I realize that we are very late getting this post up. February was very busy for all of us. Sorry!
Kyle had his 9 month check up on February 7th, and received a clean bill of health. He weighs in at 21.4 pounds (80th percentile) and is 29 inches high (75th percentile). He is now eating more and more table food, and seems to like it much more then baby food. He is beginning to stand on his own for up to 4 or 5 seconds. He does this only when he is not thinking of what he is doing. When he realizes that he is not holding on to anything, he falls to the ground. He has mastered crawling, to the point where mom and dad have to be quick on their feet to keep up. He is especially quick when he knows you are coming after him!
Renee has taken him to the mall to experience the “Play Land” with other infants. Kyle loves to crawl on all the obstacles, and seems to get along with the other children. I believe this activity has given him courage to try to crawl over just about any obstacle. We used to use his toys to partition off an area in our great room, to keep him out of trouble. He is learning how to crawl over, under and around just about anything we have set up to keep him from wandering off. Under close supervision, he is now able to crawl up our stairs! This serves to tire him out at the end of the day, when it is bed time.
Kyle’s top two front teeth are just starting to come in. The bottom two teeth are fully in. Mom enjoys wrestling with him to brush his teeth every night.
We are all looking forward to spring.
