9 Months Down

Nathan is 9 months old. I can't believe he'll be a year old in less than 3 months! So here's what Nathan is like now.

9 Month Stats
Weight- 20 lbs 4 oz 50%
Height- 28 in 45%
Head Circumference- 18 in 60 %

-He is one big ball of energy. He loves to move, talk (he's great at saying da-da), and get into everything. His new favorite is grabbing the wheels of the stroller and the kitchen cabinet doors.
-He loves being mobile. He is an avid, fast little crawler. He goes everywhere, gets into everything, and loves it. He got a walking stroller thing for Christmas and it is his favorite toy ever. He is learning how to maneuver around obstacles and is loving it.
-He is sleeping longer. He sleeps from 8 to 8. He is down to 2 naps a day and is doing really well.
-Nathan loves feeding himself. He absolutely loves eating Cherrios, and he's been enjoying cheese, and he recently tried some avocado (not a big fan so far). He loves bread, applesauce, and pears. He has fun eating bananas and he still absolutely loves ice cream.
-He loves being chased around the house. He thinks it's hilarious to run away from us.
-His favorite time of the day is bath time. He would probably spend all day in there if we let him. He loves playing with the water coming out of the faucet. He loves splashing, and just enjoys crawling around.
We love Nathan so much and are so blessed to have him in our lives. He makes us smile all the time and we love his emerging personality. We're so excited for all that lies ahead!

Sarah, I love this post. My mom and I were just saying at Christmas how nice it is to see and read about the developmental changes that we can't experience in person. Love the photos with the new camera too!
