Now that Bennett is 10 months old, I am beginning to understand why people warned that boys can be a little different than girls. Here are some of my observations.
Ava and Lily would be occupied with a couple of toys for hours. Bennett plays with a toy for a few minutes, then he goes in search of an outlet, cabinet, blinds, or anything else he is not supposed to play with.
When eating finger foods, Ava and Lily would pick up one tiny morsel at a time. Bennett grabs as much as he can with both fists and tries to stuff it all in his mouth. This makes clean up quite a chore!
After giving the girls a bath, I was relatively dry. Soaking wet with Bennett. And he takes pleasure in doing it!
His motor skills are definitely developing faster than his sisters'. They crawled at 12 months. He's been crawling since 8 months. He pulls up on things and is not afraid to try new things.
Even though keeping up with a boy can be tiring, it is completely worth it. The devious smile, the sloppy kisses, the end of the day cuddles. I can't get enough!
