Cael turned 9 months old on December 18th. He had his 9 month check-up the day before that and weighed 19 lbs. 3 oz. and was 29 inches tall. That was about 28th percentile in weight and 77th in height. He seemed a lot bigger than Ayden was at that age, but I went back and looked and Ayden was 1/2 pound and 1/2 inch smaller at that age. Not too much of a difference. Cael got his first tooth right around 9 months (which I didn't know until the doctor pointed it out at his appointment) and he just got his second one a few days ago. He's not a cranky teether at all (Ayden was the same way), but likes to chew on everything. He started pulling himself up at about 8 1/2 months and cruising shortly after that. He has stood up on his own a few times already, too! He also now waves bye-bye and has started biting, which I'm not a fan of because it is usually me he bites! He's still an incredibly happy and easy-going baby and he gets lots of attention wherever we go because he's always happy and smiling. He now loves to crawl on me or Ayden when we sit on the floor and he will come up to me and suck on my chin or give Ayden slobbery kisses all over. He thinks it's hilarious. He's also super-curious and seems to get into or wants to play with things he shouldn't. It's hard to believe he's not going to be a baby for much longer and is almost a toddler! In a few months we will be celebrating his first birthday!
I love this picture because it really shows what his personality is like...
