Carson: 9 Months

Where oh where is the time going. Carson turned 9 months on Saturday and him and mommy celebrated by taking some pictures while daddy was playing in the mountains.

It seems like Carson changes by the week! We how have 2 bottom teeth and he is teething again like crazy...there is drool everywhere!! He has also adapted a new way of crawling. So funny. In the past week he has started babbling constants. We can pick out "baba" very well and he has even started saying "muh muh" here and there. Soon enough I'm sure he'll be talking our ears off. He also has started to show (what I think) are some signs of separation anxiety. He used to crawl all over the place and make you chase him, and now he's starting to crawl towards you, sit down and reach his arms up for you to hold him. He still let me drop him off in the church nursery but when I came to pick him up he instantly crawled right to me. Another thing Carson loves now is his bath time. He splashes like a crazy man and doesn't seem quite ready for bath time to end.

We are working more and more with finger foods and he does good with peas, chunks of ground turkey and pasta bits. His favorite thing to eat seems to be his oatmeal with fruit and eggs with avocado. And we are happy to say he is still gaining like a champ and the doc said he is up to the 25th percentile now. Our check-up went great, the doctor had no concerns and said he is doing fabulous with his mile stones.
