I really wish sometimes that I could just freeze time. I wish that Landon (along with my other boys when they were that little) would stay this age... so sweet and innocent for a little longer. But, they aren't listening to my pleas to stay little. I love this stage that Landon is at. It's one of my favorites. Here are some things I love about Landon at 10 months:
*I love that he is mobile, he still army crawls about 90% of the time, and when he feels like it, he'll get up on his hands an knees and crawl. Or he'll stand up and walk along furniture, but he's still not fully mobile yet with the walking and running.
*I love that he stands up in his crib waiting for me or his Daddy to come get him in the morning or after a nap and when we open his door, he gets a huge grin on his face that's like he's saying "yay!! I'm happy you came to get me!" and then he snuggles his little head and face into my neck for a second to give me loves! Melts my heart every time!
*I love his 2 cute little teeth
*I love how he opens his mouth SO wide when he's super hungry, which is most every time he eats. He acts like we never feed him.
*I love how every time he gets in the bath, he kicks his feet as hard as he can to splash as much as possible and laughs those great belly laughs while he does it. It makes me smile.
*I love how he will stand up, and bounce up and down when he is excited or happy while playing with his toys, brothers, or just saying hi to us.
*I love how fascinated he is by this Leap Frog Table, he loves it! Sometimes he has to fight his brothers away so he can play with it, but he gets so excited when he plays with it... its so cute!

*I love that he already follows his big brothers around and wants to do everything they are doing.
*I love that his brothers let him play with them... most of the time. :)
*I love that he is starting to love real people food. If he sees us eating something, he had just got to have a bite... or a drink of something we have. And if you know his Daddy at all, you're assumptions that he's tasted Daddy's Dr. Pepper a time or two (or more) are correct.
*I love how he "talks" to himself while he plays with his toys.
*I love that he's learned how to spit and he thinks it's the funniest thing in the world!
*I love that he immediately comes over when he hears or sees me open the dishwasher and wants to "help" me empty it.
*I love how he stares down the cat, but never wants to touch her.
*I love that when I ask him if he wants a "ba-ba" he will look over to the kitchen sink with a smile because he knows that is where his bottles are and that is where I make his bottle.
Some things that I don't like so much that he does:
*Screams at the top of his lungs to get attention or when he's mad. This is especially annoying during church! I mean it's quite an ear piercing screech!
*He wakes up most everyday between 5-6 am
*He throws his binky out of the crib all the dang time, then gets mad that he doesn't have it.
*He always wants to play with our cell phones and remotes, and sometimes messes them up, and I can't always figure out what he did to fix it.
*He has learned how to climb a few stairs, therefore giving his mommy a heart attack and causing Daddy to have to assemble the baby gate that now is in use daily.

I feel the same way- I want a little more time to enjoy them being little. It just goes by way too fast.
Man, I really am going to miss you in primary (and seeing Landon), you have been so much help and are just fun to be around.
Hehe. YOu may not like the spitting when he's still doing it in a couple of years!
As for growing up, I've decided they should remain babies for 2 years instead of 1. I would like a little more time with them in the cute stage. Then we can just skip to age 5 when they start to get sweet.
