Eleven Months

Lucan turned 11 months on the 24th.

To make this easy and because I need to hit the hay, here's a screen shot from my Instagram post of how I summed up the past month:

Crying. all. The. Time.

My baby boy cries all the time.

If he isn't sleeping or nursing or maybe being fed some solids, he's crying. Sure sometimes he can be distracted by something for about 15 minutes before he cries again. Or maybe if I could hold him all the time he might not cry. Or just drive somewhere. 

But he's 11 months old and he cries a lot and it's wearing me down. I thought he would be over this by now but he's not.

Ten Months

Mr. Lucan turned 10 months on 3/24. 

From your little nose to your little toes, I can't get enough of your cuteness. 

You aren't crawling yet but you can sit up for a while. You have just started spinning around on your belly to reach for something you want. You act like you want to get out of my arms and crawl even though you aren't mobile yet.

You have started clapping and it's adorable.

You like puréed foods so it's really enjoyable making baby food for you. You really liked the gumbo I made for Mardi Gras.

You have 5 teeth now and have tried eating some puffs. 

You still scream plenty especially when you've had enough sitting in the grocery cart. 

People comment on how happy and smiley you are. I agree and sometimes I say that you are so happy until you're not.

You have no problem letting us know loudly how you feel. I'm glad you know what you want and need and you try hard to let us know.

I love you so very much and I thank God for you every day.
