Ephram at Ten Months


Ephram is growing up so quickly.  It is hard to believe that my little tiny baby boy is almost ready to celebrate his first birthday!  He is so playful, so good natured, and so cute.  Now, if only he would sleep through the night.  Here is a summary of where he was on his ten-month birthday.

The Stats:
I have given up on trying to measure his height for the time being.  Maybe soon he will be able to stand still enough for us to get an upright measurement.  Until then, I'm going to wait for the doctor's appointments.  He doesn't have another well-child check-up until January.  Still, I measured his weight.

Weight - 21 lbs 10 oz

This is a gain of 5 ounces from the prior month.

Milestones:
Also this month I stopped tracking the week that he did things, but will continue to record the month that he started to do new things.  We had a fun month!  Here are some of the things he started to do...

Point at objects
Easily sit from a standing position
Add a third word to his vocabulary (dada)
Push toys and objects to walk
Play the game "Where's ___"  (which he answers by pointing at the object named)
Started using his first sign (more, which he does by touching his two pointer fingers together)

Teeth:
Ephram added one more bottom tooth in his tenth month, he now has seven teeth.

Food:
Ephram is a big eater now.  He nurses about four times during the day and eats breakfast, lunch, afternoon snack and dinner.  He eats everything he has before plus:
Yogurt
Bread
Apricots
Spinach

Favorites:
Song - Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star
Book - I Love to Laugh
Activity Center - Play table
Toy - MegaBloks Dump Truck
Activity - Television

Nicknames:
Bruiser
Little Bug
Boo-boo

Here are some pictures from his tenth birthday!
