Seriously, 10 months already!?!?

just give me the camera Mom!!

Okay, here's 1 smile!

A tickle session from Jaxon! he's got this great growly laugh when he's really going...

It is amazing how fast Austin's baby stages are going. Even more faster then Jaxon's did. I suppose when you are following a 4 year old around as well and splitting time between the two of them it does move by at a slighter different pace then when you have just the one. I find myself holding Ausitn longer at night after he falls asleep, letting him hang out on my hip as much as he wants to, and stretching out our nursing moments just to hold onto today a bit more...or live in today so to say. I realize after having Jaxon, that Austin soon will want to lay by himself in a big boy bed, get down and walk verses being held, and prefer a cup over snuggeling nursing time with mom. It's a great reminder that "these times too shall pass". We so often refer to that phrase when times are tough, stressful, or difficult at the moment. But it is true for great moments too. These times shall pass and soon I will look back fondly at these moments. Austin has been oodles of fun lately... smiling and laughing more at us, getting engaged with some fun activities, and cruising everywhere. He is standing by himself now and loves to cruise along furniture. Jaxon loves to get him laughing and nobody can do it better then big brother Jaxon!! Two boys... what fun! Here are Austin's 10 month old pictures...he wasn't really in the mood to take pics that day. The camera has become an attractive thing to him lately that he'd much rather just hold himself, not have it teased in front of him! He was mad each time I tried to take a picture and I wouldn't let him have it! Stinker! So...here ya go babe...10 months and counting.
