9 months Old!

Mason is 9 months old today. I thought it would be a good time to let you in on all his new adventures (and ours!)

* He now has the 2 bottom, front teeth and is cutting one on the right side.
* He is scooting and crawling everywhere! We have had to do some fast and furious baby-proofing. The little guy is very curious and gets into EVERYTHING!
* He can say mama, dada, bye-bye, baba (bottle), and is learning uh-oh.
* He can make all sorts of fun sounds with his mouth...his favorite being sticking out his tongue and spitting at you. This one is especially fun when he has a mouth full of food.
* He can "kiss" and we are trying to teach him the motion of "blowing a kiss" to go with it.
* He is starting to pull up and can hold onto the side of the couch without our help for about 20 or 30 seconds. I have a feeling he will be walking by his 1st birthday.
* He weighs 20 pounds and is wearing some 9 month and some 12 month size clothes.
* He goes to the doctor on the 15th for his 9 month old check-up, so I will have all his "stats" then.


He is such a happy baby and usually only cries when he is tired or hungry. He is learning new things everyday and it is so amazing to watch. It is going to be hard on both he and I when I go back to work in August. He has become very attached this summer...and so have I. He is truly a blessing in our lives! Happy 9 months Little Man!
