Briggs is TEN Months!

Super late posting this month! Haha! Our boy is 10 months old, and here's what he's been up to:

Weighs: He weighed in at 22 lbs a couple weeks ago. Still topping the charts :)

Sleeps: Same as last month - still not totally consistent at sleeping through the night. Sometimes he sleeps all night, and sometimes he wakes up once (sometimes twice. boo!). His naps are still the same - an hour(ish) nap around 9:30 or so and then an afternoon nap around 12:30 or 1:00pm, which lasts an hour and a half or so. He is usually ready for bed by 7pm, and sometimes I have to hold him off. Because he takes such an early afternoon nap (because we pick Wells up from school at 2:30), he can get pretty cranky by the time the late afternoon and evening roll around. Hence the early bedtime :)

Eats: My goodness, Briggs loves food. He eats three meals a day plus snacks. He is still breastfed and also gets water in a bottle throughout the day.

Wears: 12-month clothes fit the best. And some 18-month pieces as well. He is in a size 4 diaper :)

Plays: Now that he can crawl, he is into EVERYTHING. His favorite toy for about a week was the broom. Haha! He would drag it around while in his walker all over the house. He is really good at playing with toys by himself for a little bit and also playing alongside his brothers. He loves when I sit a big basket of toys in front of him, and he can just pull them all out. He still loves being outside and taking baths. He is starting to wrestle and climb all on top of his brothers. He smiles the biggest smile whenever his Daddy comes home or into the room.

Milestones: He learned to say "more" this month - well, really "Ma." He says it when he wants more of something to eat. He also learned to crawl when we were in Charleston for Spring Break! He is a fast little thing right now, crawling all over the house. He is currently doing the one-legged crawl, and it is too cute. He's trying so hard to pull up on things now, too. Since learning to crawl, he seems so much more active (not just physically but his personality in general). He is a little busybody, and I think he is going to give his brothers a run for their money. So much for having one "chill" child!

Briggs is growing up so fast! He is learning new things and developing his personality each day, and it's so fun to see him grow into who he is going to be. We love our not-so-little baby of the family so much!

Briggs is NINE Months!

Late again! But our boy turned 9 months a few weeks ago. Here's the latest on the littlest Hankin brother:

Weighs: At our doctor visit last week he was 21 lbs and 7 oz. I don't remember his length, but I think he was in the 65-75ish percentile for height and weight. :)

Sleeps: Just when he starts sleeping through the night again, he changes things up. He is way more consistent at sleeping through the night than either of his brothers were at that age, but still!  His naps are still the same - an hour(ish) nap around 9:30 or so and then an afternoon nap around 12:30 or 1:00pm, which lasts an hour and a half or so. He is usually ready for bed by 7pm, and sometimes I have to hold him off. Because he takes such an early afternoon nap (because we pick Wells up from school at 2:30), he can get pretty cranky by the time the late afternoon and evening roll around. Hence the early bedtime :)

Eats: This big boy love his food. He eats almost everything we eat plus some purees. He is still breastfed. He does get some water in a bottle throughout the day as well.

Wears: 12 month clothes fit the best. And he is officially in a size 4 diaper :)

Plays: He has learned how to get around by scooting and leaning. He's not crawling, but somehow slowly and surely, he gets where he wants to go :) He is so funny chasing after his brothers in his walker. He loves being outside and taking baths. He is still doing well at playing with toys and entertaining himself for a little while.

Milestones: No real milestones this month. I think he'll be cutting some more top teeth soon, but they aren't in yet! And still no crawling, but maybe next month! :)

This guy is so sweet. He has been such a joy to us, and we love watching him learn new things and grow into his own personality. Briggsie Wiggsie, we love you!
