Dear Nugget


Ten Months. You're changing, growing, moving more every day.
You eat everything and anything we put in front of you.
If you can feed it to yourself (pick it up) you'll love us/it even more.
You like avocados!
It's hard to make you keep water in the bathtub.
You beeline for just about any kind of box or basket that you can empty.
You'll do it in half the time if it's something that Cameron is playing with.
You love to swing.
I'm pretty sure that you might have consumed gravel or a leaf last weekend. ok, it totally could have been both.

You have this grin right now that could go either way - it could be a happy grin, or like you're on the brink of being pissed. I'm not sure, but it's cute regardless.
You're pulling up on things and you know when I'm walking away.
We're trying to teach you signs, and I love that Cameron tries to help you do them too.
When you clap, we all clap.
We've introduced you to the sippy cup, but you're not sold on it yet.

You have 6 teeth. Big ones too.
You have sensitive skin. I hope you grow out of that quickly.
Your Daddy loves to snack on your cheeks and you reach for his nose.
You pose on your side just like Cameron did. It's one of my favorite things. Even the teachers at school recognize it.
You love when Cameron shares his goldfish with you. and I mean LOVE!

You are a joy and a blessing. I'm not sure how we got so lucky with not one but two incredibly loving boys, but we're better people because of you.

I don't know if we will say it enough when you're 16, or if you will listen to me... but Thank you for being you.
We love you to the moon & back.
