Ten Months Old!

Hi Everyone! Eli was 10 months on the 10th. I can't believe how fast time has flown by! According to the home scale, he was over 25 lbs as of the 12th, and is continuing to get into everything. In addition to crawling, he has started creeping along furniture. He has a little push cart that he uses too and can walk behind that - no problem. I think the only thing holding him back from walking at this point is his lack of balance. Once we have that down, he'll be off!

We seem to be starting to have some nice weather. Eli seems to enjoy being out in the sun (poor kid- he's been deprived of it for so long). Needless to say I am exhausted with the lousy weather we've been having. I miss spring in VT! Lilac bushes here in WY are just now in bloom.

We also seem to have finally tackled any remaining sleep issues (knock on wood!). Eli has had several successful nights without being picked up or rocked back to sleep. He seems to have figured out (finally) that being in the crib means it's time for sleep, so he snuggles in and goes to sleep with out much fuss now. Here's hoping we keep it up and are able to continue sleeping through the night.

We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of Kevin's Dad, Ron to arrive tomorrow. Kevin hasn't seen much of him over the years, and he has two grandsons here in Jackson that he hasn't met, so it should be a fun week.

I've been having trouble uploading videos to the blog lately, but will at least post some new pictures soon!
