Mason is 10 months old now...SO hard to believe!! I have always heard time flies when you have a child, and it is no joke! He is catching up very fast to the other 10 month babies. We were told it would take around 2 years for him to totally catch up physically and mentally. He is currently on ALL of the height and weight charts(for those that don't know...they usually have to adjust a preemie to their due date rather than actual birthdate so that they will be on the chart at all) On our first visit to the doctor he didnt even make it on the chart ADJUSTED let alone actual age...now he is 25% on height and about 7% on weight without the adjustment. YAY!
Mason refuses to crawl...REFUSES! He finally decided it is okay to roll on his tummy sometimes, but prefers the back and will scoot to where he needs to get that way. He sits like a pro and can stand holding on to tables and such...one handed even and sometimes no hands for a few seconds. He'll take steps holding our hands. I am very convinced he'll walk before he crawls. Yikes!
He has no teeth, but wants to eat real food SO bad. I think he would attempt a steak IF I would let him. But for now mushed food it is...he loves his food! They say by this time he should be down to 4-5 bottles a day...yeah right. Still every 3 hours...besides night night time! Speaking of which, he is a good sleeper. He even let me sleep in until 9-9:30 this weekend. :)
Besides his everyday "talking" that he does, he says a few words with purpose..."dada" (daddy), "ba-ba" (bottle), "pa" (paci- but he'll only whisper this one- HA!), "ay" (yay), and an occasional "boo-ah" (book). He says "ma-ma" but only when he is crying or in his ramblings. Ahhhh!
What else...we are about to start his second year of RSV shots...poor guy has to get a shot every month for the next 7-8 months. Not looking forward to that, but much better than getting RSV.
Anyway, that is an update on Mason...he is doing great and just the cutest little guy i have ever laid eyes on. How can you love someone that much?
Everything else is busy busy busy. Lots going on until January so don't expect me here much...not that I am anyway.
