Today you turn 9 months! As always, this past 9 months has gone by much faster than the 9 months before. You are sitting up really well now and rolling all over the place. I put you to bed facing one way and you're always somewhere totally different when you wake up. You are just over 17 lbs and nearly 28 inches. You are getting so big and you're not going to be a baby for very much longer.
You are such a happy, content little thing. Everybody thinks you are so adorable and that you should be a baby model. I think we'll keep you for ourselves, though. You've been a little fussy lately because you're teething. All four of your top front teeth are trying to push their way through your gums. They haven't succeeded yet but it won't be long. But usually you're all smiles and giggles. You've even started saying "mama," "dada," and "baba."
You love to play with all your little toys - especially the chew toys. And you love to watch your brothers and other little kids as they play. And your brothers adore you. Sometimes they ask if you can sit downstairs with them while they watch a show. And they always want to hold and feed you. You're starting to eat puffs but can't quite get them in your mouth yet so Jarom and Alex always want to help you. You're doing a lot better at eating baby food. Sometimes I even give you a little of what we're eating - sweet potatoes or applesauce or bread. You get so excited when it's time to eat. You kick your little legs and you laugh like Sheldon from Big Bang Theory.
You enjoy the park. Sometimes you just sit on a blanket and play with your toys and watch the kids playing. Other times you sit in the swing and you really like that. We took you to Murray Park and I wanted to see if you would like the spinny cups they have there. I put you in and spun you around and you just giggled and giggled! You might end up being a bit of a dare devil.
You are such a sweetie and we love you so much!
Love, Mommy
