Mason at Ten Months

Mason is a very busy ten-month-old. He's busy trying to keep up with Avery, busy making messes, and busy basically wreaking havoc wherever he goes. Here's a recap of what has transpired this month.

• He's still crawling Army-style. He gets up on his hands and knees and gets himself to a sitting position, but when he wants to go, he drops down to his tummy. 
• His top front teeth came in (finally!), and now the next two on top are already poking through.
• He's eating anything and everything as fast as we can put it on his tray.
• He loves to be upside down and frequently tries to launch himself backward off a lap or out of someone's arms. We have become good catchers.
• He also loves to wrestle. 
• He is pulling up, and the crib has consequently been lowered.
• He's still very ticklish and gets the giggles a lot.

"I get to eat AND make a mess -- it's a win win!"

Saturday morning WWF; tagging Teddy in.

"Hmm. How did I get up here?"

Guess we'd better tighten the straps...

He couldn't get the gym out, so he just climbed right in.

"Hey Mom, I wanna wear this today."

Channeling Ziggy.

"Well hello, ladies. Welcome. Can I get you a cocktail?"

"How YOU doin?"
"Save it, pal. I only wanted your goldfish."

"Come here often?"
"Oh, brother. I'm outta here."

Since his pickup lines didn't work on the real girls, he got desperate and made out with Glowworm instead.
