Nine month old update!

So, it has been a long time since we did an update on Peter, but that doesn't mean that he isn't growing and progressing by the minute!

Last week we had his nine month old doctor's visit, where he was measured - 27 inches long (76%), 16 pounds (13%), and a 14 inch head (30%). So, he is tall, skinny and has a slightly small head - but his growth is normal and the doctor said he looked great. She also said that he was one of the most active and talkative babies she had ever seen at his age (could possibly be a reflection of his mother?).

Other developments include:


-Started crawling

-Now has 8 teeth growing in

-Still sleeping 11-12 hours a night with two 2 hour naps during the day


-Sits up on his own

-Claps

-Says "Mama," "Dada," "Kitty Kat," and "All Done"


-Uses sign language to say "all done"

-Started eating chunky foods (not just pureed baby food)

Additionally, he has become a wonderful snuggler and sometimes lays his head on my belly when he is tired. We will have to get a picture of that soon, because it is about the cutest thing I have ever seen.


That is all for now, but I am sure we will have a walking update soon!
