9 months!! Ugh it hurts so much that our baby has slipped away from us and a little toddler is showing up quickly. The joy you bring to our family in indescribable but here is a little snippet:

Thankfully you still feel like a baby because you aren’t on the move yet. you’ll try to move around a little and spin around but can’t actually get moving, loves to clap, a very chatty little guy and it sounds like you say dada, just the smiliest content baby, lets anyone hold you and you sure get handed around when we are in public. Think your siblings are the funniest and that they hung the moon and stars. Works great with mom on the floor and grabbing all her papers makes you happy. Anything can be a toy to you because you are the 5th child and just want to hold something. Completely zooms around the whole house in your walker. you get everywhere you want – excellent driver, know how to back it up and adjust, you tear everything off benches or out of drawers. You spend tons of time in the car bringing your siblings everywhere. You have had some cold and runny nose but handled it like a champ.

Still just 2 teeth but man those front two teeth are super swollen and got to pop any moment. We had some very rough days of sleep this month, up 5/6 times a night. Mom was starting to lose it from being up SO MANY TIMES. But you’re the baby and you get what you want! Napping is good tho – nap well in the crib and this is the month you move to the crib full time. usually 2 sometimes needing that 3rd cat nap. Bedtime depends on if you get it or not – But you are usually an either 7-6:30 guy or 8-7.

loves all food these days, favorite would have to be mashed potatoes yogurt, or soup. But will eat anything tho not a fan of puffs or rice husks like the rest of them. not very good at feeding yourself yet, love all the baby food, tho will puke every once in awhile if something goes down and don’t like it. Do not take bottles well… will take maybe 2 ounces at my mom or crystals to stay alive but that is IT. otherwise you want to nurse – have to be in private or you are distracted. but you love it and that’s why we are up all night so you can do it because you are too busy during the day to nurse.

You’re the loudest pooper i know. doesn’t matter how hard or soft it is you are grunting like crazy. lets hope that continues when it comes to potty training to make it easy. Wearing size 6-9 months and size 3 diapers
