10 Months Old!

On August 24th, Jackson turned 10 months old!  He's in double digits!  He has been very busy.  He is so so so close to crawling.  He gets on his knees, rocks back and forth, and straightens his legs so he is in downward facing dog.  He is very busy with his many toys.




He loves to bang toys together, throw balls and watch them roll, drop things from up high, and push buttons to hear sounds.  Here are some other new things I've noticed:
  • Jackson talks all the time, now saying dada and yaya.
  • He is eating many solid foods including lunch meat, cheese, yogurt all kinds of fruits and veggies, crackers, goldfish, and raisins.
  • Jackson is very good at drinking water from his sippy cup.
  • Jack has begun to spit his baby food when it is fed to him, because it's fun, not because he dislikes it.
  • He picks everything up with a pincer grasp.
  • He tends to use his left hand the majority of the time.
  • Jackson gets very excited when mommy and daddy come home from work, smiling, putting his hands in the hair, and laughing.
  • J gives us kisses when we ask for them.
  • Jackson loves the ABC song and any other song we sing to him.  It is always a sure fire way to calm him down.
  • When in his bouncer, Jack will push the music buttons, put his hands in the hair, and dance.
  • Jackson loves to push buttons on his musical toys and dance to those, but will not dance to any other music.
  • He enjoys playing with straws.
  • Jack easily rolls over from his tummy to his back and back to his tummy, and can sit up.  Often times we will find him sitting up in his crib.
  • Jackson gets very excited when going up or down the stairs, especially when there is a familiar face in front of or behind him.  
  • Jackson still loves Willow and tries to get his hands on her as often as possible.
  • Jack often splashes very vigorously in the bath, both with hands and legs.  
  • He rubs his eyes with closed fists when he's tired.  
Jack is such a big boy now and is growing so fast!  Before I know it he will be one!  I love you Jackson!
