Grant: Eight/Nine Months






Grant hit nine months on March 1st. His stats are:

Height: 29inches = 75%
Weight: 18lbs 60z = 15%

He's long and skinny!

This was a busy month for the little guy. He's babbling like crazy and I think he's starting to use some sign language and wave good-bye. He's pulling up, cruising, and falling in a controlled manner. He loves to clap, click his tongue, explore the cabinets and dishwasher, and take a bath with his brother. He's also starting to become attached to a lovey. He'll crawl over to the crib and reach in for his lion.

His four top, front teeth have just cut through. He also had his first ear infection. That experience was a parental first for Doug and me as well. Until the ear infection and stitches, we had never taken a sick child to the Dr. We had also never filled a prescription for antibiotics. What a blast from the past that was (the prescription...not taking a sick baby to the Dr). It's the same pink stuff that has to be shaken and refrigerated from my youth! It did the trick though. They checked his ears at his 9 month appointment and they looked great.

He was a bit grumpy during the cold/ear infection and the teething but he's back to his incredibly happy self...what a treat!
