Walker is 9 months....10 months.....11 months old!

I DID write each of these in real time....just never posted b/c they didn't have pics. I'm just giving up now ;) 

9 months old!

Weight: 21lbs 6oz (78th percentile)
Length: 29.25in (84th percentile)
Head: 17.75in (52nd percentile)

I thought this was pretty entertaining....the doctor saw his weight and asked if he has been sick lately? I said yes, he had a pretty mean stomach virus that seemed to last forever (we took him to the Urgent Care). He stated that it made sense b/c Walker's weight has dropped and that we should work on getting that back up. Whaaat?! He' still in the 78th percentile! But I guess he should be in the 90s? Ha! That won't be a problem b/c the kid loves to eat but my goodness. You'd think the doc would be happy with this chunky monkey as is!

Walker, you now have 4 teeth, JUST pulled up to your feet today!, feeding yourself more solids every day, can crawl so fast to keep up with your brother (and giggle the whole way!), and you want to get into everything!

You have been waking up at least once a night now for the past 2 weeks but the doc said this is normal for this age and should last 2 or 3 months or less. Let's hope!

10 months old!
No stats but you got your 5th tooth this month!

Sleeping like a rock star again - thank goodness! (Actually, I guess rock stars don't really sleep?)

This recap would have covered the month of December I guess? Sorry baby doll, busy month, totally skipped it, but cherished every waking minute with you!

11 months old!
Weight: 22lbs 10oz

We know weight b/c of a sick visit this month. You got the viral snotty crud with a 3 day fever. You didn't get sick until the day after Christmas so we will take it! You are absolutely the sweetest little guy when you're sick. Tons of snuggles, lots of sleeping, rarely fussy. What a little lover. I could snuggle you all day!
I'm in love with your perfect head of hair. Time to cut it soon! :(
Sleeping through the night again like a champ! You're my easy one these days since Gray has been waking up in the middle of the night and refuses to go back down until someone comes to lay with him.  (sigh) I'm sure once we get past this, it will be your turn again. :) I may never sleep again!
You just stand there and coo for me until I come to get you. Sweetest baby ever!
You started cruising the furniture this month! You seem so comfortable on your feet and really only hold onto things with 1 hand. Walking any day? Possibly!

You are simply delightful! Instant smile and giggles when we look at you, you love to engage! Lots of arm waving and giddiness from you. I think you also love music, which blows my mind b/c Grayson is just starting to show an interest in music and dancing. You seem to love to dance already!
With Cousin Edi on your 11 month birthday, New Years Day!
Your 6th tooth is coming in and overall, teething hasn't been too bad! You now eat everything we eat for the most part. I'm still reluctant with tough foods. Lately, you're on an all meat boycot. So that's nice and stressful.
So this randomly may just be a picture of you eating meat but if it is, it was the 1 and only time ever. Boo to your distaste for protein.
You say Uh oh! now. Dada is coming out more but you said Mama first so I'm totally calling this one! Grayson's first word was Dada. Yours is Mama. (Actually, it was Uh oh, but as far as parents go, it's ME.) ;)

You have become so curious and want everything of your brothers. You can wrestle with the best of them. Grayson can really bring you to a face plant on the carpet and you just giggle! It's the cutest. You are in my drawers like crazy now! We weren't going to child proof but I don't know how we will get by without it! Your Dad hated child proofing every single cabinet and drawer in our last house - there's NO WAY he'll do it in this one!
This is our last month with my baby before you turn the big 1! I can not believe how fast this year has flown by! I know people say that all the time but I am just left in awe with how you have grown up in the blink of an eye. We are planning your 1st birthday and will have more here on that! Your very 1st birthday falls on a Saturday this year - lucky you ;)
