10 Months Old



Wow, here we go again! Another month has passed and Noah is another month closer to turning 1 year old. Actually, he is only 4 days away from turning 11 months old. Noah has accomplished quite a bit at 10 months of age. Here is what our baby boy has been up to lately:
  • Noah has been busy growing! I do not have an accurate weight or height, but I am thinking he is close to 19lbs and 28inches (measurements compliments of bathroom scale and Daddy's tape measure)
  • Noah is beginning to wear 18 month clothing, but the majority of his clothes are still size 12 months. His little tush remains to wear a size 3 diaper.
  • Noah's hair is getting longer. Daddy is just itching to take Noah to get his 1st haircut. I think we need to wait a little longer. Maybe next month we will take a trip to see Ron the barber.
  • Noah has decided to stop eating at Moms and take his milk "to go" (breast milk in a bottle). That's right. My baby (sniffle....sniffle....) has stopped breastfeeding as of March 14th. He only takes a 8-9 oz. bottle 2 times a day. He enjoys eating baby food and can eat around 4-5 jars a day. He loves drinking juice from his big boy sippy cup. He drinks about 4-6 oz. a day. Noah especially loves it when we give him table food! I think his favorite so far are McDonalds french fries! He chews away at them using all 7 of his little baby teeth!
  • Noah's vocabulary has grown this month. He can say: dada, ma, baba (bottle), ju (juice), and uh (uh -oh, but he hasn't added the oh)
  • Noah can pull himself up to standing position as of March 9th. (see video below) We have to be careful where we place things because everything is in his reach now. For example: he loves to grab and play with the laptop, mouse for the laptop, the remote controls, or anything else we place on the coffee table. As you can imagine Noah hears a lot of "no Noah no."


  • Noah can wave "bye-bye". When he hears the word/words bye or bye-bye he starts waving. His chubby little hands are so cute!

  • Speaking of hands, I believe Noah is a "righty". He predominately uses his right hand to pick up objects and even waves bye-bye with it. He even throws things using his right hand. Sorry Daddy. No switch pitcher/hitter here.
  • The count down is on. 35 more days till Noah turns 1 year old!!! Make sure you leave April 24th open on your calendars because we will be having a Fiesta you will not want to miss!

    He is getting too big! I would tell him to stop growing, but he just gets cuter and cuter :)

    That beautiful smile of his just melts my heart -- he is the sweetest baby boy!! But, I notice that he really watches his brothers and does not want to miss any of the action. And, he loves to be outside!
