9 months


Sleeping: He is sleeping around 10-12 hours at night with 1-2, 1.5 hour naps during the day

Eating: 4 Bottles 8 oz each, fruits and veggies, loves pears, not into table food yet, he wants to inspect everything that I want him to try and does not put anything into his mouth accept his finger and froggie. Not taking well to sippy cups yet, will drink water from a plastic bottle or an open mouth glass of ours, he gets really excited and wants more!

Activity: Still loves his jumper more than all other toys, but we circuit him on his floor mat, exersaucer and the jumper. Loves to play with straws when we go out to eat, he will try to take the one out of your cup if he gets close enough.  Will rollover in middle of bottle, diaper, and clothes change, hard to keep him still.  He started clapping his hands and is very proud of himself 6/7/11.

Health/Wellness: 23.3 pounds- 75%, height- 75%, head- over 95%.  Has been teething but no teeth yet, never been sick (knock on wood)


Mobility: He can get anywhere by rolling, can get onto all 4's and rock and scoot some but not crawling yet (he started crawling everywhere by 6/10/11), he also can pull himself up onto his knees on almost anything (6/6/11)

Language: Lots of DA-DA's and lots of other syllables, he knows his name when we call it, he only stays still when I sing to him, and he smiles and sometimes makes singing noises too

Events/Outings: He was kept at our house by all grandparents while we went to Universal Studios Orlando with Ryan's work for 4 days (it was the first time we left him overnight).

He loves to flirt with girls when we go out and everyone comments on his super cute cheeks! He is such an easy, good natured baby and we have people ask to babysit him because he is so good.  We think he is perfect and I am still loving my time at home with him! I feel so blessed to be with him all the time and to watch him grow and learn on a daily basis.
