Look at all those teeth! Not the most attractive picture, I realize, but I swear this is all I get these days! I can't take out my camera or my phone without Simon instantly attacking me and climbing all over me to get at it. So all the pictures I've been getting are these weird extreme close-ups of him making strange faces. At least I'll be able to remember that he had this many teeth at 10 months, right? Because naturally I haven't taken the time to fill out these kind of things in his baby book...the last kid always gets those things overlooked, right?

In other [but still about Simon] news...he is walking! Yay! He's been taking about 5-6 steps at a time mostly, but this morning he did one big 14-step venture in the kitchen. Last night he impressed his brothers by walking from his bedroom doorway and down the hallway to the bathroom door. He's well on his way to being a full-time walker very soon! I can't believe it's already time to start getting ready for his first birthday (and his cowboy birthday party!)!
