9 Months Old

You started standing up for a few seconds at a time without holding on to anything.  You are up to about 10 seconds of standing before you fall.

You are hilarious.  You have the most expressive little face and eyebrows.

You really don't like to be spoon fed so I have to some up with lots of foods that you can feed yourself. Your favorite food is toast.  If I don't offer you toast for breakfast you pretty much refuse to eat.  It is getting harder and harder to get you to take a bottle.  For the most part, I have to wait and try to feed you a bottle while you are asleep.

You are sleeping 8 hours at night.  Thank you!!!

You love music.  LOVE IT!  You bob up and down and dance as soon as you hear it.  If we sing, you sing with us.  It is so precious.

You love water.  You can drink out of a regular cup, a sippy cup, a straw cup.  You name it, as long as it is water you will find a way to drink it.

You love toilets.  Ugh.

You are not a fan of naps or having your diaper changed.

You say, "da-da" all the time.  When I ask you to say "mama" you get a funny little smile on your face and say "dada".  You like to chant, "da-DA, da-DA, da-DA".

You have 3 teeth now!

You are one tough little cookie.  You are a ball full of energy and into EVERYTHING!  You kiss yourself in the mirror and LOVE to wrestle.  You have the cutest laugh and you make us laugh all the time.

You are more loved than you could even imagine!
