9 months...

I have to say that this is one of my favorite ages. Hobie is so responsive and such a delight 99% of the time. He really has become animated and quite vocal in the past few weeks. Here are some of his 9 month stats.

he weighs in at 17 lbs 12 oz.

he dropped a little weight for the new year.

loves to reach and point to and at things..

gives hugs and kisses ...it is the only way we can get a cuddle out of him

favorite words are mama (I told him he better recognize!)and baba(bottle)

loves airplanes. goes crazy when he sees one in the sky.

still a dancing fool. he has even added music to his repertoire and likes to sing himself to sleep when he is in his crib.

will scoot if absolutely necessary to get something but prefers not too. no desire to crawl. the dr. said we had to stop giving everything to him and make him do it himself. what a meanie.

loves to stand in his crib and will walk with help, but like the crawling he really just can't be bothered.

hates sippy cups, but loves to drink from a straw or regular cup.

loves to feed himself.

still zero teeth.

And really, how handsome is this boy?? Seriously.

I adore him.
