I orginally put "Charlie is Eight Months!" so clearly I can not believe he's actually 9 months old! What a joy this baby has brought to our house. The kids are crazy about him, fight over who gets to hold him. He's probably my easiest baby so far....I just said "so far." Let's say my easiest baby...there is no "so far" to this post! He IS our caboose. Charlie has had a big month with 2 more teeth coming in, pulling up and crawling everywhere! We brought in 9 months at the beach, but I shot some photos before we left. He goes for his 9 month check up when we get back.
Weight and height stats to come....
Clothes - squeezing in 6-9 months
Diapers - size 3 but really need to move up to size 4 at night....that poop!
Eating - 6-7 oz bottles every 3-4 hours...I KNOW I need to cut one or two bottles out...not looking forward to that because he LOVES his bottles. Starting to introduce more solids and snacks
What he's doing now:
I think his favorite thing to do right now is play fetch with himself. He will get a toy or cup/top (anything he can throw), throw it away from himself and go get it, throw it again and repeat. It's great entertainment. He loves dogs, although we don't have one, our neighbor does and he just lights up when he sees him. He's sleeping a little better. He goes to bed around 7:15 or 7:30 (if we are home) likes to wake up around 4 a.m., take a bottle and then he will go back to sleep and wake up around 6:30 or 7. He loves to explore, I'm pretty sure Colt and Addie liked to be held more than he does, but after he eats or if his happy, he wants down and ready to see what he can find. He's still not big on putting things in his mouth. He usually does it only when I tell someone he never puts anything in his mouth....so that's that.
Here is our sweet Charlie at 9 months.
