Look who is 9 months old! He isn't quite crawling yet but he will be any day now. It's so much fun to watch him try explore just what he can do. You can almost see that little mind working when he's trying to make something happen!
As you can see, it's getting harder to keep him still enough to get a picture with the duck!
He's starting to be a little less interested in pureed/milled foods and wants to try to eat what we're eating. Before he was born I tried to convince Ed/Alex that we should try Baby Led Weaning (or Baby Led Solids). He wasn't to excited about that so we started out with the mushy stuff. I make his food, so he still often eats what we eat (just a bit modified to make sure he's not getting extra salt, sugar, etc). Now, though, he's having fun trying to eat "big people" food!
He loves avocado! I usually strip him before feeding him but I must have had a lapse of judgement that day. Talk about a mess! The problem with avocado is that it's awfully slippery. I read a tip about cutting it into quarters and leaving the skin on...he can grab it and suck/gnaw/gum his way to a full belly. I may also try dicing it and rolling it in Cheerio dust.
He loves to play on the playground, play with his toys, and pretty much bang on anything that is bang-able! He's still not a fan of sleeping, but hey....he's awfully happy when he's awake!
