Besides Scott turning 9 months much has happened since my last post!
I'll start with an update on Scott. And do another post about life things later.
Luckily I make notes in a Google Document that is kind of like a journal (just a line or two every few days), so I have record of what he did at 9 months.
Because he will be 10 months in less than a week!
- Crawling all over the place! He started officially crawling at 8 1/2 months. Now he is really fast and can get anywhere he wants. If you go into the next room over and call his name he will come crawling as fast as he can to find you! We've given him the nick name puppy because he really does seem like a dog, panting and happy to follow you.
- He can pull up to stand on anything. He is "furniture cruising", which is not limited to furniture. He will try and stand and move along anything he can reach. It results in multiple daily falls which I hope will end soon when he is able to stand on his own. Scott already thinks he can stand on his own. Sometimes he will just let go of whatever he is holding on too expecting to stand. At least he is not lacking in self confidence!
- I can tell he is starting to understand words. He knows what the ceiling fan is and if you say "Scott where's the fan" he will look up at it. He has even pointed at it a few times!
- He LOVES reading books now. It is the only time he will be completely still and cuddle with us. He loves seeing the pictures and looks carefully at the things you point out on the page.
- He is trying to say words. He keeps saying Mama and Dada but I'm still not 100% sure if he is intentionally saying that to me and Nate. I think it might still be part of his babbling. But I'm excited for real first words to start soon!
And look at all those teeth! He is really into that cheesy crooked smile these days. And I love it!

teeth! he's all grown up! :)
I cannot believe those teeth! Callie tries to stand by herself too and it freaks me out! She is so proud when she does it though.
