Kevin turned 10 months old yesterday. It's amazing to me to watch his gradual progression from baby to toddler. As I watch him and learn about him I'm amazed to discover how he is so much of his own person but yet so much of Ken and I. He is such a happy boy, such a snuggly, cuddly, lovey boy. It seems like he does something new every day. He weighs 19 lbs, 10 oz. He's 30 inches long. He has 5 teeth with another close to coming through. He had eye surgery in January which the results of have been amazing. We haven't had any problems with mucus since the surgery. Some of the adorable things he does: if he hears Ken or I laughing he will start laughing too. He tells on himself, if he's doing something he's not supposed to or is into something off limits we hear him get really quiet then all of a sudden he'll giggle. He LOVES to blow raspberries, and this is also the way he tells us if he doesn't like what he's eating. If we start saying "No No No" He will start shaking his head, and he loves to dance!! He also loves to carry things around in his mouth. Some of the favorite things he loves to do are: He absolutely LOVES to climb stairs (Mom is always behind him), he loves to snuggle with his blankets, loves to play with his race track he got for Christmas. And without further ado here are some pictures of our beautiful 10 month old!!

Blanket in one hand bottle in the other. Typical bedtime routine snuggle time with Daddy.
Playing on the floor with Mom. (Look at his top teeth, he has 3 up there)
A sock. One of the many things he will pick up and carry around in his mouth.
At the aquarium with Daddy!
Our days can be pretty hectic and at times I wish we didn't have to go to work. I'm thankful he get's to come with me but I still have the typical working mom guilt because even though he comes with me I still feel like he doesn't get the one on one time he deserves. We try to do something special and fun every weekend and whenever Ken can come get him he does so that Kevin can at least have one on one time with one of us. I still constantly feel blessed that we have such an amazing boy who brings us so much love and happiness.
He sounds like such a sweetheart and a fun baby! I love what you said about him being all his own, yet you see yourselves in him. I feel the same way. :)
