Happy 10-month Birthday, Landon!

Geez...and to think that we are already planning Landon's 1-year birthday party! It truly saddens me to think of when Landon was an infant - so little and 100% dependent...and now he'll 'respond' when we talk to him, uses the sippy cups without a problem, walks around (although holds onto everything, including the vertical wall), waves goodbye, and is heading into the stranger anxiety phase, which is comforting that I'm in the Circle of Trust, but it's painful to see Landon, who is usually extremely social, become shy and hide his face when he sees someone new. We also suspect that he may be having bad dreams too because he'll wake up in the early evening crying, and then as soon as we pick him up he falls back to sleep, and when we put in back in the crib he stays asleep.

Every month, shoot, every day is more and more enjoyable to see what Landon will do. We're so happy and proud of his 'accomplishments' already and are looking forward to more! Love you, Landon!
