9 Months

I say this with every passing month and it's no different this month. I can't believe Bennett is already 9 months. He's turned into such big boy. I still feel like he should be swaddled and a newborn, but alas, he's not.

This past month has been a busy one for the little guy. He started crawling a couple weeks ago and is now non-stop-all-over-the-house! He can pull himself up on everything and anything. He got his first tooth! He loves to eat grapes, blueberries, sweet potatoes, watermelon, yogurt and graham crackers. He laughs and talks and imitates our sounds. He hates getting in his car seat. He loves playing with Emily and Husker. And he loves playing with and watching his older brothers.

The verdict may be out on whether they like him getting into their stuff though.

We went to the doctor today and he's as healthy as can be. He's only gained 6 ounces since his 6 month checkup. He's finally on the chart for weight and length but is still way off the charts for his head (sorry son, you have my head). No shots and I scheduled his 1 year visit (sniff, sniff). Here are the official stats

Weight: 24lbs 4 oz
95th percentile

Height: 29.5 inches
90th percentile

Head: 19.5
WAY off the charts
