9 months...

Stats:
23 lbs. (85%)
30.25 inches (95%)

Mr. Will is super clingy this month and dealing with separation anxiety...especially from Mom. It sure provides good snuggles though! He is enamored with motorcycles, Jackson and his teeth are hurting. He got 2 new top teeth this month and hopefully, we will have some new ones soon.

Our 8 month Will!

We have had another wonderful month with Will. Sadly, he had his first virus this month and then got a cold or two. So, he was sick most of the month and wanted to sleep in mom's bed. Thus, we didn't get much sleep in September. We did get plenty of good play time at home and Will is into EVERYTHING! Drawers, cabinets, closets, baskets, bins, all of Jackson's toys...we had to hurry and baby proof. This month also brought many bumps on the head as he is pulling up and trying to stand on his own. He is definitely my little explorer and keeps me on my toes. It can be exhausting at times, but the trade off is the wonderfulness of getting to watch him learn as he plays and explores pretty much everything!

Will has 4 words: "Hi, Mama, Uh-oh & Dada". He knows the commands, "Pat and Shake". He also understands no and is starting to respond to it...sometimes. :) My favorite accomplishments this month are that Will can clap and wave! It is too too cute.
Will is still nursing every 3 hours. I think he is concerned he is going to lose some of those leg rolls if he finally goes to every 4 hours. His favorite foods are carrots and cheerios and anything we are eating. He will literally pull my fork out of my mouth and try to put it in his if I am holding him while eating. He tolerates avocados, tomatoes and peas, yet dislikes fruit. We've tried bananas, apples and pears... all no go!
William loves his bath and tries to repeat sounds we make. He also has the cutest tractor sound you have ever heard, "Brrrmmm"!
At most of his doctor sick visits, he weighed 23.5 lbs. I will post 9 mo. check-up length and weight next month.
