10 Months

WOW!!! This year is going by so fast! I can't keep up! Aryk is 30" long and weighs 21lbs. still. I guess he is burning a lot of calories with all his crawling.

I went crazy with the camera, of course. Between how adorable my baby is, and how much he moves around, there were a lot of different shots. Aryk doesn't hold still for anything! When we are changing his diaper or getting him dressed, he thinks it's a game. He loves to crawl away and make you chase him. Well... that's what he did while trying to take his photo. So, I made some more collages. I love this little guy and his playful personality. I can't get enough!

Aryk LOVES the piano. While visiting The Aldred's in Utah, Aryk found that he was tall enough to reach their piano keys. So as soon as we returned home, he had to try it on our piano! And sure enough two and a half feet is a perfect hight for playing the piano! So while taking photos and chasing him around, he had to make a couple stops at the piano. And at his train, and at his rocket. Anywhere but where mom set him! And he thought it was hilarious!

Here is Aryk on a random night at our house, last week. Getting into the usual drawer of plastic cups and bowls. He thinks he is drinking out of this empty water bottle. It was so cute!

While playing in Ashton and AJ's room, he found that this empty traveling toy box was perfect for him to travel in! Man, Ashton is getting strong! Aryk is such a delight. He is currently going through a fever and cold. So he isn't as happy as usual right now. But he is still fun and cute and loving... I could go on. No wonder I can't stop taking pictures! I miss my other two being this small. But it is nice to have the big brothers. They are good to Aryk and help out so much.
