9 Months

Our sweet baby boy is 9 months old today. I can't believe in just a few months, he'll be a year. The time truly does fly, but it is such a sweet, sweet time. I love how, as he grows, he is coming more and more in to his personality. Some of that personality is showing to be stubborn and hard headed, but that's only a small part. For the most part, he is an incredibly happy baby. He laughs all the time. He loves to make noises such as growling, screeching and yelling and then laughing at himself. He's learned to clap. He's learned to begin chasing Peaches around and loves it when Peaches comes and sniffs him because it tickles him. He loves playing with his little friends at church, but hasn't quite figured out that he can't pull up on them like he does us. He loves to stand at the door when Peaches is outside and bang on the door and yell for her. He's begun babbling some rather than just making sounds. He makes a sound that sounds like he's trying to bark, I guess because he hears Peaches bark, but it's hilarious. He keeps us laughing all the time. There is pretty much never a dull moment. At the same time, if he's not happy, he definitely lets you know it. He has a very pitiful cry that is hard to resist when he's mad or sad. 

Here are some of his 9 month pictures and a few others from this past month.

This particular picture is getting somewhat dangerous to do, so it might be the last month for that considering he definitely tried to come off the chair.
