Nine Months

April 3, 2015

NINE MONTHS!?

Weight: 17 lbs, 5.5 oz

Height: 28 inches

Food: Loves loves loves people food-- we haven't found a single thing he won't eat! He's a pro at grabbing things to feed himself now, too. Still a fan of anything fruity when it comes to baby food. And he's already a lover of ice-cream!

Sleep: Waking up more frequent than often here lately. I'm predicting a new tooth any day now! 

Clothes: Some 6-9 months. Some 9 months. 

Health: Aside from the never-ending cough we didn't think he'd ever get rid of, he's had another healthy month!

Likes: feeding himself, being outside, swinging, driving his Jeep, taking a bath in mom's bath tub, smiling, giggling, and talking, going on walks with mom, watching Bella, hanging out with cousin Jayleigh, bouncing, jumping, rolling, and throwing things over the side of the bed/ couch/ high chair/ any edge within his reach. 

Dislikes: When someone is eating and not sharing their food. And when mom is in his sight but not giving him ALL of her attention. 

Changes: Brysen maneuvers his Jeep through our downstairs like he's been driving for years. He can turn the sharp corners, back up in a certain direction, and go wherever he feels like going. I'm beginning to think he has no interest in crawling because he'd rather walk in his Jeep. He's recently decided he hates the pacifier (unless he wakes up and stumbles across it in the middle of the night). He's also recently discovered the teething necklace he's been wearing for the past 7 months, and he seems to find comfort in holding it as he falls asleep. He loves to be the center of attention. He LOVES Bella and he's started saying 'Beba' when he hears her collar jingling or her  nails clicking on the hardwood. Also, he has become SUCH a dare-devil.
