10 Months

Jacob eats a TON and poops a TON. Golly gracious...and he's super heavy. I can tell that my left arm can carry SO MUCH more weight than my right arm haha. He's a dense and solid boy.
He loves getting in the middle of things. If his brothers are fighting, he'll just crawl right in the middle of it all. It's so funny to watch...it's like he knows he's heavy and can push his weight around. No kid has tried to pick him up...NOBODY.

He eats whatever you put in his mouth. He will nap from around 1 pm to about 4 pm...a solid nap and then he's up until about 8:30pm and if it's a good night, he will sleep until 7 am...if it's a sort of good night....he will wake up around 3 am and then maybe go back to bed and then wake up around 8 am. But in order to get a GOOD night...he has to eat a lot of dinner...i'm talking like 2 cups worth of food.

look at all those teeth!

 He learned to stand...and it took him about a whole day. Once he mastered it, he was all game. But he only tries to step maybe two times. He's really not in a hurry. By now, my older two were walking...he's clearly the lazy one. But honestly....why would he walk? He cries and he's got 4 people bringing him things and two of them carry him EVERYWHERE....why would anyone walk? I don't blame him...I wouldn't either.

Learning to stand...it literally took him a whole day

He doesn't like being caged. Better...than rolling down the stairs

 We went through some growing pains the last month and grew a total of 8 teeth. They came in pairs and came quick. The first two bottom (middle) and almost immediately we got the pair on top (middle). Then right after (maybe a week later) we got the pair (one to either side of the middle teeth) and then right after the top two followed. Poor kid....he was drooling so much. He was going through 4 shirts a day...besides pajamas. I would let him go naked some days,but it was cold. But then he was wet within an hour and he was cold anyways....it was really bad. I think so far, his teeth have taken a break since this. We'll see how fast the others come.

A lot of teething these days

see? he got it down in about a day

 He loves to follow older brothers around. Wherever they go...he follows...and then into their room he goes. And he puts everything in his mouth. We're still working on that. Dominic is learning to keep legos very high up.

and now...he's unstoppable
