- You have two teeth now! Your bottom right tooth broke through on Christmas day.
- You're eating one meal a day, almost always at dinnertime. You've had several different kinds of purees - in addition to tastes of many other foods; we're hoping to have you start eating what we're eating soon, but we need to start eating healthier first!
- Crawling! Yes, crawling! We first saw you crawl on January 2nd, and boy have you picked up speed since! It amazes us how fast you can get from place to place now.
- You're pulling yourself up to standing in mere seconds! As soon as you figured out how to crawl, you figured standing couldn't be that much more difficult, so you gave it a shot. It took you awhile at first to realize how close you needed to be sitting to whatever you wanted to pull up on, but now you're a pro!
- Speaking of pulling yourself up, you also take little steps around whatever you're holding on to, usually your toy box. You look like such a big boy when you do that!
- You dance! It's just the cutest thing; as soon as we put music on, you start bouncing up and down. I love it!
- You waved "hi" for the first time yesterday! The three of us were playing in Mama and Daddy's room, and you and I were standing across from the mirror. You looked at our reflection and put your arm right out to wave! I could hardly believe it, but you did it quite a few more times to show us what you learned!
- You measured in at 28 inches tall and 21 pounds 6 ounces at the doctor's office today. You also had your iron levels checked, and they were great!
You still have such a happy, sweet personality, and I think that you are certainly a laid back guy, just like your daddy. I feel like my heart is going to burst out of my chest sometimes because I love you so much! I am so, so glad that God chose us to be your mommy and daddy. You make our world a better place, and you're making me a better person.
Happy Nine Months, sweet boy!
(Oh, and on a side note: James got his orders this morning, so it's now official. We're moving to Hawaii in just a few months! Ahh!)
