Almost 9 months!


Our little baby is growing so fast!  He is going to be 9 months in two days! Robby has cut 3 more teeth since our last update, began eating solids and has been army crawling everywhere.  We are glad the top 3 teeth all came in at once to get over with the drooling, unhappy peanut.  Since he cut his teeth we noticed a huge increase in talking. It is nonstop bababa, screeching, squealing and, most recently, MAMAMAMA!  He has no idea what he is saying but he says it!

Robby is still on the small side but does not lack for food.  He has 5 feedings of milk each day in addition to three meals of various puréed or small bits if veggies and fruits.


The army crawl.  It began right after the 6 month mark and has continued since.  I believe it has been perfected as he scoots quickly, can turn on a dime and can make it around our house easily.  We can't decide if he will crawl-crawl or skip to walking!  He has, just recently, been trying out the hands and knees thing but usually when he thinks no one is watching.  Robby also demands to stand by army crawling to our feet or legs and whining, gah!  He is able to do most of the work to get to a seated position by leveraging our fingers and likewise from a seated to standing position.  If he does decide to crawl our best guesses are he will quickly progress to standing and walking!  Scary!

More to come after his 9 months appt!
