9 Months 9 Months 9 Months!

This guy is 9 months.

How do babies learn so much in such a short amount of time? I wish I recorded more of what Logan was doing at what stage prior to the 8 month mark but when I noticed that I didn't take note much I decided that I would do this more. So this is all about Mr. Logan's amazing baby accomplishments.

This guy loves to babble Dadada (the most... this is #1), but will also do Mamama and something that sounds somewhat like "geek". Perhaps he already has a read on his parents. He also does "Ya" and "Hi".. intentional? we like to think so...

Just before the 9 month mark he also started the wave. I noted for the first time that it was intentional when we were at a friends place and there were construction workers in the backyard and he waved at them!

At 6 months Logan got his bottom 2 chompers and it took another couple months until the next ones came through... Logan likes to spice things up in life... he didn't get the centre top two, but the ones beside the centre. I took this picture end of May so they are in much more now but getting a picture of teeth is pretty much impossible! The top centre ones are just starting to break through now... 9 months and a week!

All these new teeth will help with all the new chunky solids hes been having... cheerios (his favourite), toast, muffins, pasta.. hes tried all these! Still working on the pasta taste buds...

Logan's been sitting up for a few months now... but having the stability to stay in the shopping cart is a new thing! He is now officially a  shopping cart baby which makes grocery shopping much easier (this is Canadian tire though!). We were the people with the stroller and cart before.

Oh standing? No big deal for this guy... He can hold on to his crib, the edge of the bed, the playpen and stay stable for over 5 minutes. Its just the moving the feet part he has to work on... He gets so proud of himself when he can do new things!

He is on the verge of crawling now.. he gets on his hands and knees but goes backward. Even if he tries really hard to go forward. He's got the motion of going from on his tummy back to sitting from all his crawling tries too! He hasn't figured out yet how to get up from the laying on his back position yet which is great for sleeping. He's always in the same spot!

He also eats 3 meals plus at least 2 snacks a day. Like a beast!! He loves his food.

And when hes really excited he opens his mouth wide! This is also how he gives kisses!

We love our big man.
