We had Wyatt's 9 month visit last week. We are weighing in at 22 lbs!
At 9 months you:
* have 4 teeth- 2 top- and 2 bottom. They were NOT fun coming in. This process also broke your excellent sleeping habits and now we're up 2 times each night. You usually go back to sleep quickly after the first waking- but you will ONLY go back to sleep if nursed on the 2nd. Mommy is too tired to fight you after 6 weeks of this sleep pattern. You win.
* Crawl all over the place and speed crawl when you're excited.
* can pull up, stand in place, and "walk" between furniture. Or around it. (As long as you're holding on).
* Still love Praise Baby. It's 30 minutes of automatic "free" time for mommy.
* Like to play in Mommy's hair accessories tub while she gets ready every morning.
* Squeal and giggle when tossed in the air.
* Go for dump truck rides with Daddy in your Tonka truck. Though- you may not fit in it for much longer.
* Are in 12-18 month clothes but have stabilized in growth
* Are interested in table food more and more. If you can feed it to yourself- you are much happier.
* Do not like fruit with the exception of bananas.
* Take two long naps (Thank goodness!) if we are home. 1.5 in the am, 2 in the afternoon. Things get ugly if you don't get at least one long nap.
* LOVE bath time. You're favorite game in the tub now is to throw things off the edge into the water. You giggle/squeal when it makes the splash.
* Are a Momma's boy. For real.
* Love being outside.
