What a Busy Month!

Your ninth month on earth has been a busy one. It really feels like you are growing up fast this month. You started the month getting strong enough to stand on your own and ended the month having your first Easter egg hunt at Granny's. Every year we go to Granny's nursing home, and do an Easter egg hunt. It is one of Granny's highlights of the year and you boys love it.

Other highlights of the month:

 - You waved bye-bye for the first time (You waved to Papa when we left church one night)

 - Signed "Finished" February 18th to Mommy when you didn't want to eat anymore

 - You Understand the word “no”

 - Makes “clicking” noise with mouth (You do this ALL the time. You just go around "clicking")

 - 7 teeth (Wow, Bud!)

 - You can “throw" the ball to Mommy

 - You put EVERYTHING in his mouth

 - You are cruising around furniture

MAJOR Boo, Boo!

(You were crawling around at Papa and Nana's house and rubbed up against the bottom edge of a chair Nana had just redone and scratched all the way across your back on a nail.)

8 Months

My favorite of this month is you have started to say Elijah. I love how you say it; "e-e-e". You are still jabbering and jabbering. You are also still drooling all over your clothes and have successfully gained 4 teeth now.

Just last month you learned how to crawl and now you are crawling all over the house. Also, you have started to pull up on furniture and toys. Sometimes you get pulled up and then can't figure out what to do. This makes you very upset, but makes great memories that have to get caught on camera. Love you, Buddy.

"Somebody help me!"

See that upper BIG tooth?
