9 Months Old


9 months old

Miles turned 9 months old last week, but I hadn't gotten around to taking his 9 month picture. Plus I wanted to wait until after his dr appt, which was on Tuesday. No shots, just his flu shot, which Elijah also got.

Here are the stats:
Height: 28 1/2 in
Weight: 19 lbs 5 oz

One of his top teeth has broken through. He is eating well, both his baby food and small bites of table food. He has been weaned, is now taking a bottle. I didn't realize that I would miss holding him so close to me, but I am happy to have that freedom. He is almost crawling. He sort of ooches forward by pushing his feet. I won't call it crawling until he does more than two ooches.

Best news of all, he's been sleeping really well. Hope I didn't jinx it by blogging about it.

I can hardly wait to celebrate Christmas with the little guy.

Meet & Greet


Miles & Elijah cuddle with Nana & Great Grandma Joyce

Miles (& Elijah) enjoyed a nice visit with Nana and met their Great Grandma Joyce for the first time. Miles was his ever-charming self, always willing to pose for pictures and dole out his famous smile. He surprised all of us by saying his first word, Mama. He can also say Dada.

He's already at 20 lbs, but we'll have official stats when he goes to his doctor appt in three weeks.

We've been on a roller coaster of sleepless nights, but he's slept through the night the last two nights. What's the magic formula? We don't know. But like a superstitious sports player, we don't want to change anything. So we're sticking with the lucky jammies and the gas medicine before bed.
