Nine months!



Will posing as a cow at Amy's Ice cream after his 9 month well check last week. He's doing great and only had to get 1 shot, which seemed so easy after getting 4 at his past 3 appointments. He was 19 lbs. 1 oz and 28 inches long.
Cruising along the picnic table at the park. By the way, Will took his first steps on 1/29 last week, the day he turned 9 months! He's been taking about 3-4 at a time every day now. Hopefully, I'll be able to capture it on film soon. Other than that, he's starting to "talk" more and sounds like he's speaking some foreign language with all his babbling. He's a great eater (unlike Aubrey at his age) and loves picking up food & feeding himself. He also loves to bang on everything and wave his little fists in the air in circles, over and over again while shouting! He's starting to get more hair and his 8th tooth is coming in. He's still not a great napper (he takes 2 short naps a day), but I really don't think he needs much daytime sleep b/c he's happy all day. This weekend when we went to a wedding, he didn't sleep in the car the entire way home, about 2.5 hours. But he didn't cry either. He just played in his car seat the whole time. You'd think that he'd crash in the car if he were sleep deprived. Anyway, we love the little guy so much and are so thankful for him!

It is almost as if Will thinks that he's about 9 months older than he is. He weighs as much as GC did at age 18 months (and for about a year after that) has double the amount of teeth of my 15 month old daughter and is walking sooner than most kids can fully grasp crawling. Go, Will! Where there's a Will...
