9 Months

So you are 9 months old.  You are gradually getting a little more high matenience each day.  Haha!  Your perfect sleeping habits are coming to an end.  Now some nights I don't think you stay in your bed for more than an hour.  For the most part, I think it's just teething that is bothering you.  Because some nights you will stay in your bed all night long!!!  You are also very mobile!!!  Crawling, pulling up, and even a little cruising.  You have learned to stand up and sit down.  It's a very hard hit when you fall but you think it's funny and will do it over and over again.  You did this at Nana's and we laughed and laughed.  I just can't leave you for a minute because you will be pulling up on something that you shouldn't be pulling up on.  For some reason, you don't like to hang on to anything so I am so afraid you are going to fall on this tile!  Needless to say I am one tired Momma these days.

Here's what you're up to:

* teething like crazy...4 top teeth are coming in at once.  You have been getting a lot of low grade temperatures.  The front left tooth finally came through....yea!!!

* lbs

* eats 4-6 oz every four hours

* eats 3 meals of baby food a day

* eats puffs...not big on real food.  You act like you want it but when it gets to your mouth you spit it out.

* loves that paci!!!

* has to be standing up beside the toybox or pulling up on anything near you.

* can wave hi and bye bye...not necessarily at the right time but now you know you can do it maybe you will do it more often

* letting go of toy boxes or couches and trying to take at least 2 steps and then will fall on your face if I am not there to catch you.

* plays patty cake when I sing it

* walked behind a baby stroller at Aunt MiMi's.  They have better carpet for that and you were able to control every step
