Grayson: 9 Months Old

(those cheeks!)

Here we are...9 months old and mama is getting ready to start planning his big first birthday party. Actually I've already come up with some ideas in my head but that's neither here nor there. What's wild is that soon I will have a 2.5 year old and a 1 year old. HOLD ME.

So, Grayson is now crawling across rooms like he's been doing it his whole life, and has also added some yoga moves that resemble downwards dog to his resume. He is trying to pull up on everything now, so basically my days of him being a little baby are pretty much over. Insert mini sob fest here. He reminds me a lot of Camden when he was at this age...I think it's because he looks a little more like him but also because they have the same exact laugh!

Here's what else has been new with baby Gray (I WILL continue to call him this forever, obviously) this past month...

Milestones//Special Moments: 2nd trip to Florida (and 2nd time on a plane!) // 1st haircut this past month! // Can sit up and pull up from a crawling position // 1st time sitting in the front of the shopping cart! // Interested in drinking out of a sippy cup and does pretty good at it // Has been a little more clingy this month // 1st time eating Chik-Fil-A :)

Weight/Height: 9 month apt is this Friday, will have to update once we find out! He has the most delish thighs though! I just want to eat them!

Hair: Brown

Eyes: Brown

Clothes: 12-18 months (he seriously grows out of clothes so fast!)

Diapers: 3's 

Sleeping: Down to 2 naps per day now! If we're home and I see he's a little tired, I will put him down for a little cat nap around 330 and he will usually fall asleep for about 30-45 mins.

Likes: Bath time with his brother // Shape Sorter (he's gotten really good at finding where each shape goes!) // Swinging // Eating (boy can DOWN some food!) // Being goofy at bedtime // Playing with balls (I think he sees Cam playing with them all the time that he is even more interested in them!) // Trucks and playing with their wheels // His wubbanubs (the love is STRONG!)

Dislikes: When people are eating and he isn't and when his food is all gone!

Eating: Down to 3 bottles per day and is mainly off purees (I will give him a pouch out of convenience when needed) I'm a little nervous how I will get this child off of bottles because he is obsessed with them.

Health: We are so thankful that he hasn't been sick at all these past few months! Phew!
