9 Months Old

E had little patience for his monthly milestone pics with Mr. Bear...


The sign was a gonner from the first picture


Tried to put it back on Mr. Bear and that did not go over well!







Here is what we're up to at 9 months:

*Saying "mamama" a lot - mommy is so proud! Dada is a little jealous.

*Loves to clap his hands and watches to make sure you look and acknowledge him

*Crawling! Did 7 right left right movements in a row on Sunday evening, May 1st and has gotten better and faster since then

*Starting to try and pull himself up on furniture - trouble!

*Working on "sharing." When he has a toy and we reach out our hand and ask "can I have it?" he'll hand it over to you and we say "thank you." Then he'll reach his hand out to get it back - pretty cute. On deck is blowing kisses and waving byebye :)

*Enjoys being read to, especially by Grandma Davis

*Still offering four 6oz bottles a day

*Eating 3 meals a day of stage 2 baby food. Likes most everything, isn't a huge fan of green veggies but still eats them. Tried yogurt the other day and it was a hit!

*Starting to work on drinking water out of a sippy cup with meals

*When he is home with us he is a great napper - will take a morning nap from 10:30 - 1:00 and then another one late afternoon. Been putting him in his sleep sack and laying him down in his crib before he falls asleep and its been working great! Daycare is a different story but not much we can do about it.

Our stationary days are gone (sigh) but it is so freaking cute to watch him gain confidence as he moves and the curiosity in his eyes when he explores is exhilarating
