9 Months

This post is all about this little guy, who turns 9 months old today. Here's some things our little munchkin is loving at 9 months.
This little guy or not so little was 20 pounds 14 ounces and 28 1/2 inches long at his checkup yesterday. Woohoo!!


 Sometimes you have to get creative. I needed to keep this little man entertained for a minute while I finished up making some baby food, which by the way he is eating as fast as I can make it... so, prop the ole computer up and turn on some veggie tales. Loved it. While we have the backside view, I think he is starting to get a rat tail... yikes. Matt says it reminds him of his childhood. Sheesh.

We try to walk most mornings and he is happy as can be kicked back and relaxed as we cruise the neighborhood. Didn't work out so well one day this week when I thought we could beat the rain... we ended up having to run back to the house. He thought it was funny, me...not so much.

Still loving the lake. He loves to play in his little pool and we try to keep him entertained with all these exciting toys and his favorite is an old crunched up water bottle.

This guy loves the water. We are spending most afternoons at our neighborhood pool and love it. All the big kids are usually gone and we have the pool to ourselves... it's a good thing because we can get pretty loud.
Fulton is still napping two times a day and sometimes you just get one wherever you can. He adapts well.

Chunky is pulling up on everything. It started in the crib a few weeks ago and now it's anything he can find. He is a brave one too.

He is a good escape artist too. This was one night after bath... he took off crawling and before I knew it he had made it close to the front door.

And last, food... our favorite. He will eat anything. Some of his faves are sweet potatoes, squash and zucchini and all fruits (including this lovely shade of blueberry that may forever be on his lips). Some of the not so faves are broccoli and avocado. He has stepped out of the box and tried lots of things on our plates too. Those days make for really great diaper changes. So, it's been a fun 9 months!! We love this little guy to pieces!
