than you do, at least in appearance. I think it's his hair. Or maybe just the fact that I don't want to let you go as my little baby. But, really, doesn't Owen look like such a little boy while you still look like a babe??
To kick off your 10th month, we first made a trip out to Kansas City to see your grandparents! Note: you fit just fine in the suitcase. You may have preferred to ride there versus the plane seat...
We made it to the airport in one piece! And no projectile puke on the way out the door this time.
Once there, we started playing right away. Duh.
One of the first stops we did in Kansas City was to Deanna Rose farm. It is SO cool. It's totally free (!!!!) and has so many neat things for kids. Pony rides, feeding the goats, animals... etc. Amazing.
I think you may have been a fan, too.
One day, we decided to take a walk to a park nearby grandma and grandpa's house. Here you were observing brother play baseball on a real baseball field. COOL.
And here you were looking around at Bass Pro.
Uncle Jon came over one day... you were a LITTLE skeptical at first, but warmed up eventually.
We went on a lot of walks with grandma and grandpa...
And ate a lot.
And played outside a lot.
We also introduced Owen to mini golf. (Note: I DESPISE putt putt golf... I have no
idea why, so let me just say YOU'RE WELCOME in advance for enduring this torture for you guys).
Grandma also had to get you in to the little go-car thing. You were a little small but still thought it was pretty cool.
On the way to the airport back to Seattle, you of course fell asleep in the car.
Luckily, we were still able to get you to sleep for a little while on the plane.
When we got back to Seattle, Poppy went away to his annual boy's golf trip. Mama took you and Owen to the annual touch a truck show. You still really couldn't have cared less, but Owen thought it was pretty awesome!
We tried to take a selfie. Best we could do.
We also made several solo trips to costo this month. I am brave.
During that same weekend your poppy was gone, you took a total header to the gravel driveway. Ouch.
We also continued to swim a lot this month. You still love the water. Except if you are hungry or tired.
Sometimes you even steal Miss Connie's swim toys. Silly boy.
We played with your cousins again this month... this was moments before you decided to crawl over to Dylan and chomp her nose. Literally. You drew blood.
You played with your friend Tiernan both at Miss Collette's and when they came to our house to hang out!
We've started to realize that you are our daredevil child. Literally you have no fear. We are starting to get a little worried as to what we are in for.
\\
You also started to point which was the cutest thing ever!
And, we went on tons of walks and hikes this month, which you continued to love. Thank goodness, because I love it, too! (Have I mentioned that you have about a million teeth?!)
This is basically how sleep goes at our house. Yeah. Good times.
And then other times, you just pass right out on me.
You continued to get introduced this month to food, and are still a little bit ehhhh on the whole food idea.
You mostly still prefer boobies. We'll get there eventually.
You continue to think that Owen is one of your favorite people, which is kind of good and bad since Owen also loves to torture you. At times, you are his best bud, but then 2.5 seconds later, he's beating you up.
Baths are the epic time of horror. You two are generally ok, but then Owen will push you to try to "swim." Yeah. Bath times are not super enjoyable.
You want to do whatever he is doing. In this particular picture, Owen was yelling "B, STOP!" at the top of his lungs..
and then moved to the couch to get away from you (now that you are mobile, that didn't work).
And then there are times where Owen gives you the sweetest hugs. Of course, 3 seconds after this picture, he pushed you down.
You are definitely still our easy going baby, generally just the happiest little guy. You rarely cry, even when Owen pushes you. I haven't quite decided if this is because your tough or because you are just used to it.
You are also developing quite the personality. You are funny, in your own right, and seem to have your poppy's carefree view of life. We are loving our time with you, and can't imagine our lives without you.
Love, Mama.
