9 & 10 months.

For some reason I got it stuck in my head that I had done a 9 month post for Asher, but when I went and looked just now, I realized I never did one. Oops.

He is a mover! He can speed scoot (army crawl) and he's getting faster at actual crawling. He goes all over the house chasing Lily and Levi and sneaking into the bathroom whenever we accidentally leave the door open.

He's pulling up on everything. He can also push things and walk after them.

He's a great sleeper - 1 1/2 hour morning nap, 1 1/2 hour afternoon nap, and 12 hours at night. When he wakes up, he usually just plays in his crib until I go get him. 

He takes his afternoon nap in the pack and play in our room because he and Levi disturb each other when they are trying to nap together. They do fine at night thankfully.

He wears mostly 9 month clothes.

He weighs 18lbs.

His smiles are the sweetest.

Everything goes in his mouth. We have to watch him like a hawk because Lily and Levi have some small toys that Asher will get if we're not careful. I'm constantly digging things out of his mouth...a piece of felt, dog food, left over food from under the table (before I've had the chance to sweep).

Poor child's socks rarely match his outfit. :-/

He is ready to move up to the convertible carseat, and I am certainly ready to not have to lug around the infant seat. We are planning to get Lily a new seat so Asher can have her old one.

He is a mama's boy through and through. He's not a big fan of others holding him (when mama's in view) or mama leaving him.

He has 4 teeth - two on top and two on the bottom.

He eats so much! He still takes 4 bottles each day and eats solids 3 times. He loves to feed himself and is doing great with his pincer grasp and hand/eye coordination. He still eats anything I give him and enjoys gnawing on raw carrots and apples. So far he is still grain-free...except for the piece of animal cracker he snatched from Levi and gobbled up before I could dig it out of his mouth. ha.

Little man is growing up way too fast!
I'm thankful for this little guy!
