Flashback # 3 : Andrew is 10 months

This little boy is everything but little any more.


His stats:

Weight: 22:3 lbs

Length: 28.8 in

He is wearing the cloths Josh wore last summer. They are size 18 months!. He is a chubby baby no doubt.

Andrew does not prejudice against any food. They are all his favorite now. He really enjoys drinking apple juice though.

He is definitely crawling everywhere now. He loves to follow Julia and Josh wherever they go, although I think he regrets it after he gets banged in the head with some toy.

He is a very tough kid. I think josh is roughing him up. Josh tries to play with him but gets frustrated when he doesn’t get much of a response from Andrew and that’s when Andrew gets pushed or pinched or crushed into the floor. Most of the time you wouldn’t hear Andrew complaint, I think he believes that’s just the way you play, but there are those moments when he’s had enough and certainly lets you know. My poor dear, all he needs after is a big hug from mummy to be up and going again.



Andrew is even trying to take steps now. He holds on to the couch and moves to where he wants to go.

His favorite toy is paper. Yes PAPER. He find pieces of paper from who knows where around the house, puts them on his lips and crawls away where I can’t see him. Once he reaches his safe spot he proceeds to taste the paper and chew it like gum.

His other favorite thing to do when he is roaming free on the floor is to race straight for the kitty’s water and spill it all over the floor. He of course gets in the middle of the puddle and starts splashing the water on himself. I do really not like the cat right now.

He has 7 teeth, 4 on top and 3 on the bottom. He loves to keep his tongue between his them. He had his second visit to the Doctor to cut the little film under his tongue. It took four people to hold him down. Yes, he is really strong.

A couple of days ago he was playing with Josh’s train and he came to take it away from him and couldn’t get it out f his hands. It was very funny to see Josh been over taken by his baby brother.

Andrew is developing his personality. Whenever he gets mad now, he starts to growl. It is so funny to hear him complaint about things he doesn’t like. He loves to get mad at the blocks for not coming apart.

His favorite place to be in the house: underneath our computer desk. He can’t resist crawling over to all the cables hiding under there.

He does not like his saucer anymore. It almost feels like time out for him. I love it, because it is indeed his time out chair, especially right after he spills the cat’s water.

He has this new habit of rubbing the hair behind his ear when he is getting tired. If he is on bed he can actually put himself to sleep.

One funny thing he has developed this month is that silly frown of his. He watches TV with a frown. He is also a big flirt, just like his brother. When girls talk to him he raises his right eyebrow and smiles at them.
He is going to be a great reader. He loves to pick up books and look at them and even change the pages. After that of course he has to taste them.
Andrew dear you need to slow down. You are growing too fast for your mamma.
