Grant 11 months

His new favorite word is Na (for no). He hears it so so so much and now he says it right back! Usually with a smile! 

Grant is really starting to play and can even engage with Tyler, they'll chase each other around the house or share the same toy for a few minutes without a fight. Can't wait to watch them keep growing and getting into new adventures together. 

Grant has recently taken a big interest in books and will bring them to whoever is around to read to him. He even signs "please" while holding the book! We got a book called "old hat, new hat" from the library recently and he literally squeals as the first page is read to him. 

He recently had his first fever...stemming from a sore throat of some sort. We then experienced the worst stomach bug sickness to date! I think grant and I picked it up at the doctors office when I took him in for said fever. Ugh! It wreaked havoc on our house for days and took us all a few days to get back to life. I hope it built up his immune system! Silver linings are a stretch sometimes. 

Grant 10 months

ThWe have a 10 month old walker! A few short days after reaching the 10 mo milestone, Grant started taking his first wobbly steps! 

We also have a 10 month old talker! Mama was his first word...yay! Dada came shortly after. Ba (ball) is also on the short list of words he says.

I dare say that sleeping is starting to come around. He naps twice a day now as opposed to 3 times. He wakes up once a night now as opposed to 2 or 3 times. 

He is still hovering around 17 pounds and is definitely smaller than Tyler was at the same age. I can tell easily because Grant wears all of Tyler's old clothes, and he's starting to have a hard time keeping up with his brothers growth. I think he's going to be our small and mighty guy. 

He's got 3 teeth, bottom two and top right, plus the 4th top left appears to be about to break through. His hair is growing and curling like crazy. The front is all curly while the back is perfectly straight, the exact opposite of his older brother who at this same time had curls in the back and perfectly straight and organized in the front. Because of his curls, Grant looks a bit haphazard...but it kind of fits his style at this point. He's rambunctious and interested in all the places he's not supposed to be!
