Matthew at 10 Months

At 10 months old, Matthew weighs just under 23 pounds (75th percentile) and he's just over 30 inches tall (95th percentile). He is such a sweet baby! He gives THE best hugs and slobbery kisses. He waives "hello" and "bye-bye" and lights up the room with a smile whenever one of his favorite people walks in. Matthew loves to eat and always wants to try whatever we are eating. He loves to giggle and babble. His first word was "go!" and it's just so fitting because he is our little explorer. He always wants to be on the go - and has been know to crawl up the 2 flights of stairs in our house as many as 4 times a day. (With close supervision, of course!) Matthew crawls as fast as he can towards loud noises, open gates or uncovered electrical outlets! He's always running headlong and with exuberance into danger. He understands "no" and sometimes complies. He loves to go for rides in the wagon, to swing and to play "pat-a-cake" but his favorite entertainment by far is watching his big sister! A moment of her attention is heaven.
