10 months old

Junior turned 10 months old last week.  His appetite continues to amaze us.  Late afternoon to evening is his time of biggest consumption.  The other day he ate a whole avocado, 4oz yogurt, one baby bel cheese, half a pear, and 8 oz of formula.... all between 5-8pm.  Most of his weight is in the belly, although he feels solidly built in the arms and legs too.

He can do a couple of more tricks in addition to the ones from last blog.  Both tricks are Korean.  First is the one called "do-ri, do-ri".  Basically he shakes his head like he's saying "no" but he's actually doing the trick.  The other one, called "gon-ji gon-ji", is when he points to the palm of the other hand.  He doesn't really do the tricks on our command.  Instead, we think he does the tricks so that he can make us say the words.

He's one step closer to walking.  He uses the big box that his new convertible car seat came in, and uses it as support for walking.  The box is so big that he can't really take too many steps before something gets in the way.  We'll have to invest in something that's a little more functional as a walker.
