Ten and in the Pen

Steven is ten months old and he is literally in the "pen" at our house a lot! He is so curious about everything and gets into EVERYTHING... so we have created a crawling space/corral in our living room using the furniture and his toy box (aka box from Costco). He's a pro at crawling up the stairs and bolts for any that he sees. He has figured out that you have to go down them backwards but he still thinks he can turn around before he gets all the way down so we have to keep turning him back around so he doesn't face plant it.

He loves to say "oof" when he hears the dogs outside, shake his head "no no", jabber on and on, play with anything that lights up and makes sound, chase things around, play chase, eat finger foods, say "da da" and refuse to say "ma ma" and purse his lips in revolt :). Love this kid! He is such an amazing kid and watching him learn new stuff is one of our greatest joys!
