He's had some new foods. And although I stopped
taking pictures of every thing he eats, I couldn't resist
when we gave him some Pasta n Broccoli from my plate.
He was making the funniest expressions!
He started signing "All Done"
when he wants you to stop feeding him.
(His version is a little different than the real thing)
I still don't understand why this little angel
isn't sleeping well for me at night.
I put him to bed awake between 8 and 8:30 and then he wakes up
once or twice at night to feed. I let him cry for a little while
before I go in, but unlike Sawyer did when he was a baby,
Reuben keeps crying on and off FOREVER it seems.
I made it for an hour before, but when he was still crying,
I caved. Once I nurse him, he will go back to sleep and
won't get up until around 8AM so it is soo hard to let him cry.
But at his 9 month appt. the doctor said he
shouldn't be getting up to feed anymore.
I guess I should let him cry it out. Sigh...
He also takes two good 1-2 hour naps during the day.
One around 10AM and the other around 2PM.
Last month, as you know, he was sitting up.
Reuben is 10 Months Old!
Didn't he just turn 9 Months Old?

Putting the Diddelini pasta in his mouth
Here come the funny faces I was talking about...

Last month, as you know, he was sitting up.
Well he stands now.
I found this when I went to get him
when he awoke from his morning nap.
Unlike Sawyer, who always woke up cooing,
Reuben always wakes up crying. So sad!
So we took a happy picture later that night,
and then lowered the crib!
Reuben is always standing now.
He loves to stand by Sawyer's highchair.
This highchair makes a great obstacle course too.
He likes to stand by the chair in the kitchen.
Which also makes a good chew toy.
Even though he has plenty of chew toys.
(And still has NO TEETH!)
Those teeth must be on their way!
He also likes to stand by Tuya's Ger.
And he likes to stand by the stairs.
He likes to pole dance (kinda disturbing)
and will go up and down on the pole.
Sometimes he gets stuck in the low position.
He started climbing those stairs too.
But his new favorite place to stand is
by Sawyer's new train table.
He is so lucky that he has such a patient big brother
who lets him "play trains" with him.
You see, he "plays trains" a little differently than some.
He loves his stroller
And he loves his carseat.
And he really loves his thumb.
(Mainly when he's tired.)
He loves his Doggie!
He loves his big brother!
And when Sawyer helps Momma bring him toys and diapers.
But he especially likes it when big brother feeds him!
And he loves his Daddy!
Although he's a little unsure about some of
the hairstyles Daddy gives him.
Somehow he pulls off these weird hairdos.
Cause he's so darn cute!
We love you sweet baby boy!
But you already know that, huh?!
