Happy 9 months to our sweet little man. He really is such a joy and quite the charmer. When he flashes his toothless grin even people who aren't his mama melt.
He is starting to get into everything. He likes to bang, hit, push, pull anything within his reach. I don't know if it is a boy/girl difference by Josie didn't seem nearly as rough with toys or play with them quite as aggressively.
He stands now for long periods of time with the activity table and even can balance by himself for a few seconds. Crawling is right around the corner, I think. But I have often wondered if he will walk first. He seems more interested in that than crawling at this point.
I kept thinking that Benjamin seemed so much bigger than Josie at this age. Well here are there stats at their 9 month appointments:
Length --- Josie - 29" (90%) Benjamin - 29"(75%)
Weight ---Josie- 19.1 (60%) Benjamin- 19.11 (36%)
Head ---Josie - 44.8 cm (80%) Benjamin - 45cm (40%)
Amazingly, they were almost the exact same size!
To celebrate his 9 month birthday we took our very familiar walk down to Alki to the Whale Tail Park and then to Pegasus.
