9 Months old has got me a little teary eyed...
9 months feel very close to 1 year! How did this happen!?
Look at this sweet little guy!
B is 20 lbs 11.8 oz (70th percentile), 27.5in long (55-60 percentile) and his noggin is still the 97th percentile! He is wearing 9-12 month clothes and size 4 diapers.
Our baby Bubs is just too much these days. Pretty much always smiling and starting to talk a little bit. Lots of sounds- mamamama, dadadadaa, wawawawa, and he is even starting to try to sing and make noises that Kate makes. She likes to dance with him and say "music, music, music" and sometimes he kind of mimics her tune/sounds. It is the cutest.
Trying desperately to crawl... It will probably be any day now. Yikes!
He is still eating like a champ. Down to 3 8oz bottles a day and food 3-4 times per day. Pretty much loves any food you put in his mouth and just wants it shoveled in there FAST. He is getting really good at picking things up and feeding himself. We are starting some baby led weaning (letting him eat a lot of what we eat) which is fun and much easier!
He found this little 14 hour sweet spot this month. Goes to bed at 7 and doesn't wake up until 9 most days. Definitely worth the wait!
He also started sleeping on his side or belly. He has also started really putting himself to sleep now. He doesn't really want to be rocked and cuddled anymore... When he is tired, he wants to dive into that bed with his lovey and binky. It is great and I know we are lucky that he is easy to put down, but it makes me a little sad. Where did my snuggly little peanut go?
Changing this kid's diaper is like a wrestling match. He is rolling and grabbing everything possible.
Busy boy.
He is really starting to interact with his sissy and he just thinks she is hilarious. She can always get him to crack up and it just makes my heart skip a beat. There is truly nothing like watching your 2 babes love each other. I can't even.
Oh baby bubba... we are so lucky and blessed. You are just the sweetest guy and just such a ray or sunshine in our lives. I don't think I could love you anymore my sweet angel boy.
Happy 9 Months, Bruce!
