Nine Months Old



Here are the highlights at month nine:
  • Adam is BUSY! He is constantly on the move and trying to get his hands on everything. Diaper changes and getting dressed each day are a challenge.
  • He crawls on all fours now (versus the army crawl).
  • He pulls himself up on furniture and can stand for a few seconds on his own. He has a few bumps and bruises to show for this new skill.
  • Adam is very independent. He refused the baby food we tried to feed him, but loves eating table food because he can feed himself and gets to eat many of the same things we do. He has six teeth so he is pretty good at chewing. Some favorite foods are: waffles, cheerios, yogurt bites, and drinking water from his sippy cup.
  • He still loves to lead us around the house while we help him walk. He especially loves taking us down in the basement, to the broom closet where the vacuum is stored, and to the bathroom where he likes to brush his teeth. We visit these spots multiple times a day.
  • He is more consistently taking two naps a day, but still doesn't sleep through the night.
  • Adam drools as much as ever. We are constantly changing bibs.
  • Adam loves the outdoors. He doesn't seem to mind the cold, dreary weather and he definitely brightens our days too!
