9 months

Yeah, this is a couple of weeks late, but due to Christmas, and New Years, and being sick before that, and the accident, I just haven't gotten around to it!

So, back on December 23rd, Bubba turned 9 month old. We had his 9 month appointment the other day, and here are his stats:

Weight: 25.8 lbs (90th percentile)

Height: 30 inches (75th percentile)

Developmentally, he crawls, and walks short distances. Still loves to walk along furniture. He knows how to open drawers and know where they are, so he will go right for them. He likes for us to "chase" him. If we start, he will start to crawl faster and giggle. He loves watching his cousins, and will just chase them around everywhere. He eats pretty much anything except for hard things now, and especially LOVES crackers, and his sippy cup. He tried avocados the other day, and loved them! He absolutely LOVES baths. If he sees the water start to run, he will do everything he can to get out of your arms and in to the water. And he will just sit and splash and play. He would stay in the water all day if he could.

He usually naps 2 times a day, and goes to bed about 11:00 and sleeps until 10:00am. Which is nice. He does not like socks, and will take them off of his feet faster than I can put them on. He also is starting to not like pants, and will try to pull those off too. He doesn't like it when you leave the room, and he has started to recognize where you put something. If you hide something behind your back, he will look for it, and try and get it from you. Here are some pictures!

He wanted an up close look at his dinner....

"Mom, PLEASE no more pictures!!"


So, this is Bubba at 9 months. I can't believe that he is almost a year old! We absolutely adore and love him, and don't know what we would do without him. We LOVE YOU BUBBA!
