10 Months New

You're 10 months old today. It's been quite the month. Who am I kidding- it's been a day!  We rang in your 10th month this morning with a phone call to the doctor about your latest snotty nose, your little eye-drainage, and your randomly appearing rash on your legs. Oh let's not forget your little fever, or the fact that your daddy was quarantined to the bedroom with the stomach bug. You and I were real careful all day to avoid him, but it would only be perfect when you started spewing like that fair scene in The Sandlot tonight after you enjoyed puréed broccoli and carrots topped with a cheese stick and yogurt bites.
Oh delicious. 
I still think you are awesome though. You are all over the place now- crawling at max speeds, pulling up on everything, and nearly giving this mama a heart attack on a daily basis. I love how you are repeating sounds we say, including a very often "uh-oh."
You are eating everything (including leaves) and are extremely determined.
You are so loved- by all of us. You are so loved that sometimes even you can't stand it.
You have spent time with so many friends this month. It's been good for mama and daddy to spend time with friends too. 

I've started thinking about your first birthday, and I can't believe it will be here before we know it. This year has flown by and as hard as some of the moments have been (especially those first ones), this has been the greatest year of my life. I wouldn't trade a single moment. Well maybe the one from after dinner tonight. But other than that, I wouldn't trade it for the world.  
You are the best part of me.
