10 Months Old

Luke is another month older and learning new things daily. I feel like he is really starting to understand me when I speak to him and is still just as happy as ever. Here are his new tricks:

• Walks several steps at a time, with the most being 8 (still pretty wobbly though)
• Stands easily
• Can get into a standing position by himself, without holding on to anything
• Eats mostly table food, new favorite is black beans
• Drinks from a straw cup by himself
• Has 3 teeth coming in on top (the main one coming in is actually a side tooth, which looks kinda funny and I am not so sure if this is normal) =)
• Takes his pants off while he is suppose to be napping
• "Talks on the phone"- when given the phone he puts it up to his ear
• When someone says to him "So big", he raises his hands in the air
• When you ask him where Ernie is, he will look towards the dog (most of the time)
• Understands "No", but doesn't always listen to this instruction =)

In 2 more months my baby will be 1. I can't believe it. He is turning into such a little person and has the cutest little personality. Here are some shots from the week.

What a handsome boy!

Last weekend we took Luke for his first swim. We went to Tula and Pop's to test out the water. Luke loved it and I see many pool days in our future.

One cool dude. =)
