Grey is 9 months old



I can't believe my baby is 9 months old. He is such an amazing boy and he has changed our family in ways we will never be able to fully understand. I do know that the love we have for him is deeper and more special than any of us imagined. He has grown up so fast and we wish he would slow down and take his time, but there is no holding this sweet boy back.
He is crawling...fast!
He climbs the stairs.
He walks the edges of things well.
He is testing his balance by letting go and can stand for a few seconds on his own.
He has 3 teeth.
He does well with all foods, but his fav is squash.
He loves balls and his only word is still "ball".
He is easy to take places and for the most part is easy going.
He loves music and loves to bounce to the beat.
His favorite song in Empire State of Mind by JayZ and Alicia Keys.
He loves to sit with his legs bent out in that painful looking, cute kid way.
He is still a mama's boy, but has a special bond with the boys and his daddy.
He won't take the bottle.
He is napping 2-3x a day for about 2 hours each nap.
He still gets up at least once a night.
He goes to bed the latest by far of any of my kids, around 8 or later.
He loves the dog.
When he wants something he makes a very certain noise and you know that he wants whatever you have. Kindof a demanding "mmmmm" noise and arches his back a bit.
He loves his new Christmas toys, but plays with the boys skate ramp and little skate boards the most.
I love this sweet baby boy and am grateful for the deeper appreciation of babies he has given me. I am definitely enjoying every moment with him.
