3/4 of a year..



Rece is 9 months old! As we speak he is thrashing around in his crib, struggling to get to get settled in to sleep, I believe because he has another tooth coming in. On that note, lets get right to the stats:

-He pulls himself to standing on anything and everything, including things that do not support him and tip, along that line, he had his first fat lip this past weekend. Went from sitting to face plant onto a toy. Ugh, as I know it is the first of many boo-boo's.
-He also tries to turn and get to the next item of support but can't quite coordinate the thought with the feet yet.
-He just started clapping his hands by himself. I think this is the cutest thing he does, it is so adorable.
-He crawls like a madman
-He has 4 full teeth and one that is just poking through. His two top front teeth are pretty far apart and we joke that he looks like Michael Strahan ;-)
-His hair is so long in front it is in his eyes and I can't bring myself to cut it
-He is close to dropping his late afternoon nap, and he goes to bed around 7:15 pm and sleeps until 6/6:30am (if we let him babble on the weekends, he will drift back off until 7 ;-)
-He clearly says Baba and Dada but not in the direction of those things. He also says GaGa and my favorite the AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, he stretches it out like when you take a drink after you have been really thirsty. He and I do this back and forth and he loves it, all smiles. He more or less combines all of his "words" into his own baby babble fest.
-He loves Emma, he squeals with delight whenever he sees her and tries to chase her, she runs away as fast as she can.
-He was almost 22 lbs, 28 3/4 inches long and his noggin grew from the 35 percentile to the 68th percentile.
