Graham is 10 months old!

I have NO idea where 10 months have gone.  The days seem so very long, but they are going fast.
As every good mother should, I find myself comparing Graham to Kasen.  They are SO different!!  Graham can sign "milk", "eat", & "dog" (when he wants to) - we never taught Kasen sign language.  Graham has ZERO teeth - Kasen had 4.  Graham is *almost* 16#s & is 28" - Kasen was just shy of 23#s & 29.75".  Graham is finally crawling on all 4s & cruises around everything he can hold on to - Kasen was walking.  Graham babbles a lot, mostly with "da" sounds, and his favorite word is "dada", but he also knows (just rarely says) "bubba", "mama", and sorta says "bye" & "hi" - Kasen was up to "dada", "mama", "baba" (bottle), "dog", & "bye".  ...I could keep comparing, but the thing is, they are TOTALLY different kids.  Graham is pretty calm & happy, unless mommy isn't around.  ;)  Graham has the most amazing laugh - you can't help but smile when you hear it!  He LOVES his letters (toys), and pushing buttons on things.  He will eat ANYTHING you give him (who needs teeth?), and eats more than Kasen!  He loves, loves, loves Kasen & gets super excited when he sees him in the morning, or after Kasen has been at school all morning. I've turned the tv on for him a few times, but he really doesn't care anything about it.  He does like to play with our phones though.  He's finally getting into the 6-9 month stash of clothes, and has more toys than a kid should ever need (haha!).  He has his own playroom, but doesn't like to be in there alone - ever.  He likes being outside & thinks wind is super funny.  He just started taking pretty decent naps (1- *maybe* 2 hours), without someone (mommy) laying with him the whole time.  He still sleeps in about 2, maybe 3 hour increments at night, but mommy is used to it now (I totally don't recall what it's like to get a full night of sleep!).
