Drew - 10 months

Our little Ju Ju Bee is still as happy go lucky, but sometimes developing more of an opinion about things.  He still amazes us with his little ninja roll that we can't quite capture on video.  He basically falls down from staring up and instead of bonking his head, he does a quick roll to get out of it.  He's especially good at this when very sleepy.

Here's some of his new tricks or preferences:
- Shakes head "no no no" when sleepy and makes us all laugh (especially when at Disneyland at dinner)
- Loves tackling his brother and sister...his way of "giving them a hug"
- Tries to say "all done" by either shaking his hands around or imitating my word intonation
- Continues to love string cheese, fried eggs, pears, oranges and apple sauce squeezers
- Loves when Ethan and Eliana push him very fast in his umbrella stroller
- Makes trips to the bus stop via his new 4-in-1 trike (thanks, Nonna and Grandpa) and loves it
- Usually takes two naps a day...where he naps is mostly in his crib...but given our activities, there are times he only naps in the car...sorry, Drew!
- Loves when Daddy gets home
- Still nursing exclusively and now up to 23 lbs
- Letting go and standing and balancing...has taken a few stutter steps but nothing very solid yet.  I'm sure walking will happen pretty soon
- Still no teeth, but I can see the indentions in the bottom part of his mouth
- Loves to read touch and feel books like, "Little Giraffe" and "That's Not my Bunny"
- Getting more opinionated about diaper changes
- Drools all over, but spit up has significantly slowed down
- Has a new love affair with balls, especially Ethan's basketball and my little butterfly ball from growing up.  The other day he sat in the kitchen and bounced the basketball forever while I got dinner ready
- Still loves baths and all the silliness that comes with it with three kiddos in the tub
- Continues to make "da da" "ba ba" as his main consonant sounds

He is such a joy to be around.  He can play on his own, but happily comes to us when he needs us and wants us to be silly with him.  Still loves the "I'm gonna getcha'" game.

We love you, Ju Ju!
