Happy 9 Months Big Boy!

Can you believe that our little man is 9 months? Well believe it, because on May 8th, 2009 he hit the 9 month mark. He's an amazing little guy.

Weight:

20 lbs. 2.5 oz (25%- 50%)

Height:

29 inches (75%)

Head:

18 inches (50%-75%)

Talking:

He's making so many sounds that its hard for me to keep up. Let's see, here's what he's saying (trying to put it in order of what came first):

ahh

da-da

ma-ma

na-na

ka-ka

ga-ga

da-e

I think that's everything. Its seems like every couple of days he gets another sound.

Eating:

No more baby food. He refuses to eat baby food out of a jar. He loves, loves, loves Cheerios. Dan Michael also hates to be fed off of a spoon, he wants to feed himself everything. So, we have to find things that he can feed himself and we break it up small enough for him to eat. He enjoys mashed potatoes but it depends on his mood if he going to eat them off the spoon. Seems to be pretty independent.

Crawling/Cruising:

Dan Michael has masted crawling. He's quick, and loves to chase Mollie. If you not looking and he gets a away, your most likely to find him in a bathroom. Not sure why, but he loves bathrooms!

Yep, he's getting to be a big boy, cruising along the furniture. He has let go before, only to fall right on his behind. I think he will walk before his first birthday but only time can really tell.
