BIG BOY

Well William is now 10 months old! I can't believe it, he is getting so big!!! It seems like just yesterday I was going to the hospital to have him:( He is just a tiny little thing though. At the doctor's Saturday night, (yes, he had to go back to Instacare:( ), he was 18 pounds 9 ounces, his little cousin is 4 months younger than him, and is only 1 pound smaller. He is so tiny! But being so sick does not help, he is still not feeling well, but he did sleep through the night last night, WAHOO! and has started eating a little bit again, he did not eat for 2 solid days. I ask his doctors about him being so small and all they say is, well look at his mom and dad! But all my kids are small, they always have been, and I guess always will be. He is in less than the 5th percentile for height and weight, so less than 5th that it is almost off the charts. But Kaiden was off the charts, below it, for a couple years, so he is following in Kaiden's footsteps. All the other kids are small, but at least they are somewhat on the chart.
So Will is 10 months, and he is standing and walking around all the furniture, and he is walking with help. He loves to play with his walker toys he got for Christmas. He walks them all over the house:) Until he realizes he walked into a room where nobody is, he cannot be alone. He is a VERY spoiled child:) No not spoiled just very well loved:) He loves to play with his brothers and sisters. And just LIGHTS UP when Kaiden and Makayla come home from school. And when dad gets home from work, Will generally meets him at the door first, he is such a fast crawler, he just LOVES his family:)

I can relate to the small thing! I think that's what Lacy weighed when she was 10 months old, but she was in the 95th percentile for length! Her height-weight ratio is totally screwy. And nothing wrong with a spoiled baby! I don't think kids can be spoiled until after they're 3 anyway. They don't get bratty until then LOL!
