Whoops! 10 Months!

I just realized that I never posted a 10 month update, and he will be 11 months tomorrow!

What a month for LX! He has started crawling like a maniac!  He is so fast and efficient.  He has learned to pull himself up to stand, and he loves to wake up and stand in his crib. He now has 6 teeth total: 2 front top, 2 front bottom, and one on either side of his front top teeth. His smile is even more adorable. He will walk if we hold his hands.  He is babbling so many words, and he makes new sounds often. In fact, he is rarely silent.  He loves to show people how he can make noises on his arm, and the more they laugh, the louder he does it! He continues to love the beach and exploring. He loves to explore EVERYTHING! At his 9 month appointment, he was 20.3 lbs. and 29 inches! We have a big boy! :-)

Vacation Pictures!

We spent 4 days with Dave's family in Maine.  We had a truly wonderful time.  While it was not relaxing as past years have been, LX certainly made it memorable. Enjoy!

Finalization Update!

We FINALLY have a court date! On Wednesday, July 24th and 9 am, LX will legally become our son.  While he has always been ours in our hearts, it will be great to have this last legal hurdle cleared.  While it has been a LONG time from the beginning of the journey to parenthood, it has been SO worth it!

He has been doing so many new things that I can't wait until his 11 month update.  He pulls himself up to stand on anything he can reach.  He loves to climb, which causes his Mama to panic!  He is fearless.  He is also a total lovey baby.  Dave taught him how to give kisses, and they make me melt.  We are just so in love.
