Cohen - 9 months

Well, it's official.  You're 9 months old which means I should be back to my pre-pregnancy weight you have been here longer than you were in Mommy's belly.  Here's a glimpse of what you're up to these days!

You are scooting/crawling everywhere.  You are still not crawling the "technical" way, and instead you do it your own way.  The best analogy I've heard was that you look like a fish out of water when you're crawling... and it's so true!  I love it... it just never gets old.

You have 5 teeth!  Praise the Lord teething hasn't been near as bad of an issue as it was with your brother.  For the most part I don't even realize you're getting a new tooth in because it doesn't hardly seem to bother you... and for that I am extremely thankful!

You pull yourself up and will stand for an extended period of time while holding on to something.  I am afraid walking is in our near future.

You decided recently that you absolutely hate Momma feeding you pureed food, so all of your food is now being given to you in small pieces, so that you can do it yourself.  Apparently you're very independent.  Who did you get that from?

You lift your arms to reach for us, which has resulted in lots of "awww!!!'s"

You are constantly on the go... rolling, jumping, or flinging out of our arms.

We love you so much little guy!

PS, Mommy got behind and didn't do your 7 or 8 month recap, so here's your pictures anyway for comparison sake!
