9 Months Old!!

I am very behind with this post, you are almost 10 months old now but 9 months was such a huge milestone to me. You have been living in the world as long as you were cooking in my tummy! I can't believe time has gone so fast.

Here are you stats:

Weight: 24lbs. 9oz. 

Length: 30 1/2"

Head Circumference: 47.4 cm

You are a big boy. You get mistaken for a one year old. People say "Hi" to you and get offended when you don't return the greeting. Then I explain that you are only 9 months old and i get the same response every time, "Oh, he's so big!". It's true, you are not small but you are well proportioned and stinking cute! You give people this sweet smile. I tell you to wave or say "Hello" but you are not interested in such common greetings. You flash the biggest flirtiest smile! At least you are friendly! And definitely not shy!

Here are a few pics. that represent your 9th month of life:

You are a crazy, crazy crawler!!!

You stand in your crib. I find you like this after every nap!

You stand everywhere you can!! It's pretty impressive, all the things you find to pull yourself up on!

You are such a silly boy!

This past month has been amazing to see you grow and learn. You have developed quite the personality! You hate to hear the word no. You push the line like crazy. We say no and you do it again just to make sure we are serious. Then you will do it again until we massively distract you! You have learned to clap and wave, both of which you do only when you want. You have definitely taught me you are your own person. You mimic sounds really well and everyday your vocabulary is growing. You are my joy and insanity and I wouldn't change it for anything! I love you my boy.

Love, 

Mommy/crying over how old you are
