Tuesday was Brody's real 9 month birthday! Unfortunately, I didn’t
get to spend much time with him that day because of parent/teacher conferences. L So, his daddy was in charge of taking his
monthly photo and spoiling him for the day.
His nine month check- up was Thursday, and his daddy also got to take him to that
appointment because I had to be at school. L

Here are his stats: Wt. 22 lbs (80%), Ht. 29 ½ (90%)
[I feel like I haven’t done the best job lately describing
bub’s milestones, schedule, etc. so here goes…]
My little Brody-boo has three top teeth, two bottom teeth,
and more pushing through on the sides. A lot of drool going on.
His teachers and the sweet ladies in the nursery at church
just squeal when he arrives, and they tell us they want to take him home. Of
course, we don’t let them. J
He is all over the place. Crawling.
He is feeding himself with finger foods.
He is waving bye-bye, but only on occasion. Same with clapping.
He is pulling up on
furniture. Lately, when I get him in the
mornings, he has one knee bended and he’s standing on one foot playing with the
top of his mobile.
He will NOT take a
sippy cup. We’re still working on it.
(All suggestions are welcomed!)
He loves to share. He will take a toy and
hug it or put it in his mouth, and then he will hold it out for you and wait
for you to hug it or put it in your mouth- then he wants it back.
He loves to play hide and seek.
He is still a little cuddle bug. I LOVE IT!
We have started
saying "no"...due to pulling hair.
The last couple months he has been going through separation anxiety. Not bad.
If I leave his sight he gets upset. Usually he doesn’t get upset if someone
else is there to distract him.
Not all the time though.
He is talking all the time. I’m proud to say
he finally says “mama.” He is starting to combine a lot of different consonant
syllables, and I tell Justin all the time that I think he just said “dada, get
baba,” or “mama wa bababa.” Who
knows. It’s probably wishful thinking. J

waiting in line
"Humm....let me check this Santa guy out."
After bub saw Santa, we trekked upstairs to take a look at all the fun arts and crafts they had to offer.
Before we left we had to get a picture beside the garland elf. Brody was clapping!
Talking to the camera and camera woman. :)
