10 Months already?

Wow! I cannot believe that my little baby is ten months old already! He is the most amazing part of my life, and though it makes me sad to think how quickly the time has gone, it also excites me to watch him as he continues to learn:) I guess they say that, "time flies when you're having fun." If that is the case we are having a blast!!
Today we had to go do some shopping for some new comfy pants, since last week his 6m pants were just right on the edge of too short. It is funny though that he is so short, that at 10m he was still wearing 6m pants. Oh well, any reason to shop! While we were out, Charlie also got a new r/c helicopter for his 10m birthday. It is a toy for him and daddy to play with. He was very impressed with cousin Javian's last week.
I finally completed Charlie's squishy board today also. It is just another preschool lesson plan that won't leave my head. I believe Kindercare curriculum titled it, "a symphony of color," which was always a little weird to me. It is made by partially filling baggies with corn syrup, food coloring, and glitter. You double bag each bag and tape the openings over. Then you tape each bag to a poster board and tadahhh "a symphony of colors." Charlie was just about to go down for a nap when I was finishing it up, but in true Charlie fashion, he fought sleep to stay up and play with his new squishy board. However, after the second time he tipped over and face planted into the floor along with falling over and hitting the wall because he was so tired, he had to lose the battle and go to sleep. I guess that was the literal meaning to the phrase, "hitting the wall." He is so much like me in that he wants to continue doing what he is doing all the time. He doesn't want to wake up in the morning, or go to sleep at night. Just like his stubborn mama! Which explains my 2:00am blogging.
We are supposed to be receiving our first real snow fall of the year this weekend so who knows... We may have snowy pictures up soon as well!!
