Baby boy,
You are now 9 months old! I know I say this every month, but I seriously can't believe it. In only 3 short months, we will be celebrating one whole year of you being alive!
This month, you have started crawling really fast. When you spot someone or something you are excited to crawl to, you will crawl really fast, get a huge smile on your face, and start panting. It is the cutest thing ever. You have also learned how to pull up on pretty much anything and everything now, and recently started to use your walker to take steps. You are literally growing up right before our eyes!
You are starting to eat a little bit more finger foods and you are not quite sure about them yet. We love your funny face when you eat something you are unsure of. You are eating stage 3 foods now and you are still taking 4 bottles a day.
You have another ear infection this month and this time it is a double! You are such a good baby that you never even let us know that you are hurting. The only reason we went to the dr. in the first place was because you have had this cough for a long time, a runny nose, and your eyes just looked like you didn't feel well. Hopefully after this round of antibiotics, we are done with ear infections for a while!
You weigh 20.5 pounds and are 29.5 inches long. You are growing out of some of your 12 month clothes! I should have known you would be long like your daddy. It is hard to believe that you started as this tiny little guy who has grown into my big baby!
You are saying, "babababa" all the time now and just tonight actually you finally said mama (although I don't think you knew you did.) I loved it and almost cried though. You are also starting to make a bunch of noises using your tongue and while doing that spit flies everywhere. Recently while saying "baba", you will say it really loud and it sounds like a squeal. We laugh so hard every time you do it.
You have 2 bottom teeth now, but that is it. I think you will get more soon because you are gnawing on everything in sight.
You met mommy's grandma in October and you got to meet a lot of family in daddy's family this month at Thanksgiving including Memo. You will get to meet all of mommy's Louisiana family next month at Christmas. You are such a good traveler, and as usual, are the most content baby in the world.
We hear almost daily from Mrs. Shelley or church nursery workers that you are the happiest, most easy going baby in the world. Someone told me that if she had octuplets, she would want eight of you. You see my darling, everyone loves you so much!
We love you so much baby and can't say enough how lucky we are to have you and how greatly you have blessed our lives.
