I'm a big boy now I'm 9...

If I'm not mistaken...was it not just yesterday I posted "I'm a big boy now I'm 8!"
(8 months)

Apparently 4 weeks feels like one day around here...sheesh!

Today, Colt and I went to pick up our Mamaw and headed to the nearest Pumpkin Patch. Sadly, around here the pumpkin patch was in a parking lot and not on a cool country farm, but we took what we could get especially in the dreary cloudy weather.His little red head looks like a pumkin!Here is what our 9 month old precious pumpkin is up to these days...

...size 3 diapers
...size 12 month clothes

...size 4 shoe
...has 5 teeth! 3 top two bottom

...loves to eat bread, cheese and mashed potatos off mommy or daddy's plate

...still sleeping 12-14 hours a night

...still takes 2 naps a day-not so much two 3 hour naps as the past few months, but occasionally we'll sneak in a 3 hour
...has almost out grown the peg pereggo car seat and will be enjoying his new Britax Marathon here in the next month

...crawling crawling

...pulling up to a stand...on everything and hasn't quite figured out how to sit down slowly. Resulting in multiple head bangs and tears.

...immitates "ball" (ba) "duck" (duh)"dad" (da da) "momma" (ma ma) "poppy" (pop pop)

...his favorite toy is his stuffed green frog

...enjoys the singing in church, but after its over the talking begins so off to the nursery we go!

...super happy and animated all the time. I wish I had a penny for every comment about his smile, laugh and personality. I would be the richest stay at home mom ever!
...EVERY time he goes from crawling to a sit up position he claps. See for yourself below...

...He claps ALL the time. I think since we laugh and clap back saying "yay colt" he thinks thats what he's suppose to do all the time.

...He thinks peek-a-boo is the best game ever
...loves looking at himself in the mirror
...looks and pays attention to pictures. He gets excited at pictures of people he knows by kicking his legs and smiling/laughing.

...He makes the most hilarious "ugly" face (as we call it) when he is frustrated. He scrunches his nose and mouth while showing his teeth saying "na, na, na"or grunting.

...loves wearing his hat

...enjoys sitting in someones lap while they read to him. He sits very attentively and quiet touching each page as someone points to a picture.

...still walks in his walker everywhere and anywhere he can get to.
...totally over his jumperoo, but its super easy to contain him in that while I get ready. Until I come up with something else, he gets to play/whine in there...

...Colt is also a great football fan. Claps, talks and yells...perfect atmosphere for him :)

Happy 9 month birthday to our "big bear, little buddy, punkin, bub, bubbers, skunky, bizaboy, ColtT, Colter, biggaboy, monkey...You are our sunshine!
