Reece,
You are 9 months old! It hit us last night that we will be celebrating your birthday in only 3 months!
We still haven't weighed or measured you this month. Sorry kiddo, life is busy. But looking at your belly and how clothes are fitting you, you are most definitely growing!
You love to make sounds. This month you have started screaming if you don't get your bottle right when you want it or if you are super tired. This is the first month we have experienced screaming in the car. We think your teeth are bothering you and you are just not a happy camper at time but are also learning that screaming gets you what you want sometimes. Speaking of teeth, you finally got the top two in and are working on your canines on the top and the bottom. Cutting teeth is hard work!
You are so busy! You crawl everywhere now, pull up on everything, and try to eat everything. You are starting to push things across the room while walking and are cruising around while holding onto the coffee table. You can also turn completely around while standing to get to where you want to go. You finally figured out how to get from standing holding onto something back to crawling. You are all over the place and we are having to remind your brothers not to leave little toys on the floor that you could choke on.
You have been sleeping through the night so good this month. You like to go to bed around 7/7:30 and wake up anywhere between 6-7. We still have a random night or early morning wake up, but for the most part you are sleeping awesome. You have figured out how to stand up in your crib when you wake up too. You have late nights every once in a while when we are out and you do great going to bed when we get home. You also still take 2 naps a day and sometimes they are car seat naps. You are so go with the flow though.
You are taking 4, sometimes 5 formula feedings still and you have started liking baby food a lot more this month. You are holding your bottles by yourself now which is super helpful when I need to do something before I can get to you. You are funny because when you are full you either start blowing fart sounds on your tray or lay your head down. You are starting to eat a little bit of finger foods. We haven't given you too much food yet because you have gagged and thrown up on it. You are starting to learn how to chew it and swallow better.
You are trying to say uh oh (it sounds like uh uh), have waved when I say bye bye or night night, and have said mama and dada (even though I don't think you know you're talking about us.)
We all love you so much little man! You really do complete our family.
