Wyatt - 9 Months

Excuse me, but where on earth did the last half of May and the first half of June go?!  I mean, seriously.  Time is flying.

My baby boy is 9 months old!  Three quarters of his first year - done!

Weight: 17 lbs 14 oz

Length: 27 inches

Head Circumference: Big

(side note: the clinic's computers were down on the morning of his well check so I got his weight and length but no head circumference and no percentiles... and yes, it's bothering me)

- This child doesn't stop moving.  Like ever.  Why this is so surprising to me given the energy levels of his siblings... I don't know.

- Knows where his special basket of toys is and loves to dump them out at least 17 times a day

- Can pull himself up onto his knees

- Can pull himself up onto his feet

- Still says "dadadadada" and it's starting to hurt my feelings (kidding).  Most of the time he laughs at my if I try to get him to say "mama"

- Has THE best laugh

- Knows that his bib catches his food and will dig in there once his tray is clear. I find this brilliant and hysterical

- Likes to randomly smack his lips together 

- Absolutely loves the water.  Like will try to wiggle out of your arms and/or climb out of his pool floaty and try and do it himself.  And if you are giving him a bath you might as well wear a rain poncho and googles due to the splashing and kicking

- Doesn't seem to notice or get upset when I leave a room but definitely notices when I return from being gone for any length of time.  He's so happy to see me that he shrieks and laugh/cries from happiness

- Still toothless and it blows my mind

- Loves the vacuum (like squeals loudly when it's being used and will crawl/chase after it)

- If you sing him "Skidamarink" it will stop him in his tracks... or at least get him to hold still long enough to change his diaper or clothing

- Still loves all the food

- Working on learning the signs for "more" and "all done"

- Can sort of navigate down the single stair into the formal living room but can climb up that single stair without batting an eye

- Is the best baby in all the land

Take Luck,
