    It is so hard to think that my baby is already 10 months old. Though the time went so quickly it has been an amazing year.     Watching him grow & learn new things everyday has been a blessing.  I still can't believe I am a Mommy, your Mommy.  I love you so much.  You are so smart & hitting all your milestones just fine!I will be posting next Thursday about my experience but for now all I want to say is that I was breastfeeding K. Michael for the first 5 months of his life.  Though he had always drank from his bottle also.

But he was great with both.  </figcaption>

        <h2>I am going to make future posts about when he started sitting up, trying to crawl, walk & first meals.  </h2>       
    I will go more into depth with those special times.  But he is walking quite well now.  He still falls down and is clumsy but he is doing such an amazing job.  He just gets right back up and keeps on trying.  He even tries to run which is so cute but he hurts himself occasionally. 

He eats so much in the mornings I have no idea where he puts it LOL but he is so active.. he will not sit down if his life depended on it. So curious that boy is.. and he knows what he wants. Though it would be nice if he could tell me when he needs something or isnt happy. That time will come though. For now all he does it yell & try to say some words but not many. He can say “Da-da” still waiting on the day he says “Mommy.” I did actually catch him on camera saying “Ma” but that was only one time.He recently just starting dancing.. anytime a song on the tv or from his toy comes on he starts bouncing up and down… it is so adorable, I just wanna eat him up. From even my pregnancy he has always loved music. His Papi is very musical and owns a piano, guitars, hermonicas & more. He hopes K. Michael will love music just as much when he gets older. Music means alot to our family.

I can’t believe my baby will be turning one in not even two months..

    It feels like it was just yesterday that we brought him home.  Life would not be the same without him around.  I love him with all my heart and I am looking forward to the rest of our lives.  I am so excited for when he starts talking and understanding more.. we can take him places & experience all the fun stuff kids should be.  Swimming will be next on our list and I think he will have a blast.  He loves his bath time so he will have so much fun I hope.
