9 Months

Deacon -

Today you turned 9 months, 3/4 of a year, the same amount of time you were in my tummy, you have been on this earth. The past month has been really big for you. You have started doing a lot of new things:

1. waving
2. saying da da - all the time
3. crawling
4. pulling up to stand
5. cruising
6. eating table food
7. blinking - like its a game
8. blowing kisses -without your hand, but you make the "MUAH" sound
9. And a not-so-good thing - you have started biting, ouch!

You are 20.2 lbs and 28.75 inches long and your head is 18 in in circumference. You are "average" in your size but well beyond average in mommy's eyes. You are absolutely perfect! You are really curious about everything and you want to hold, touch and taste everything you see. You have 6 teeth now and you insist on sinking them into every thing. You have bit yourself, your teacher's pregnant belly, mommy's face, daddy, mimi, even your brother, Remi. :)
