Ben's 9 months

Benjamin! I can't believe you are 9 months. I still look at you and think of you as a bitty baby, but boy are you doing your best to show us that you are not!
Here's what you have been up to:
*weight: 18lbs, 1 oz (15%)
*height: 27 in (10%)
*head: 44 cm (25%)
*eating almost anything we put in front of you (the only thing you really turn down is avocado)
*trying to use a spoon
*lots of babbling and spitting (that's your newest favorite thing to do)
*sometimes will wave hi or bye
*follow Zeke everywhere
*starting to have some separation anxiety over when I walk away from you
*REFUSES the bottle and won't take milk out of a cup- I can't be away from mealtimes currently
*Sleeping better (we have had a couple 10p-7a and even one 7p-6a)
*crawling all over
*pulling up on everything
*trying to climb anything you can- stairs, entertainment center, toys, people
*still wearing size 2 but sometimes size 3 diapers
*still in lots of 3-6 months, but 6-9 months are fitting better and you wear some of those too
*your smile lights up any room
*eating finger foods
*working on your first tooth (and boy are we ready for it to come in!!!!)
*love walking while holding our hands
*don't really like anything that confines you- the stroller, car seat, walker, jumper thing
*we affectionately call you "wild and crazy"
*LOVE taking baths
*lots of gurling, spitting
*I'm pretty sure you have said hey a couple times



pulling up on everything

Loved pulling up and seeing himself

YIKES! where's that gate?

Come in!

I need one of the float things for myself

Loves any kind of water

first taste of donuts, and yes he is a fan!

Sweet face
