Milestones!

Yipes, I've been slacking lately...and at such a crucial time! Here are just a few of Brett's big milestones during the month of September:

GROWING! After Brett's 9-month check-up today, we've learned that he is in the 76th, 77th, and 96th percentiles for weight, height, and head size, respectively. Yeah, he's got a lot of brains. He is 22 lbs, 2.5 oz, 2 feet 5 inches high, and his big ol' head is 18.75 inches around. What a beefcake!

CRAWLING! He motors all over the place nowadays. Here is a progression of photos (sorry, the video was too big):







A TOOTH! Praise the Lord, it finally came through:



(yep, that's a pea in there too)


STANDING! He can pull himself up from a sitting position, and as of today, he can even do it from lying facedown. What a beefcake! Sorry, no photos of this yet...I'm still kinda paranoid and have to be hovering around him in case he decides to tip over.


PLAYING! Brett has learned a new appreciation for water - in the form of a water fight after dinner. He just LOVES being splashed in the face, go figure. It's rather therapeutic for mommy too, if he's given her a particularly difficult day. Heeheee :) This is the greatest video. Brace yourself:

What a great idea - you can clean the highchair AND the baby at the same time!! He's really going to miss his pool come winter :)
