Baby Nathan is 9 Months Old!

Baby Nathan is growing up way too fast for my liking!  I am trying hard to cherish each and every milestone, but he is reaching each milestone so fast!!!!  Here are some fun things about him at 9 months old:

-Crawling everywhere, doing pushups with his bum up in the air, army crawling, and getting up on all fours.

-Pulls up onto things.  Learning to walk around objects and hold on to them

-Loves to eat.  He will eat almost anything, and can feed himself with his built in spoons - hands

-he's learned how to drink with a soppy cup.

-Loves to explore.  Now that he can get pretty much anywhere he wants, he will just explore everything.  He loves the vents in our carpet and mirror in our bedroom where he sees another baby just his size.

-He can bite!  His tooth is in, so he will bite my finger, or even during nursing.

-He can sign more

-He can clap his hands, and he will mimic you if you start clapping

-He is the happiest baby in the whole world.  Always happy, always content, always smiling

-His hair is bright red-orange!  Who would have thought!!  I love it!  And Jaxton is very proud of his baby brother's hair too, even though Jaxton's is a darker red.

-He sleeps all night long 90% of the time.  He is a great sleeper and is very predictable in his naps, something I am very grateful for when there are 4 others that are often unpredictable in so many other areas!

We love our baby so much.  Every one of us adore him.  He is a celebrity in our family!
