9 month check-up

Today was my check up at the Dr's office, since I'm 9 months now!

Here's me with dada waiting for the Dr. They made me wear only a diaper so dada was keeping me warm with my blankie!

Mama forgot to post about my milestone last Sunday so I thought I'd help her out! She is busy growing my lil brother or sister in her 'tummy', you know.

Lately, I've been exploring and climbing and opening and digging and pulling and dragging pretty much anything I can find or get my hands on.

Mama says "No no" a lot and I think she is trying to hide or keep me away from the really good stuff... cause she always says it and then when I go ahead and do it anyway she comes over and picks me up and puts me on the complete opposite side of the room. So then I have to crawl all the way back over to find out what she's hiding! It's the game we play pretty much all day long!

By the end of the day I'm pretty pooped out and ready to go to bed.

I eat three meals a day just like mama and dada do. I still have a bottle in between. Although mama keeps putting my milk in this weird thing with handles on the side. The milk comes out the top part and I'm still trying to figure out what she expects me to do with it. She looks a little frustrated when I get sick of it and throw it on the ground. But then she gives my my "baba" and we are both happy again.

I've got two teeth on the bottom now and the doc said today that the top two are not far behind. I'm sure hoping they don't hurt like these others did but even if they do, mama is nice to cuddle me and hold me any time I want her to. I think she loves me a lot.

I've been toying with the idea of trying this walking thing. I like to pull myself up on the furniture so I can see better whats going on around me and then I'll hang on and walk along it. I can even stand up from sitting with out holding on, but usually I get a little worried by the time I'm up and so I sit right back down.

For now I can get around pretty quick on my hands, one knee and then one foot. At least mama and dada say I'm fast!

So here's my stats from the Dr's office today:

Weight: 20.1 lbs (75%)

Height: 29 in (90%)

So that's me at 9 months. I'm going to go see what I can get into ;)
