This month was fast and full of development for my little Pudge. He continues to be such a joy.
- I'm not even exaggerating when I say that he's the happiest, most go with the flow baby in the world
- No official weight but I'm guessing he's around 16 1/2 pounds or so. I'll know next month at his nine month well check
- He is so busy, so wiggly, so curious, and so social
- Super strong
- Snuggles his lovey, Mo, like nobody’s business. Seeing him do this when it’s time for bed is heart melting
- Starting to raise his hands up in the air to be picked up and reaches for people
- Responding to his name
- Loves, loves, loves food. He's yet to try and food he doesn't like
- His hair is getting really long and lighter in color
- Eye color remains a mystery. It's like they are a weird (and beautiful) combination of brown, green, dark blue and grey? Is that considered hazel? I don't know
- Started babbling "dadada" on Mother's Day
- Still army crawls all over the place. His favorite floor time activity is to chase a ball across the floor
- Speaking of floor time activities, he also goes straight for the dog food and water bowls
- Loves to be sung to
- Adores (adores!!!) his big bubba and sissy
- I see A LOT of Zoey in his features
- Still toothless, which is mind blowing to me. I think I started saying two months ago that those bottom teeth would pop through "any second now." Shows what I know
- Switching to the "added rice" infant formula has been a huge game changer with this spitting up
- Took his first trip across the pass to Central Washington and was a little rockstar
- Went swimming for the first time and absolutely loved it
- Is seriously the best baby in the world. Ryan and I comment on how lucky we are to have him at least once a day
Take Luck,
LP
