9 Months!

McLleyton is 9 months old today! He is one happy, busy, growing boy who fills each day with joy! He is content, quick to smile and easy going!! 

At 9 months you ...

have no teeth

are crawling everywhere

pull yourself up on anything and everything (including mommy's leg :))

are just beginning to take a step or two around toys and furniture

get into just about everything

want to quit eating baby food and just move on to the real stuff

take two naps-usually an hour in the morning and two hours in the afternoon

love to give high fives

finally graduated to the big boy car seat (when I physically couldn't fit you in you other one)

love to play in the playroom with your sisters

find the dishwasher extremely interesting

will sign more (you version :)) when we ask you too

clap when you see us do it or when we ask you to "clap clap"

will "sing" with daddy and you LOVE to play guitar with him

when he plays he will sometimes sit like his sisters always have - with his legs back (see the picture where he's in he pantry (a shatto thing?))

does "so big"

your favorite thing to do is play ball. you love to throw the ball. (can you tell by the look on his face in these pictures...he thinks it's amazing!!! :)

like to read books

give kisses. the wettest, sweetest ones around.

throw all of your paci's out of bed at least one time before you fall asleep ( I think you do this just to see me one more time :))

wave. even to strangers in the grocery store when they wave at you. 

"babble" all day long.

call daddy "da da" 

say "numb numb" when you see us eating something that you want. yes it works well :).

love the tv remote controls

will soon outgrow your size 3 diapers and wear mostly 18-24 month clothes

wear size 12-18 month pediped shoes /5W regular size

sleep with a noise maker on 

like to play peek-a-boo 

love your sisters ...except for when you're trying to crawl somewhere and they slow down your progress

he does have other clothes than this one outfit :) I just happen to have the camera out two different days he wore it... I promise :)

are an amazing gift and each day I am thankful for you!
