Dear Westyn

Dear Westyn,

I can't believe that you are already 10 months old. It seems like only yesterday that you joined our family. Somehow in the last month you've transformed from being a quiet sleeping baby into one very busy boy! You love to climb and much to my dismay you have mastered our very steep stairs all the way to the top!! You take any chance you can to get to a higher place, including using me and your daddy as a jungle gym. It took awhile for you to figure out how to move those knees and arms the right way to crawl, and you still do the bum scoot when you want to get to something really fast, but you've mastered crawling and walking is on it's way soon! Your first word was 'Cheeeeese', that's a pure sign that I have my camera out way to much! I think I may have heard cup bup a few times too...

Your favorite food is Cheerios. We can't even get the box out of the cupboard without you freaking out and waving your arms madly! I gave you some in a bowl on the floor the other day and you very carefully took them out without knocking over the bowl! 

I know you love your big brother very much and he loves you too, although he sure doesn't show it lately. Screaming 'NO' at you and pushing you away before you've even had a chance to take his cars away...I know that's not fun and I am sorry he's being such a grump to you. He means well and will hopefully work through whatever it is soon, so just keep smiling cutie pie. One day you will be bigger then him and payback will be a bitch.

In just a few short months you will be one year old and I am not sure if I am ready for that day to come cause your still my little baby. Somethings will never change though...your precious smile that always brightens our days, your contagious laugh and those baby blue eyes of yours that get me everytime!

Happy Birthday Buddy!
