9 months

This sweet boy is 9 months old.  Doesn't he look so sophisticated in this picture?  He really is growing up right before my eyes.  
Wowsers!
Before I know is he is going to be 19 and going on a mission. 
As of right now he loves his independence.  He can be found "cruising" along all types of furniture and walls.  He is so close to walking...it's scary!
He is also eating all types of food and is always grunting for more.  He still smiles all the time, plays peek a boo and is babbling all day long.  He loves to stand at the windows in the family room or by the front door and people watch.  He also crawls as fast as he can to the opposite side of the crib when we go to get him.  It's his little game with us and we love it.

He is 20lbs 6oz, 29 inches long and his head is 46 cm.  Dr. Carruth said he's long and lean.  Just what Dr. Kaminskas used to say about him in every ultrasound.

I sure do love this boy of mine.  And he definitely loves his mama.  I wouldn't have it any other way!
