10 mths. old & Grandma's Birthday!

Today is a very special day indeed - Cristian is 10 mths. old and it's also my Mom's birthday! Happy Birthday, Mom!! We love you!

Cristian is such a wonderful little boy! He brightens our day every day - every single day this child blesses us with a million smiles and a ton of laughter...it's amazing! No matter what kind of day I have when I see my little angel it makes everything so much better...he always greets Jose and I with a huge grin and lots of laughes when we come home from work. He's such a happy baby!! He is so full of love - just a miracle I tell you! :)

It blows my mind to think in 2 short months (60 days) that my little baby will turn 1!! The time has gone so fast...he's gotten so big and he's developed so much it just amazes me to see him grow each day!

10 things at 10 mths...

1. Cristian is saying Mama a lot now...it's so cute and last night I got it on video. It sounds so cute...it is my most favorite thing in the world to hear! :)

2. Cristian waves goodbye and gets so excited at times that he bounces up and down and waves both hands in the air.

3. Cristian will give you 5 if you hold out your hand and ask him to.

4. Cristian loves to hear me sing to him...he's the only one! LOL! He loves to hear two songs that I made up for him when I was pregnant. And he loves the little nursery rhymes...like Itsy Bitsy Spider!

5. Cristian loves the telephone and remote control. He smiles when he sees both and quickly tries to grab them. Each morning when he wakes up Mom calls me at work and we say good morning and then Cristian hangs up on me while pushing all the buttons on the phone!

6. Cristian is such a great eater! There are only a couple of things that we've given him that he refuses to eat - peas (you cannot fool this kid, he doesn't like peas...but he does love green beans) & he absolutely dispises Beech Nut Dinners...he makes the worst faces and cries when we tried feeding it to him. He loves the Beech Nut Fruits, but no way Jose on the dinners!

7. Cristian understands Spanish and English and that is so great b/c we're raising him bi-lingual.

8. Cristian does not like his changing table much these days...diaper changes are a chore these days b/c he gets really irritated when we lay him down to change him and he won't sit still. He is a wiggle worm and it's an Olympic sport to change him...LOL!

9. Cristian loves his stuffed animals that are in his crib - he loves sleeping with all of them and he loves them so much he tries to eat them and then he hangs them upside down and drops them one by one out of his crib! He loves his monkey, his doggie, his lamb and his teddy bear.

10. Cristian loves the water. He really enjoys the bath and swimming...he loves taking showers too!

Tonight in honor of Cristian's 10 mth. milestone and Grandma's birthday we're going out to celebrate!! We're going to dinner and Grandma is going to buy Cristian a toy for HER birthday...talk about spoiled! :) Cristian has Grandma wrapped...Mami and Papi too! We love you, baby bubi! xoxox
