9 months old. Really??!!?

Luke, you turned 9 months old last Thursday and I can not even believe you will 1 in 3 short months. We went to the doctor for your check up and everything is great, you are in the 75th percentile for both height and weight, no big surprise there.

So here are the 9 month stats.

Height: 29 inches

Weight: 22.2 lbs, WHOA!

Legs: CHUNKY!!

~You are such a joy to everyone around you.

~You smile at everyone, sometimes you stare and smile until they smile back.

~You crawl really fast and you pull up on everything.

~You can stand alone for a little while before falling back down.

~You are still a great eater, and you have started getting some table food.

~You sleep from about 8:30 at night to about 7 in the morning, and you nap twice a day.

~You have learned to pout, if we tell you no you turn around fuss at us and then move on. It's funny but I can only imagine what the terrible 2s will be like.

~We had to find you a cell phone to play with and you drag it around everywhere.

~You love to stand in the window and talk to the dogs.

~We taught you a trick. When I say, "How big are you?" you put your hands over your head and I say "SOOOO big!"

~You do this funny little squeal, your daddy calls it your dolphin call.

~You talk ALL THE TIME.

~You make your Daddy and I happier than we have ever been and we love you more than you can imagine.

Happy 9 months little dude!
