10 month must haves >>

Lyric is almost 11 months old, and these are a few things that got us through the last month. Notice that most everything is food. Kid eats like a piggy. If food is out, Lyric needs it. Everytime I go into the kitchen he immediatly follows, and sits at my feet just incase I want to eat something without sharing it with him, so thats fun. But alas --  10 month must haves.

1. Bananas >> This seems silly, because duh its just fruit.. But I swear he eats more bananas than anyone I know. At least one a day, but sometimes 2. Usually a banana with something else for breakfast, half for a snack, and the other half for another snack later. He just loves bananas.

2. ipad with fisherprice games >> lets be honest here, this is a controversial subject. Letting a baby play a game on an ipad (its educational, don't worry too much). But we do live in a generation that is very surrounded by technology.. if it works it works. If you don't want your baby doing it, then don't let them. For us, we see no harm in a little bit of time a day with these types of things.

3. yogurt melts >> any brand, any flavor. these are by FAR the most used item in our house. No joke. I keep a big mason jar filled with a few bags of these at a time for him. I carry that sucker EVERYWHERE with me. If we forget yogurt melts when we go out we IMMEDIATELY stop and buy some. He's hopelessly addicted. I've tried to make my own, but he isn't a fan of cold things - and they have to stay frozen.. so he just spits them out. I've also tried giving him just a container of yogurt, but it doesn't sit well on his stomach and he gets pukey.. So yogurt melts it is. We have like 5 unopened bags in our pantry.. at all times.

4. Target seasonal straw cups >> We don't have this cute elmo one, but these are the only sippy cups he will use.

5. Ritz Crackers >> I break these up into 4 pieces and give him 3-4 at one of his snack times. He loves them.

6.  Rubber Ducky >> Another silly one, but he carries a little baby rubber duck around with him all day. If he forgets it where he last was he immediately goes back to get it. It literally goes everywhere with him, and if we leave the house without it he immediatly goes searching for it when we get home. Its a new thing, but darn cute. Some kids have loveys, Lyric has a duck.

7. Safety First bath seat >> This seat has been a lifesaver. I don't know what it is about our tub but Lyric can't sit up in it without slipping. This seat lets him play in the tub safely.
