About the nine months chair pics.....

This was the closest I would let momma get to my boring old chair picture for the month.... yes I'm almost ten months now... I've been really busy crawling and trying to learn to walk, and learning to feed myself and things ok peoples!After one second of sitting still I got this look on my face...mwah hahaha And thought that since I am the famous one I should be able to have some creative license in my photo shoots...I call this one, "Catch me if you can."
At my nine month appointment I was 17.4 lbs, and 26 inches tall. Don't worry, that is still shrimpy. 10th percentile for weight and less than third for height. Geeze its a good thing I'm a genius and I have my charming good looks.
Developmentally this month has been CRAZY! I am crawling all over the place FAST! I am pulling myself up to standing EVERYWHERE, and much to mommas dismay I'm starting to walk behind my push toys.... yep Next up WALKING. Every time I tell momma that I'm getting stronger in my leggies and I think I'll try walking she starts to get tears and starts blubbering about how I'm not a little tiny baby.... well DUH! Look at me I big and strong!
***EARTH TO DADDY... GET TO THE BABY STORE AND GET THIS WOMAN ANOTHER LITTLE TINY BABY FAST!***
I eat a crap ton of things now. Is crap a bad word? I'm not sure if that is something a soon to be ten month old should be saying, but I said it...a crap ton of food. I love yogurt and toast and bananas and avacados and edemame and cheerios and grapes all cut up into pieces that I can hold and feed myself!! That is the way I like to eat best now, mostly because when I'm tired of eating I can throw my food instead! Isn't that great peoples! Next month momma said I could try some new things like cheese and cooked meats. I'm pretty excited, quesedilla here I come! I still begrudgingly take a bottle four times a day,but that is not my favorite thing. I'd really rather just eat big kid food all day, but momma says I need to drink my bottle. We'll see about that. I'm learning to use a sippy so maybe momma can put my milk in there soon. I just need to figure out how to tip that darn thing up so I can drink out of it!
As far as my sleep, I do it. ALOT. I love to sleep actually. I take two naps a day; usually 2 hours each. And I sleep 12 hours at nighttime. I know, I'm such a good boy.
Fun things happened in my ninth month, I went to the zoo lights with momma and daddy, There were a ton of lights on trees! It was cold too. I had a bazzillion people over to my house for Christmas! And I got to see snow for the first time. Isn't snow so COOL! Every time daddy lets my puppies in or out of the house I try to make a break for it so I can go crawl in the snow because it looks fluffy and soft! Daddy says it is actually cold and wet, but I think I need to see for myself.
As far as my googly eyes go I'm still a little googly. Bummer I know since my pictures after my surgery looked so good. But about three days after my surgery my eyes started turning in a little bit again. My doctor says I might need another surgery, which stinks. But for now since I can see just fine out of my googly eyes we are going to start to wear my glasses again and see if that helps my eyes un-google any before we do another surgery in a couple of months. The bright side is that momma gets to try to keep my glasses on me again, which is a good thing because she really was starting to get bored trying to keep me from getting into things as it is..... And the fans have been requesting my glasses so, what can I say, I aim to please!
Well I'll be posting my ten month post here soon so don't get your diapers in a bunch!
