A bit more about Little Ol' Me: August 2016

Well, now that Grey is almost 11 months old, I figured that I finally should post about his 10th month. LOL. There's been lots of changes going on in our household the last couple of months, but I'll save that for a later post. For now, let's talk about...

{Milestones: Crawling & First Two Teeth}

Grey has been a very busy boy! He started out the month accomplishing be up and on all fours...and ended the month with crawling. He also acquired his first two teeth (bottom central incisors). I guess he really won't be a 16 year old eating pureed food. Everyone kept telling me that, but I wasn't believing it. LOL.

All of this activity has led to two exhausted parents. *Yawn* Grey has been a solid sleeper from the get go, but this has gone by the wayside with all the changes he's been going through. Apparently teething & large developmental milestones, such as crawling, result in decreased shut eye.

Another first this month...a babysitter! Woo hoo! We finally took the plunge! It was a scary experience for a new mom, but well worth the time away for sure. Grey was quite as excited as Mom & Dad though. One of the characteristics of 9-10 month olds is separate anxiety, and Grey is no exception. He does great when we leave him at daycare but not with folks that he doesn't see regularly. He cried for about 30 min or so the first time we left him, but he was good after that. That just means we need to employ her more regularly, so Grey gets used to her, right?!?! :)

We also took a random trip back to St. Louis this month. I told you we were busy. Here's a few pics of Grey with his grandparents & great grandparents...
