10 months!

Miller is 10 months old today!  This month was a big one for him.  During this month, he has started sitting up on his own, is crawling pretty well, is consistently eating solids, got his first hair cut, and moved up to a big boy car seat (just a bigger one, he is still rear-facing and will be for a while).

Miller is weighing in just shy of 20 lbs.  He is 27 inches long.  He is wearing size 3 diapers, 12 month clothing, and size 3 shoes (yes, I finally bought the boy shoes!).

He was sleeping so well at night, and now we seem to have reverted back to waking up a few times during the night.  Naps are getting better though.

He still has 2 teeth on the bottom.  I'm guessing we will be seeing some top teeth soon because he is drooling so much and chewing on everything.

Eating yummy carrots in big brother's high chair.

We are all enjoying the nicer weather and love our daily walks.

Enjoying sitting in the highchair for dinner.

Swinging for the first time!

This little guy is such a joy!  I always say that God knew I needed this sweet boy in my life, especially after everything we've been through.  Both my boys here provide different healing aspects with their sweet personalities- Declan is so funny and makes me laugh even on my worst days and Miller is just so sweet!  I think he knows I need that so much right now.  Last night the boys were taking a bath together and I got so overwhelmingly sad and just thought, "There should be another one there."  It's a hard emotion to explain, to be ever so thankful for the children here and to be heartbroken for the one not here, both at the same time.

We love you, Miller James, and are so thankful for your precious life!
