*9 MONTHS*

{August 13, 2010}

Love LOVE LOVE this age! Dax is so curious! He loves to explore everything he can. YES, he is crawling and I am afraid the holding days are over. Dax is so proud of himself now that he can crawl....he thinks it's pretty cool! (We do too!)

*Dax is on the move....he crawls ALL over!
*Pulls himself up in his crib.
*Waves "Hi" and "Bye" SO so cute!
*Loves shoes....he is a magnet to them. We try to hide them but he still manages to find them somehow. Oh yeah, and he likes to suck on them....so gross!
*Eats baby food 3x per day and puffs here and there.
*Is mostly on formula now....almost done nursing.
*We can FINALLY see his bottom teeth....I think they will officially arrive in the next day or so! (Yes, he has been a little more fussy than normal, but is still a GREAT baby.)
*Shoes do NOT fit....not even sandals. His feet are way too thick and chubby!
*Will only use the NEWBORN sized binkis. When we give him a normal size he gags, spits in out, and pulls the "bitter milk" face.
*Goes to bed around 8pm and sleeps until 7am. Sleeps ALL night except right now since he is teething. He wakes up a few times and needs his binki.
*Loves to crawl to Stella....Stella then runs to the other side of the room and Dax will follow.This goes back and forth a few times until Dax finds something else.
*Dax's favorite toy right now is his stacking cups. He loves when we build a tower so he can knock it down. If he is across the room and sees a tower he turns on the turbo and crawls as fast as he can to knock it over!
*Babbles in a deep voice sometimes....don't know where he learned how?
*Wears size 12-18 month clothes

STATS from his 9 month appointment!
Weight: 19lbs 13ozs 37%
Length: 27.5in 25%
Head:17.25in 15%

On paper he looks like a little guy, but he is not! Most people who see him comment on how big he is. He is not lacking in the "chub" department either....he has plenty of rolls to go around!

We LOVE you Dax man!



Loves to drink water from a straw!
Getting into his toy basket
ahh....what should I grab?
Crawling baby boy!
He loves his buggy too!

VERY good at waving "hi" and "bye"
"Hi"

I CANNOT believe how low he is in percentile....okay he is seriously chunky!!! Maybe, he is just short and solid? I would have thought he would have been way up there!!! So cute, we sure miss him!!!
