Yesterday, my little boy turned 10 months old. It is hard to believe how quickly the year has gone by, but I have enjoyed every minute of being at home with my precious boy. Knowing that I will be going back to work in two months, I would not trade this year for anything in the world. I have enjoyed all of the special moments that we have shared from reading books to learning how to crawl.
Playing with the mustache we got in the mail for his birthday party.
I am amazed at all the things that he is now able to do:
He loves turning the pages while we are reading a book.
He loves to dance and clap to music -- any kind of music.
He is able to stand by himself and walk with a little help.
He can now crawl over things -- he is a small guy, so this is a big achievement.
There are also so many more things to love about him because of the interaction that we now get with each other. Don't get me wrong, I loved him from the beginning, but it was a different kind of love than what I feel for him now. He is able to giggle and play with me, and I feel like our personalities are perfect for each other -- for now at least.
I look forward to the next two months with each other before I head back to work, and before my little boy turns into a one year old boy :)
Right now, he loves September by Earth, Wind & Fire.
We discovered them on Ellen's birthday show.
Don't they just grow up so quickly? I don't actually have children, I have a niece and nephew who are 2 & 5 and they are just so amazing and clever but I swear the 5 year old was just born yesterday. It is as if they make time fly!

They really do, Brandi! I work with preschool children at a childcare centre, and it is so crazy seeing the kids that I was with in the baby room when I first started working there leave for school. It goes by way too fast for me.
DeleteOh my goodness, what a cutie! Love that mustache :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Chelsea! I love those mustaches too...so much fun :)
DeleteHe is such a cute little boy ♥
ReplyDeleteMakes me a little bit frighten to know how quick this would all be gone...
Thanks, Steffi! It's hard, but you really have to cherish every single moment, knowing that it will soon be gone.
