Crawling Garett

I don't know if I blogged about this or not, but Garett has been my early crawler.  He wanted to crawl so bad between 7 and 8 months and worked so hard to try to get it but just before he turned 9 months, he finally got it down.

9 Months - WOW

Greyson is now 9 months old! Lets catch up with him...shall we?

*I took him to the Dr. on Friday and he weighed 17 lbs 15.5 ozs.

*He is now in 12 month clothes. Still in size 2 diapers but only because I want to use them all...He should be in size 3.

*He is an amazing eater. He eats his solids 3 times a day & loves to eat everything. He then eats dinner with us as well. He loves rice, bread but doesn't like potatoes or pasta. He also still nurses 5 times a day! No wonder he is 18 lbs!

*He is now rolling both ways, finally. He is starting to like being on his belly now as well. We might have a crawler on our hands soon? He is trying to be on the move more and more.

*He is a HORRIBLE sleeper all of a sudden. He wakes up at 11:30ish, 1ish, 3ish and then 4:45ish to eat. We don't know why he is waking up but it is sure killing me! He is still napping about 3 times a day because of the horrible nights sleep.

*We took him to the Dr. on Friday & the Dr. said he has Allergies on top of a virus on top of teething. BLAH!

*Speaking of teeth, he now has 6! I would totally be okay if he stopped teething for a hot minute! Either that or it is time to start weaning!

*He loves his jumperoo, loves to wiggle when you are changing his diaper & try to reach for anything and everything on the floor he can. He also loves sitting in the high chair and feeding himself those Gerber snacks while I make dinner or clean. He also loves to stand. He will grab your hands, shirt anything he can get to to try to stand up!

*He is still a big time momma's boy!

*He is a clapper now and claps his hands together.

He is our cute little charmer and we love him!

9 Months

I am still not getting any better at this Monthly post. At least I haven't given up! It should have been my 1st one today, instead of the last post of the day! Oh well, here's hoping I remember all the new things for this month! If not, I will add later.


First off - His 9 month stats!

17 lbs 7 oz

27.25 Inches long

17.25 Head

I don't have the %tiles right now so I will get them later & post them! Now, for the FUN stuff.

*We have moved his crib down now so he can start trying to stand in there anytime now!

*He has found his "down there" area. We had a little issue with his "down there" area at his 9 month appointment, but it has been taken care of.

*He is starting more & more each day to like tummy time & try to get on his knees to move. Hopefully he will crawl soon.

*He is still a blubbering fool!

*He now reaches for people.

*He LOVES food, all of a sudden & will eat & eat & eat whatever you feed him!

*He rolls from his back to his belly to his back again like he has been doing it forever.

*He still likes his jumperoo, but would rather sit on the floor & play with his toys or scoot to the tree to take ornaments off.

*He HATES getting into his car seat, but as soon as he is strapped in, he is fine.

*His bedtime is now bath at 7, eating at 7:30 & bed by 8, & he still sleeps until 5:45 when it is time to feed before I go to work! It has made for a more pleasant baby at night.

*He is a dancing fool. We will play music & he will just move his whole body! It is super cute.

*He kinda waves at people, but I think it is to get your attention to pick him up because he kinda waves & then reaches up for you to pick me up!

*Most the time when we take pictures of him lately he looks so drugged up or extremely tired in them! I think that is why I haven't been taking a lot of pictures of him...SAD. That is a new years resolution!

*He has started eating those puffy fruit things by himself now!

*It looks like he still has a clogged tear duct in his right eye, so we have gotten a referral from our pediatrician to a Pediatric Opthamoligist. I will keep you all updated on how that goes & what happens.

I can't believe how big he is & how fast he is growing! We love our little monkey!
