9 Months

Happy 9 months, baby boy.

Time is moving quickly and your birthday is fast approaching  (your FIRST BIRTHDAY!)

You are growing more each day, really starting to play with and enjoy your sister, getting into everything, and keeping me on my toes constantly.

Here are some Fun Facts at 9 months:

• We keep bathroom doors closed at all times; your favorite new activity is splashing in toilet water  :)
• You have six (SIX!) teeth
• You're on a 2/3/3 schedule
• We transitioned to your convertible car seat
• You're obsessed with Abigail's Potty book and actual potty (see above!)
• You're constantly pinch your fingers in the kitchen doors and drawers
• You have an odd habit of putting your hand in my mouth while nursing (luckily you don't nurse well in public, so we save ourselves the odd looks)
• You wear size 3 diapers and Abigail wears 5's, but since you wear her diapers at night anyway, I condensed the diaper order to all 5's.  Simplicity is golden.
• Dad and I went to Walla Walla and spent our first weekend away since you were born (I missed you like crazy!)
• Father's Day fell on your 9 month birthday, so you and Dad shared the (weird) holiday
• You love drinking water from cups
• Thanks to having a big sister, you've tried most every food at this point: eggs, peanut butter, juice, almond milk...
• You went through a period where you crawled around all day with a golf ball in hand  :)
• You love cruising over to the family room to play the harpsichord or bang on one of Dad's guitars

You are such a delightful little one; always so happy, friendly, and good natured.

Watching you grow is a JOY.

I love you, GG Boy.
