10 Months and LOTS of updating

I hate being so behind in blogging because I've had so much to share this month.  It has been a combination of my slow Internet problems and when I did get on, blogger was having trouble uploading my pics.  So here goes lots of updating.  Lets start at the end, here is my sweet little Finn's 10 month pictures:

There is a special surprise in these pictures that you can't see:  Finn finally has a tooth.  One of his middle bottom teeth is coming in.  I figured it out after being up almost all night 3 days ago.  He has been extra cranky because of it.  I feel like this has been the best month we've had yet though.  Finn sleeps through the night (8-5:30) about once or twice a week now and I'm not feeding him in the night anymore.  He is so much more fun to play with now and is all over the place.  He is crawling, standing up on everything, walking around the ottoman, in my cabinets, drawers, laundry, and under the chairs and table or really anywhere he can get to.  He weighs a little over 20 pounds now and my arm muscles are really great now.  He is "talking" all the time now and so he only needs his passy at sleep times.  He still isn't napping well in his crib but that's a whole another story.  His hair is so long now that the mohawk is officially gone and I'm thinking he might need a haircut soon.  He is eating almost everything and feels like he has to eat any time anyone else is eating, even if he just ate.  He is my little disposal because he would eat everything all day long if I let him.  He is so tall now that anything that has feet in it has to be at least 12 month size or bigger.  He wears almost all 12 month sizes.  His favorite thing to play with is his ball and he chases it all over the house.  He also loves to go to the pool, ride in his stroller, and he does great at the mall (haha).  I'm liking that he is understanding me more and more.  I'm excited about the things that will come soon like walking and saying more.
Now on to other things from this month.  I think I'll show you in pictures:
In my Laundry
He loves to be under the chairs, I pull him out from there about 7 times a day
Memorial Day: in the baby pool

playing with Dad in the pool

Playing in a tree house at his cousins birthday party
passed out with Dad on the couch

crawling under his walker

trying to walk up Stan's dog stairs

his favorite chair
He loves to play with the basket
He had to get his finger pricked for a blood test, see the bandage.
trying to eat his stroller
Hopefully that will help get me a little caught up with blogging.  I still wish i would have written about our trip to Abilene, his first time to stand up, the tooth drama, etc but this will have to do for now.
