Ninth Month

knows how to roll around, yet still stays in one place if left on his bum. still super smiley. wearing 18 month clothes mostly. likes the cold weather; will laugh and smile when we are out in the cold and rain. doesn't like the car wash. will put item in boxes or my hand. waves hello, but it looks more like "come here". likes to chew on strings and cords. loves to stand while holding my fingers. chows down on the gerber graduates sticks, but will not eat cherrios or the gerber puffs. loves to swing at the park. love to socialize with other children. on a good nap/sleep schedule - finally. not very talkative. loves library visits and reading books on my lap. getting pretty good at turning the pages. eats everything, but especially likes feeding himself. likes running errands; sometimes when he is just cranky pants, I stick him in the car for a trip and he perks right up for the entire errand.

Love that little man of mine.
