9 Months

Tate is 9 months old today!  How did another month pass by so quickly?

Your favorite toys are your books, mailbox toy, and your stand and play table.  Since you have learned to crawl you are more interested in everything in the house than your toys.  You like to pull up on everything and are getting more and more bruises all over your body.  You are starting to not be scared each time you fall down.  You have 3 teeth and appear to be close to getting a few more.  You are still not sleeping well at all.  You will only go to sleep if you are rocked.  If we put you to bed awake, you just stand or sit in your crib and CRY!  You will sleep a few hours in your crib and then you spend the rest of the night in the recliner.  You still have a stuffy nose so that might be part of the problem.  You usally sleep for 1.5-2 hours in the morning and an hour in the afternoon.  You are not eating well.  Somedays you will eat baby food and somedays you will not.  You have been on an oatmeal kick lately.  You cannot tolerate any sort of textured foods.  Even applesauce will make you gag and you used to eat it all of the time.  You do like to feed yourself but you are pretty picky about what you eat.  I am worried you are behind on speech because you are more interested in making sound effects than making consonant sounds.  The "da-da" only comes out once in a blue moon.  You are mostly wearing 12 month clothes although you do wear a few 18 month things.  You are still in size 4 diapers.  You are such a fun boy and are full of smiles!  Your little naked journey to the tub is the best part of each day!  You hop with excitement!
