(8m 25d)
I can't believe noah is almost 9 months old! He says mamma, dadda and baba (bottle).
Noah is just about weaned from the breast, sadly to say. He'll probably nurse one more week and will be done. 9 months has been wonderful and I am delighted that I have been able to give him breast milk. It has been such a special time and I will greatly miss it. But, he is so active and always wants to get down and play.. there are times he actually shakes his head no at me when I go to nurse him! What a kid!
He still has no teeth.. I guess Joe was a late teether, too, according to his mom.
Noah can get up on all 4's and rock back and forth, but no crawling has happened yet. He can pull himself up on his boucer to get the buckle and on the outside of his exersaucer, two unsafe things!
He loves the dogs, and laughs so hard when they bark and play!
We started giving Noah different food textures, like small chuncks of banana, cottage cheese and coarsely ground steamed broccoli. We see the pedi on monday, and will ask if he can have cheerios and the like, since he has no teeth.

3rd cold
(8m 15d)
Today Noah went from a sitting up position down to the floor, onto his belly. This is a big step for him and he did it perposefully, not falling down. And also today, he attempted to feed himself with a spoon! He actually did very well. He has great aim and coordination! It was all an accident, I gave him a baby spoon to play with while I was feeding him breakfast, because he kept trying to grab his spoon. He just started sticking the play spoon into his mouth! So I would dip it into his food and he'd feed himself! He was a huge mess, but who cares? He was having fun!
He has his 3rd cold sadly...He got it from the nursery at church. What can you do? At least he is in play groups and interacting with other children, and unfortunately, those are the consequences!

great grandma
(8m 6d)
I can't believe how fast he is growing! His great grandmother is up from Florida and he has been seeing her a lot. She loves him, and says, "Give me my pumpkin!" every time she sees him.
Noah is saying "Dadda" now, started about 2 weeks ago.
He might be teething now finally. He is waking up at night and not taking much of a bottle during the day. He only nurses well in the morning.
We offered him a sippy cup on his 8 month bday. He mostly just plays with it, banging it around.
We are sad to be closing the pool already, especially since noah loved it so much. maybe I'll take him to the ymca this winter to swim.
No real signs of crawling yet. He'll lay on his belly and put his butt up in the air or get on his knees for a few seconds.
He had his consultation today at the pediatric urologists for his circ. It will be done later this year.
