Okay, so it's been a little while since I have posted anything. I guess we got a little busy with the baby and the Holidays and stuff. Funny, but not ha-ha funny, Nicholas will be 10 months old at the end of January. As you can see, he loves being bundled up for the cold Minnesota winter.
Hannah took him to his nine month Dr. appt. on January 8th and we got some pretty funny results. He is healthy and happy, so nothing to be afraid of, but we got his size stats. He is 22lbs, 28 inches long; his weight was in the 76%, length was 35% and his head was in the 86%. So we have a short little chunker with a big melon (it must be because of the large brain he is growing, he is not hydrocephalic).
Nicholas has changed so much over the last couple of months . He crawls all over the house and he loves climbing the stairs. We've realized that we need to pack up about half of the house now because he can get into pretty much everything; we were forewarned that this day would come, we just didn't it would develop so quickly, one minute he could barely turn himself over, the next minute he is in a full on crawl and bent on chasing Lily. He loves to take DVD's out of the armoire and take books off of shelves so those must go.
The thing I love the most is that he loves to feed himself now. If we give him some cut up pancake it is fun to watch him try to shove 5 pieces into his mouth. He very much is getting into the "I want to do it myself" phase.
I tell you, it is a great blessing to be able to work from home when I can. I get to experience some of the moments that I would have missed otherwise. It is also great to build a bond with him. His first words were da-da (I repeated it to him enough, it should have been), of course Hannah says this is code for ma-ma, but I'm not buying it, I think that is code for jealous. I know someday he will be a mama's boy, so I'll take what I can, when I can.
c-ya...for now.
