Braden is 10 Months Old!

Braden is 10 months old and getting into everything! He's walking along furniture, getting into cabinets and drawers, and making a mess of mommy's magazines. In addition to his curiosity to explore everything in his universe, he eats like a true Novinger boy and is babbling up a storm (he gets that from me). I'm sure he's going to start using real words any time now. He also got another tooth this month which makes seven in all. The eighth looks like it is starting to pop up too. He loves to walk around the house while holding our hands until he's had enough and then it's back to crawling like a speed demon. I think he will probably walk on his own by his first birthday. He has discovered that his brothers' toys are much better than his own. We have to keep their bedroom doors closed to protect Braden from all the small pieces and parts to their toys. When we close the doors Braden screeches at us as if to say, "Hey, I wanna join the party in there!" It's so exciting to watch his little mind and body grow into toddlerhood.
