9 months... really?

Is Ji'Robert really 9 months already! Where has the time gone!

We had his 9 month appointment yesterday and he is doing great! He is just under 23 pounds so is at the 82% and at 26 inches is at the 5%, yep that was a 5! Poor thing! His head is much rounder so the flatness before is resolving so no helmet needed! And his head circumference is at the 43% which surprised me because I thought it was bigger. He is meeting his developmental milestones but is a little behind on gross motor thanks to being a little round and having a sister who weights on him! Nothing to be concerned about though. We are removing all bouncy seats, walkers, and excersaucers to promote floor time and mobility. Hes got four teeth all the way in so we will be starting to brush his teeth. And he is able to eat more table foods and such as he can.

So we have one healthy little boy! And the best part, no shots this visit!

He has started a couple new things. He feeds himself quite a bit if its not wet or sticky, he can scoot somewhat on his but when he reaches for toys and things he wants, and he is mimicing what we do too!
