doing it again. due november 24th.

ten months of bob

physically: bob doesn't have his 10 month well appointment until friday, but last month he had a doc appt. at children's hospital and he was 30 inches, 19 lbs 10 oz or something like that. i am excited to see his stats at this appointment.

teeth: little bob has 8 teeth now! 8!!!! and now those darn molars are on their way out. lots of hand chewing and motrin.

eats: this kid is eating everything. i am still giving him fruit/veggie pouches which he loves. usually for breakfast he has 2 eggs and a pouch or cut up fruit. around lunch he will have 2 pouches, or 1 pouch and some kind of noodle. and dinner he usually eats whatever we are having. ie. chicken or fish and potatoes.

sleeps:about 11.5 hours. he couldn't have done better with the time change. woke up right when he was supposed to.

wears: 6-12 month in some clothing. in carters brand he is in 12 month.

loves: eating, playing, using the walker to walk around his "baby jail." bath time.

hates: getting dressed. hands down this is the thing he hates the most. he screams when you get him dressed.

vocally: this is my favorite part. he says "mum" now. and "momma." i LOVE it. he's been saying "dada" and "bob." thats all the words he says. he still does tons of babbling which is super cute.


this was bob's first halloween. he dressed as a chicken. it was pretty cute. his dad and i dressed as farmers. we went trick or treating for about 30 minutes with some friends then called it a night and went home. 

i thought it was starting to cool down permanently, but i guess it was only for a few days. at least we got to bundle him up for that. i love cooler weather and i hope it comes back soon.

nine months of bob

physically: he is so dang big! he doesn't have a doc appt till next month, but i am guessing he's 18+ pounds and maybe 29 inches. love love love my big boy.

teeth: 6 teeth. 2 more on the way out.

eats: everything. doesn't turn down anything at all right now. such a chunk.

sleeps: in the crib. 7pm-6am. naps are all over the place right now because of teething. ugh! 

wears: still fits in 6-9 month clothing as well as a few 12 month shirts. i guess it depends on where the clothing is from. 

loves: being chased on the rug while crawling, and playing with cars. such a boy already! 

hates: having his clothing taken off as well as diaper changes. also dislikes being taken out of the bath.

vocally: he babbles so much. he also says dada, and "yea yea yea yea yea." 

this coming week on tuesday he has a doctor appt with a specialist at children's hospital. i don't want to get into it too much here, but just send positive thoughts his way. (promise he's okay) 

i think about this day every single day. i love you bob.

8 months of bob

physically: he is so big! weight:17lbs 12oz  height:27.5 inches

teeth: this past month has pretty much been hell. teething non stop. he has 2 that came in on top, and there is two more coming in on top as well as two more coming in the bottom. so. many. teeth.

eats: fruit and veg purees. doesn't really turn down any thing i offer. and has started eating some "big people foods". we've done noodles, sausage,toast, and he even grabbed a cookie out of my hand to take a bite.

sleeps: still in his crib. sleeping 7-6:30. with the teething we've been having some rough nights. waking up an hour after being put down. and sometimes waking up around 4ish crying. my poor guy :(

wears: 6-9 month clothing still. i have a feeling he may stay this size for a while.

loves: playing with all of his toys, loves jumping in the jumper, walking around outside while being held, and mimicking mommys silly noises.

hates: being in the stroller right now. he cries after we start moving in it.

vocally: lots of babbling, mimicking noises mommy makes, and making some new squeal noises.

bob is now crawling all over the place. it's crazy! he moves so so fast all over the place.can't really leave him anywhere. he also finally is getting some top teeth. i can't help but to feel a little bit sad. he seems so grown up to me now. no more gummy smiles. he still is super cute though.

bob had a flu shot today. he actually did really well. cried for about 5 seconds if that and was done. back to smiles and giggles. total relief. i thought he would scream and cry a lot like he normally does. 

7 months of Bob

physically: he is getting so big. 16 pounds 10oz, and 26 inches long. 

teeth: two teeth. and i am pretty sure there is two more on the way. tons and tons of drool. cranky. good times (not really)

eats: just about everything. still on formula, but also eats purees.  he also started eating "adult" food. he loves sausage, toast, rice, chicken, and beans.

sleeps: in his crib. he was doing really well, sleeping 7-7 but lately the sleep has been regressing. waking up anywhere between 5:30am-7. ugh.

wears: still in 6-9 month clothing. 

loves: playing with his dad. seeing the cats. being picked up and put by the mirror ( he loves looking at himself). jumping in the jumper. and laying in the swing. 

hates: i can't really think of anything that he hates right now. nothing really comes to mind.

vocally: he is babbling SO much. it's pretty cute. he also started blowing spit bubbles while talking. i love it.

he just started crawling!!!!!!!!!!!! like two days ago on august 1st. i was volunteering when his dad sent me a video of him crawling. super crazy! makes me really happy to see him hitting these milestones but at the same time pretty sad that my baby is growing so quick. 

he's also been really sick. for about the past 2.5 weeks he's had super bad diarrhea. i took him to the doctor and she said there is a virus going around but they are wanted to do some labs so we are waiting on the results. he also just got a cold and last night was one of the worst nights we've ever had. so much screaming no matter what we did. holding him, rocking him, letting him lay down, he just cried. it was the worst. hopefully he starts feeling better soon. 

6 months of bob!

physically: he is so big now! my arms hurt when i hold him for long periods of time. i've also had to adjust the straps on the car seat twice now. crazy crazy.

teeth: he has TWO teeth now. TWO! both came at once. and i think there is more on the way. lots of drool! and lots of chewing. on everything.

eats: this kid LOVES food. he is currently eating puree'd foods but i also give him little snack crackers every meal as well. his favorite puree'd food so far is mangos. this kid has mangos everyday and can't seem to get enough of it. 

sleeps: bob is doing really well. sleep training last month was the best decision ever. he goes down at 7pm and usually sleeps till 7. we just moved so he's been having a few rough nights and waking up earlier than he should. theres been a handful of 4:30-5am mornings. ugh.

wears: this kid is now in 6 month clothing. i packed away all this 3-6 month stuff because all the onesies and tshirts were too small. i want him to stop! stay little forever bob. 

loves: he loves eating (especially mangos). t.v in the mornings. his dad making him laugh. mj kitty. 

hates: i don't know that he has any hates right now. i'm trying to think of something, and i don't think there is anything.

vocally:he is babbling so much these days. he makes the loudest noises. it's the best. 

so much has happened in this past month. in addition to bob growing like a weed, we bought a house! so exciting. we officially moved all our stuff in yesterday. now we are working on unpacking, and making our homestead more comfortable.
