9 Months!

I cannot believe our little preemie is already 9 months! Time has flown by! He had his 9 month well-visit today and was his happy little self for the Doctor. She said he looked great and was right on target with everything. Here are some fun things about him being 9 months:

• He can army crawl across the room. Some babies don't graduate to the hands and knee crawl, so we will see what happens!
• When I stand him up, he can hold on to something all by himself! He hasn't pulled up on his own, but his legs are good and strong, so we should be seeing that soon!
• He now has the green light on some table foods and meat!
• He cut his first tooth today! I noticed at church yesterday that his gums were white on the bottom and that there was a lump. This morning I could actually feel the tooth! We haven't noticed him being fussy or anything, so he is one tough cookie, I guess!
• Speaking of tough cookie, today at his Dr. appt. he had to get his finger pricked. He totally didn't even notice that his finger had been pricked. He was just smiling and laughing! He's such a big boy!
• He had started majorly jabbering again. Mostly dadadada, but likes to add in every now and then: baba, gii, mama (hardly ever) and nana.
• He is a happy boy and will clap and wave to show it!
• He is in the 50% or above for every category, so he is right on track!
