9 Months!

Today, our little man is 40 weeks old! (Thanks to the weekly emails otherwise I wouldn't know the week count!) Which means, he's almost been outside as long as he was inside. Since he was a week late, we'll celebrate that next week... by taking him to Mexico. Just kidding, we're going for Thanksgiving!

Since I skipped the 8 Month Stats, let's do those first. So at 8 months, Adrian:
- wears size 2 to 3 diapers
- wears size 6 mth and 6-9 mth clothes
- discovered his high pitch squeal (and shared it with everyone on the plane)
- rocking back and forth on all fours and would really like to crawl
- took his first flight (Sept 30th) to San Francisco for Aunty Grace's Wedding to Uncle Kyle
- went to your first wedding (Sept 29th) Jason & Melanie
- got your top tooth - mid Oct and now your second top tooth is coming in as well.
- First ear infection :( a small one

Okay, it's a small list, but that cover the 8th month!

9 Months!
-18.2 lbs (24%) and 29" long (78%)
- Wears size 3 diapers
- Wears size 6, 6-9, and 9 month clothes
- Eczema is finally under control!! Medicine then Aveeno lotion, then vasoline. His elbows are the best they've look in months!
- CRAWLING!! Started on 11/4 by crawling a few inches to Momma, now if he wants to get somewhere he will. Mom and Dad are really having to watch him since we haven't done all the baby-proofing as needed.
- Dying to stand!
- Loves his bath and is now experimenting with putting his face under water. We start swim lessons tomorrow!
- He's mastered his growl and is always jabbering.
- Very inquisitive. We can tell when he's thinking hard about something or trying to figure something out.
- Eats 2 veggies and 2 fruits a day in addition to wheat cereal and ~25 oz of breastmilk!
- Starting to show some stranger anxiety and a preference for a parent at specific times.
- Awesome kiddo!

-No longer being swaddled to sleep but still loves Monkey. We's started sleeping with a blanket at night to keep warm since the temps are beginning to drop.
