9 Months

Walter is another month older! I don't know how it happened, but it did. It has been a very busy month for him.  And I know I say this every month, but his personality is really starting to shine.  He is definitely the son of Jesse and me, he is really shy, and doesn't really like to be in large noisy groups.
Some things about Walter at 9 months:

• Stats: 19 lbs 1 oz (30%), 28 inches (47%), head: 18 inches (82%)- he's a pretty small boy with a massive head, it's adorable :)
• Wearing size 2 diapers and mostly 12 month clothes
• Sleeping for about 10-11 hours straight at night, then eats and goes back to sleep for about an hour
• Takes 2 naps a day
• He is crawling! He got it down a week ago, and has been on the move ever since!
• He has learned how to stand up in his crib, which is making for some hard nights and some no nap days.  He stands up and then just cries until someone comes to get him
• He is just getting over having RSV- that was no fun at all and we are so happy it is gone!
• Even though he loves to crawl, he has become quite attached to me and usually wants to sit on my lap and play with toys instead of sitting on the floor alone.  I love how much he loves to sit with me- I never get anything done, but I don't care, sitting with him is more important anyway
• His favorite book is Brown Bear Brown Bear
• He thinks it is hilarious when Jesse or I get hurt- that is the only time that he will really laugh
• He gives me lots of open mouth kisses
• He mimicks some noises that we make, like "dada mama"
• He likes to stick his tongue out at us
• He is eating like crazy now, always wanting something
• He has two bottom teeth and one of his top ones is coming through

He sure does make me tired some days, but Walter is a little angel.  He is growing so fast, and pretty soon he will be a year old! Love my little Bugs!!
