Happy 10 Months!

Ethan turned 10 months old on Sunday, and I still cannot believe it! He will be one year old in less than 2 months OMG! He is such a beautiful, sweet, stinky, messy, squishy, adorable, loving, hair-pulling, shoulder biting little guy! I am so blessed that God chose me to be his momma...unless he is hungry! Then you better get that kid some food or else haha! Speaking of food - unless you plan to share don't even think about eating while he is awake or around you. He loves table food and after my batch of homemade babyfood is gone, I may just go ahead an switch him over to that full time.

At 10 months, he has done many things that Abby never did at this point. Try to be an electrician and plug things into sockets, open all the cabinets that are child proof locked (go figure), eaten cake, a donut, texted or called friends ...haha! He loves cottage cheese, cheese, chicken, apples, pears, bananas, yogurt - pretty much whatever you give him. He is a speedy little crawler and can now stand alone for 10 seconds or so at a time. I am estimating that on the my 11 month post or sooner to say I have a walking little guy, since he seems to be about a month-ish behind what his sissy did.

Onto my silly 2-year-old who thinks she is 12. :-) She is so funny. Kids really do say the darndest things. Example: Seeing a piece of grass on my pant leg - "Oh no Momma, your dirty. You needa take a shower", "whaaa momma I fell and hurt my butt. Will you kiss my butt!" You see what I mean don't you! And she dances nonstop...no wonder she is such a tiny little gal. Christmas music and movies are a real hit with her right now. If I can capture it on video, I will try to catch her singing her fa la la la la la la's it's too funny!

BORING!

Suzy Homemaker is who I have been the last few weeks! Don't get me wrong I have been pretty crafty my whole life and always have loved to create, cook, and try new things. About 3 weeks ago I got pretty stir-crazy and wanted to go buy some new window treatments for my bedroom. Instead of getting a spanking (haha!) from my hubbie for spending money for that, I decided to dust off my trusty old sewing machine while one kiddo was napping and re-create my current ones. My old ones were red dupioni silk with a chocolate stripe at the bottom. I just revamped them back cutting them into valances. Looks great and makes the room look even bigger...and even more sunshine can come in now...which I love! I have been pretty obsessed recently with cooking different baby foods for Ethan too! I did this with Abby but not these combos. I did butternut squash with onion & cinnamon, rosemary-thyme chicken with whole wheat pasta, thyme & olive oil chicken with organic carrots & whole wheat spaghetti. He LOVES them too!! I have a few other things I wanna do, but we haven't gotten to them yet. Maybe when Abs goes to MMO this week I might get a chance.

Pretty boring post :-) But here are some pictures for now!
