More about Isaac @ 10 Months

Here are more things about Isaac @ 10 months old. I asked Tanna to list some things as well, and I jotted these down several days ago (like, when Isaac was actually 10 months old).

• He puts everything in his mouth. I have fished out a few different things, including Play-Doh and a little hair elastic. Nice.
• He eats good but does not like peaches (even in Georgia!).
  
• He likes the car seat just fine. We had been told and had read that because car seats aren't really used in Korea, a lot of children who are adopted from Korea hate being in car seats because they aren't used to them at all. (Think nonstop screaming, kicking, and carrying on, etc.) But Isaac has done very well with the car seat--he even fell asleep in it on the way home from the airport.
  
• When he is trying to go to sleep (this is when he was sleeping with us), he likes to lay on one of us or right next to us and rub his face on us (usually in the chest area).
  
• Isaac does not have any interest in a paci. I tried to give him one the first few days he was home to help comfort him and calm him down some, but he did not want it.
  
• He is attracted to string, ribbon, yarn, etc.
• Loves Cheerios.
• He is a great clapper.
  
• He can be very clingy, which is to be expected.
• He makes funny noises when he eats. (This is one of Tanna's. LOL!)
• Loves to watch ceiling fans.
• Points. A lot. (This is interesting to me because Kate was so delayed in this and did not point--or follow a point--even at 18 months+. This was on our list of Kate's red flags for autism.)
• He leans forward when eating.
• He likes to climb stairs, but we don't really do this or encourage it a lot.
• He does NOT like: bathtime, diaper changes, having his face wiped. (As an update: Now, at 11 months, he is liking bathtime, and diaper changes are a lot easier--however, the face-wiping is still a struggle. Poor little guy just hates having his face wiped.)
• He likes to push chairs and stools around on the hardwood floors.

P.S. I took the above photo just before bedtime on August 11, 2010, Isaac's last day of being 10 months old. I was thinking, though ... because he was born in Korea, I guess technically he was already 11 months old because of the time difference. Just FYI. Or if you want to really get technical AND theological ... he is technically older than that because I believe life begins at conception. So there you go.

P.P.S. Tanna updated his blog last week with a post about Isaac.
