Tommy at 9 Months

Okay, so he technically will be 10 months in just 5 days, but we did take these pictures right around 9 months, I've just been a slacker and haven't posted. And I actually got him in to the doctor within that same week. That is practically unheard of these days!

Here are some fun things to note about Tom:

He's a big 24-pound boy that is wearing 18 month shirts and 12-month pants.

He is finally crawling. Happened right around 9 months. It started out very slow and deliberate, but he's now quite quick and disappears rapidly.

Has decided that he's attached to me. He's happy until I leave the room or move away from him. I am definitely home base right now.

Will only eat baby food if it is mixed with yogurt. Likes to eat table foods and is quite good at it.

Has 5 teeth!

Makes all sorts of fun noises and likes to copy or be copied in those sounds. Still nothing consistent.

Wakes up between 1-4 times at night. Thankfully we're most consistent with the 1 time per night. And he still needs to be swaddled to be a happy sleeping boy.

Is pulling up to his knees on furniture. Still not up to his feet. But I am okay with that!

Is still a sweet snuggler. I love how cuddly he is. I have certainly enjoyed this little guy. It is bittersweet to have him growing and changing. He is truly a blessing in our lives.
