(This is the way this picture session started...)This post is long over due. Just got away from me that is for sure.
Well, the little man is nine months. He is all boy and then some. Throws everything, grunts, has to touch everything he sees, busy, busy, busy. Keeps me on my toes that is for sure. I love every minute of it. :)
Bubbas,
Activities: You are crawling like a big boy now and because you can get around faster and more efficient your interest in walking has diminished considerable which is both good and bad in my book but it is what it is.
Play: You love to play ball with anyone who is willing to play with you. Payton is your favorite play buddy but she doesn't always play long enough for you.
Cloths: For the most part it is 12 months but there are still a few 9 month things that fit. Mostly pants and shorts. Diapers are still size 3...I feel like you have been in them forever.
Sleeping: You wake up at about 6 am every morning. I give you a bottle and you go back to sleep until 8:30/9. I have tried to let you cry it out but I am a little selfish with my sleep so I just get up, give you a bottle and go back to sleep myself. It works just fine for me. Naps these days are just two. One in the morning, 10:30/11 to about noon & one in the afternoon, 2 to 4 or 5. Bedtime is usually around 8 o'clock and by that time you don't fuzz usually and go right to sleep.
Other Big Happenings: You have six teeth with 7 & 8 almost through. Four on the bottom and two, almost four, on the top. Teething is rough on you but you are still a trooper but hoping you get a little bit of a break after these last two top ones come in. Other big happening in your life, you are going to be a big brother in January. We will see how many people actually read these posts. We'll do an actual announcement in a few days so for now...just a teaser.
Eating: So we know you have an8 oz bottle at 6 am. When you wake up to start your day you have either pancakes, waffles, cheerios, or toast with fruit baby food to go with it. You started taking a sippy cup with water or 'juice' (90% water, 10% apple juice) so that is what washes it all down. You think you are big stuff. Depending on the day you will have another small bottle late morning. For lunch it is usually cut up meat of some sort, cheese, fruit cut up & bread. Before your afternoon nap you get an 8 oz bottle. For dinner you have either what we are having or something similar to lunch. To round out the day you have another 8 oz bottle right before bed.
You make me laugh every day and your sweet face makes me smile and melts my heart. You & Payton love each other and are the best of friends. I can't wait to see what the future holds for you little buddy.
We love you very much.
Mommy, Daddy & Payton
