Anderson: Ten Months

Okay...back on track. I'm actually going to do a post on time since Mr. Man turned 10 months old just over a week ago. So, here it goes.

Weight: Probably around 20 pounds

Length: Who knows??

Milestones:
Mommy's FAVORITE milestone from the last month is that Anderson has started to give KISSES! They are often open-mouthed and slobbery. But they are also pretty much the best thing ever. Mommy has discovered that if she sings (particularly Ariel's song from The Little Mermaid), Anderson will rush over to her, pull himself up, and plop a million kisses on her mouth. So, you better believe that Mom sings that song with a great deal of frequency. Another milestone is Anderson's newfound discovery of "pointing." He points at everything, and it is hilarious. The cutest use of this skill is when he points at big sister, Wren. Mommy will say, "Where's Wren?" and Anderson will point his tiny, chubby finger right at his sister. Mommy thought it was a fluke the first couple of times, but he does it pretty consistently now. Another not-so-cute milestone is Anderson's newly acquired food aversions. Anderson has to inspect EVERY single bite of food that goes into his mouth, and will turn his head if it seems uninteresting. If, by some miracle, he does take a bite of something, he (very frequently) will spit it out once it hits his tongue. It seems to be a texture issue, which Mommy likes to blame on Daddy, because he also has WAY too many texture aversions for a 32 year old man. 

Loves:
Anderson's #1 love right now is his sister's toy mop/broom set. It is kept in his closet, and anytime Anderson is set down in his bedroom, he crawls to the closet, slides the door open, and pulls the thing out. He especially loves the broom, which he swings around with a great deal of enthusiasm (Mom's head can attest to this). Anderson also continues to love people and is at ease with everyone. He will go to ANYBODY, and does so with a smile. 

Hates:
Anderson has learned how to express his frustrations this last month. He will grunt his displeasure whenever he doesn't approve of something. The most frequent recipients of his frustrated grunts are his sister (when she steals a toy from him) and his carseat. Other than that, Anderson remains a happy guy about 99.9% of the time.
