I should probably update, but things have been (thankfully) surprisingly *normal* here lately. No great milestones, no new teeth, he's not reading Shakespear or reworking Einstein's theory of relativity. He's just being a cute, lovable, sometimes cranky 10-month old baby boy.

He likes to "sing" - he's stuck on da-da as the sylable of the week, he carries the (barely used) bottle brush around - chewing on the handle end and "sweeping" the coffee table with the bristles. He's still not thrilled with me leaving his sight - but we keep working on that, too.

He's starting to figure out how the sippy cup works - with a little bit of water in it each day.

But that's about it! We're looking forward to seeing his reaction to tearing up wrapping paper - and whether or not he'll let me actually hold a lit candle at the candlelight service on Christmas Eve.
