9 Months!

3/4 to a year, baby! As I always say, time is going by much too quickly, and I need to find a way to slow it down.

As a 9 month old, you are

• taking every single nap in your crib, and sleeping most of the night in there as well. You usually go down around 9:30 and are up again the next day by 8 or 9. Still taking 2 naps, one in the am and one in the pm.
• eating 2 meals of solids a day, breakfast and dinner. Pretty sure I will be introducing lunch into the mix soon. Also, you still refuse anything but purees and puffs. Lumpy food isn't something you enjoy at all.
  
• back in disposable diapers, you have gotten quite the sensitive tush in the last little while and cloth was only irritating it.
  
• has
  
• a real conversationalist :P You can say mama, dada, uh oh whenever you fall down or anything else does, and wow when something is cool to you.
  
• on your way to having 4 teeth. Your top 2 have broken through the gums, now they just need to drop down.
• in love with your banana toothbrush (see monthly photos for proof)
  
• this close to walking, taking your first couple steps last Saturday to your daddy. We're still working on getting you to take more than 2 at a time.
  

I am so proud of all you have accomplished! You are in such a fun stage, I love every minute being home with you!

And some pictures.
