SHAWN IS 9 MONTHS OLD!

I can't even begin to think how 9 months have gone by so quickly in this child's life. I can remember every month so vividly and what he's accomplished in so little time that it boggles the mind to think that time can move so fast. What's new in his life?

. his 4th tooth is coming in (now two on top)

. he crawls with a vengence

. he's pulling himself up all the time

. he has a small cold right now (his FIRST!)

. he wears a size 4 shoe but not "using" them yet

. he's wearing 9-12 months clothes

. he sleeps from 8pm to 7:30am (every day)

. he loves his vegetables (even the green ones)

. he poops like most of us would love to poop

(gross but true)

. he only cries when he's tired and then it's off to bed

. he loves Little Einsteins on the Disney Channel more than anything

. he's discovered the letters "m", "n", "g" and "d"

(so we hear mama, nana, gaga, and dada)

We can enter a room and smile at him, and when he smiles back, well, it's a feeling that fills you up and you never want to let it go.
