Eli turned 9 months yesterday! We had a celebratory breakfast at our favorite breakfast place here in Denver; Watercourse Foods. Yum! He is getting so big. We have our 9mo check up tomorrow so we will really see how big he is. He is definitely more tall than he is chubby, ha! Which is funny since Scott and I were both chubsters! I don't think I wrote anything when he turned 8 months so...
In the past 2 months Eli...
-Can sit on his own without support
-Is starting to side-sit and use his hands better for support which will help him to prop on all fours
-Can 'creep '
-Can get onto all fours with some assistance and occasionally on his own, but doesn't last too long (His gestational age is still 7mo, so we have some more time before crawling. ;)
-Is still the sweet, happy boy who loves to laugh and smile, everywhere we go people comment on how 'happy' he is!
-Likes to go for walks, ride on the swing at the park, listen to his new cd of nursery rhymes, play, shove everything into his mouth, talk to the cats, snuggle, pull mommys hair, visit museums, read books, visit with his family, stand up, and he loves to take baths!
-Still no teeth yet, but has the 'pockets' now
-Is still a good sleeper!
-And a good eater, he eats anything I give him, let's hope this holds true
Things we've discovered about Eli are:
-He has a curl to his hair, especially when wet (so cute)
-He is ticklish
-He is trying to stand in the bathtub, that's not so fun for mom and dad, hello scary!!!
-And he is beginning to show signs of waving
He is becoming more and more like a little boy, which is fun but also sad when you want them to stay little forever!
We love our 'Big E, little e' so much!!!
So cute! And I love these pictures, especially the last one. It's really great!
