9 Months! Big Stuff!!

Our little Dyl-bug turned the big 9 months today (*tear, *sniff)!! Man! Time sure has flown by.... Andrew and I are both so grateful for him, and even though these nine months has been difficult at times, they have been extremely rewarding!!

There's our handsome little fella!! (ok, so technically he was 7 months in this picture, but still cute).
He is such a happy baby! And he is such a ham for the camera! It is great!!
See... total ham ball!! Gotta love him though! He is always ready to ham it up for the camera!
He has grown like a weed these nine months. It's hard to believe he started out at 7 lbs 15 oz, and only 21 inches long..
Now he is 20 lbs (50th percentile) and 28 1/4 inches (50th percentile)!!! That's a whole lot of baby!!
He doesn't necessarily like to put random things he finds on the floor in his mouth (thank goodness) although I am sure that is coming. He is more interested in licking things.. like his hand, his binky, dad's nose (which personally, I find gross), and mom's arm, among any other body parts he can get.
Also, he loves to be walked around.. It doesn't matter where we are, he wants to walk. He is getting pretty good at it, and he is starting to boogie!

Of course, he is still the center of our world! He loves his dad! Dad likes to walk him around the house when he gets home from work, so he is always happy to see dad!


He also loves his mommy! We have been having a lot of fun together now that I am out of school for the semester.
Happy 9 months of life Bubba!! Mom and Dad love you!!
