We're in double digits folks!!!

Roman is officially 10 months old today! He now weighs around 23 lbs! He's such a happy little boy!!

Over the past month he has gotten 4 more teeth! Santa brought Roman his two front teeth for Christmas!! He now has 6 teeth total!

Roman is now eating almost all people food. He officially does not like baby food and will not take it! Eating a meal now takes almost an hour! He will throw food in the floor and swat your hand sometimes if you're trying to feed him by the spoon. It's a fun little game! He is loving to feed himself with his hands mostly! Luckily we have Captain to come in and clean up the huge mess after every meal!

Roman is still nursing first thing in the morning and then getting approximately 28 oz of formula throughout the day.

He is standing on his own a lot! He falls a lot too! We've seen him take a step on his own without holding onto anything several different times, but then he falls right back down. Progress!!! Matt says that training camp 2010 is coming up for walking!

Everything is "da da"! I repeat, EVERYTHING!! It's so cute, cause we will now always try to get him to say "momma" and he comes back with "da da". In due time!

He's getting so much more aware and really noticing his surroundings. Roman will laugh at funny pictures or situations so much more. I love it! He also has shown fear. He got a little singing penguin for Christmas and is absolutely terrified of it! If he sees it, he will crawl over to me and hold me so tight. It's kind of cute.

Roman is still going to Montessori school 3 days a week. I just got informed that we have a new huge project at work and I can no longer work from home on Tuesdays. Bummer!! Matt is going to try to work his schedule so he can stay with him on Mondays.

Every day with our sweet boy is a new adventure! He's growing so fast!! We are so blessed to have such a healthy, happy little fella!!
