Tales of Baby McCabe: Double Digits

It's been awhile since I posted. School started again so I am back to work (insert sad face here). I am still half-time, but it's different this year. I teach in the afternoons every day, rather than full-day half-weeks. I don't like it. I miss my whole days off with Nolan. I try to spend as much time with Nolan (and Keegs) as I can in the morning. But I miss snuggling with Nolan after his naps. He now naps in the car on the way to my mom and dad's (my mom is watching Nolan again this year :)) and then takes one afternoon nap when I'm at work. So I miss out on his one snuggly time of the day. Ok, end of my pity party.

Nolan is doing terrific! He is walking all over the place. It is so fun to watch. He'll wander around the house checking everything out. It still seems weird to see him walk into a room, instead of crawl. Nolan still uses walls, objects, and sometimes his cousin Abigail - sorry, Abigail! to stand up, but I think he'll be able to stand up on his own really soon. He is able to bend down and pick a small object up and stand back up on his own, so he is capable. He just needs the confidence to try. I'm sure it won't be long.

Jason and I can't believe that Nolan is ten months old now - he is in the double digits! The past ten months have flown by. His first birthday is quickly approaching. It makes me both happy and sad. I'm sad that he is growing up so quickly and won't be my little baby boy forever, but at the same time I'm so happy that he is growing, healthy and happy. Jay and I feel so blessed to have Nolan. :)
