Sawyer is 9 months old!

This month I told Jordan he had the honor of trying to snap a 9 month picture of Sawyer. Despite Sawyer flipping and crawling and pulling up onto everything, Jordan somehow managed to get him on his back to continue the progression of monthly pictures.

We just had Sawyer's 9 month appt. on Oct. 29th so I have some official stats for the first time in a while. Sawyer is 18lbs 5oz and is 28 inches long. Although it seems like he's been the same weight forever he has actually gained about 2 lbs in the last two months. His two front teeth on the top just popped through and it looks like a third top one is trying to see the light as well.

His new favorite foods are grilled cheese and Dunkin Donuts hashbrowns, although he has also eaten white beans (which he likes!?!), salmon, strawberries (shhh don't tell), and a whole bunch of other random stuff.

Sawyer babbles a lot like he's having a conversation, but mostly sticks to the basics: dadadada, mamamam, babababa. The pediatrician he saw loved him and said he was very social and in perfect health- who could ask for anything more.

We just moved Sawyer into Hudson's old crib and he is sleeping in the same room as Hudson now. The last two nights have gone well so maybe we have a room to ourselves and a guest room too- Keep your fingers crossed!

Sawyer's latest and greatest favorites: drinking out of a straw, being tickled, eating sand (yeah, good fun), taking a few steps between Jordan and I or thinking he can really walk and just letting go of the couch to try to walk to something, ripping magazines, flirting with women at the Commissary, pulling books out of our bookshelf... yeah, he's a mischievous one just like his brother!
