Our little guy turned 10 months on Easter. Sawyer now has 4 teeth and can now add a few more foods to his list. He LOVES Annie's Mac n Cheese! He also likes rice cakes, pirate booty, rice, and broccoli. He is a great eater! He loves to use a spoon and feed himself. He's pretty good at it, too - especially with yogurt. He stands unassisted for about 20-30 seconds at a time, and "cruises" around quite easily - I think once he decides to take a few steps he will be off and RUNNING. Sawyer likes to sing - he hums along to the radio and during the hymns in church sometimes his voice can be heard above the crowd :) He said his first "word" a couple of weeks ago: BABY. He pointed to one of his newborn pictures on the wall, and said "Mama, bebe". Wow! He constantly babbles and has a few "words" that seem to have some meaning: he goes to his room, stands on his toes, knocks down books and says "ba ba". Of course he says Mama & Dada, too. He LOVES books. He loves the vacuum cleaner. He also loves walks, the park, the beach - anything outside. Today, in the sandbox, he started pushing his little truck around saying "ummm ummm" you know, like boys do. I never say that. It must be in boy genes? He is a delight, a ball of energy, and a sweetheart. We love our boy to pieces and can't believe how big he's getting!!!

Outings // Discovery Park
Last weekend the sun came out! It seemed like Spring arrived overnight. Shorts and flip flops came out of hiding. People flocked to green spaces to enjoy the blue skies, cherry blossoms, and sunshine. We took our little family to the beach at Discovery Park, and picnicked.
We were all in our element - warm weather, hiking, playing on the beach. Daddy even showed our little son how to skip rocks across the water. Sawyer absolutely loved playing with (and trying to eat) the sand, rocks, driftwood, and seashells. It is so fun seeing Sawyer explore the natural world with all of his senses.
We seriously could have stayed forever. It was one of the best days of my life: being with my two favorite guys on such a perfect day, enjoying nature's bounty and beauty, with a bit of sea breeze in my hair. Summer is ALWAYS welcome here!

Good-bye gummy grin...
Much to my delight, our son has given us a gummy grin for his first 9.5 months. BUT. That is changing, and quickly! Sawyer has had 4 teeth erupt in the past week. Looks like another 4 are coming soon! He has been pretty good - but at night he kind of whines and wakes up a lot. Can you blame him? I still can't picture him with teeth - even though I did get a picture of the new soon-to-be-full-out pearly whites. He's getting so big! I don't think there's any stopping it now!
