It is becoming more and more evident to me that time waits for no one. You continue to grow and change right before my eyes. At your 9 month check up you weighed 22 pounds and were 29 1/2 inches long :) You have not started walking on your own but I know that it is coming soon. You will hold onto the coffee table and end tables to get around. While doing this you like to hold onto things - usually you will have your orange little basketballs in your hands and you refuse to let them go. Your laugh is contagious. I really feel that you are going to have the best sense of humor. You have been the best little trooper while I am getting through my knee dislocation. I know the confusion of me not being able to pick you up or carry you has caused you concern. Someday you will understand baby boy. You can crawl like you are in a race. You get around like it is not a big deal at all. I personally have a feeling that you are a genius level IQ but I may be partial. I often watch you when a situation arises and you have to figure it out and I am amazed at how you are able to figure it out. I can see the gears in your brain turning. While I enjoy this at the same time it causes me concern. When we lay a chair down to keep you from going in the kitchen and you find the smallest crack or just outright move the chair - I think - We are going to have our hands full. You baby boy are the joy of our lives. Now, if we can just get you through the oh so ugly teething stage!!! Love you sweet boy!
Love you always,
