Happy 9th month birthday Daniel!

Our baby in a word: MOBILE!!!!

I think I find myself thinking each monthly birthday how much progress he has made and how I don’t think I could enjoy him any more than I have the previous month, and then the next month, I am surprised again.

Some fun things:

• Daniel sits well.
• He rolls easily
• he ARMY CRAWLS!!!
• This is the most recent, newest, funnest, and FUNNIEST thing to watch lately. I have a video posted if you wanted to see.
• he gives me a mischievous grin when I turn on his mobile before he goes to sleep
• he LOVES his daddy

• he is showing signs of bashfulness. (he will turn his head to “hide” if a stranger approaches him)
• he is showing partiality to who he wants to hold him and who he doesn’t
• he says: “Mamamamamamamammmmaaaa”
• he eats REALLY well off of his plate: beans, corn, macaroni’s, puffs, cheerios, banana, etc. He is fast and and Humm’s when he is ready for more.
• He likes to swing. (outside in daddy’s garage or at the park)

His favorite things to play with:

• remote control
• my iPod touch
• my cell phone
• keys
• pretty much ANYTHING REAL. . . apparently, he is too cool for baby toys! :- )

Daniel has a very curious and endearing personality! Since he is able to go from room to room without so much of my help, he is staying content longer playing, etc while I am getting things done around the house. I am really enjoying being his mom. He lights up my day!!
