You at 9 months

Here's your life at 9 months:

You weigh 16lbs and are 28 Inches long.

You are in the 3rd percentile in weight and 25th percentile in height and head circumference.

You have just started eating three meals a day. We added breakfast to the mix. Some of the new things that you tried this month are: egg yolk, cheese, broccoli, potato, pluots, and beets (gross!),

Your sleep schedule is pretty much the same as last month. You go to bed at 7 and wake up about 5:30 am to eat. You then go back to bed for about an hour or an hour and a ½. You are taking two naps a day. One nap is about a little over an hour and the other nap tends to be a little over two hours.

You wear 3-6 month pants and 6 months onesies. You are wearing 6-9 month sleepers. You went up a size in everything.

You wear a size 3 diaper. You wear Huggies overnight and Pampers/Huggies during the day.

Your hair has grown in. We just got you baby hair gel to get your mohawk going again.

You still love the water. We have to watch you really close during bathtime. You will turn to your belly, teeth on the tub and grab the shower curtain.

You are still doing the army crawl, but you are super fast. One second, I'll see you in the living room and the next time I look you are in the kitchen. You "mop" the kitchen floor for me all the time! lol

You said "dada" and it made your Daddy happy. I'm still waiting for you to say "mama".

You just pulled up for the first time (09/30)! I was so proud. I know it will be any day now that you figure out how to do that in your crib.

You are still a happy baby. We get comments all the time about how happy you are. Even though you are happy most of the time you have started to show a bit of a temper. When you get mad, you arch your back and start crying/screaming.

You still love the kitty. I have to watch you because you try to put his tail in your mouth.

Pictures of you during the last month:

Thank Grandma for your shirt.

You were sick with pneumonia and would only sleep close to me.
