Lawson at 9 months

Since we are updating statistics around here, I'll give a little Lawson update. At his 9 month check-up a couple weeks ago:

Height: 30 in (90-95%)
Weight: 22 lbs 9.5 oz (75-90%)
Head Circumference: 18 1/4 in (75%)

He's still a big fellow and happy and healthy! He is quite proficient at his army crawl slither across the floor. No official crawling yet--could be due to his um, how do I say it...rather large tummy?! But he is mobile and can get most anywhere he wants by way of his tummy. I've seriously contemplated putting a Swiffer sweeper cloth on his tummy and having him clean my hardwood floors as he plays.

He is getting pretty good at standing holding on to the couch or other things. He likes to tap and bang with his hands while he is standing. Cheerios and puffs are his new favorite items to eat and he can now feed them to himself which is awesome. I often hear him babbling, talking, or singing sweet baby syllables to himself like: mamama, bababa, ooo, ahhh. He is often quite content to explore around and discover new things keeping himself entertained.

Here's a video of him blowing some serious raspberries: video


We sometimes refer to Lawson as Law-dawg and Nathan as Nate-dawg, but lately Nathan has started calling Lawson Law-dawg/Law-Man a lot and it cracks me up. Nathan loves going to greet Lawson in the morning and they are starting to really become great friends. Looking forward to more brother memories.

Lawson has now officially outgrown his infant seat, so we're shopping for the next upgrade in car seats to accommodate our growing boy...love you Law-Man!

I lovedd the video and oh how I would like to enjoy some of those rasberries. His stats make me so aware how fast he is growing up. I love you and miss you. Mama Sug
