9 month stats

We had a very successful trip to the doctor this morning! It really helped that they were not busy today so we got to go right on back! Henderson weighed 21 lbs 9 oz (65th percentile) and I don't remember the exact length measurement but he was in the 80th percentile for height! Dr. says Henderson is right on track and doing great. We will start feeding more table foods now and will switch to whole milk when he is in his 11th month. He did have to get his finger pricked to test his hemoglobin (which was normal) and he didn't even cry. He was way more fascinated with the band aid that they put on his finger.

Hummm, what else can I share? I love reading about other babies on my friends' blogs and find it interesting when they share little details. Let's see... Henderson is still wearing size 3 diapers and 12 month clothes. He continues to be an awesome sleeper and has been since around 12 weeks old (still 7 pm-7 am). He does (very rarely) wake up at some point at night but can almost always get himself back to sleep. He can now get from a lying down position to sitting. This makes for an interesting nap time. He will usually play around in his crib for a good 15 minutes before crashing. We are still working on the sippy cup. He thinks it is something fun to play with and chew on. He loves to stand and hold onto the furniture (he can't pull himself up yet, but is getting close). He continues to think the dog is the funniest thing around. He will still eat pretty much anything that is offered to him. He also continues to be the best thing that has ever happened to his daddy and me! Best baby ever!
