Let the baby proofing begin!

Yesterday Liam turned 9 months.Writing this leaves me in shock. 9 months is a pregnancy time frame.  9 months is an academic school year.  9 months is longer then some celebrity marriages!   I have literally watch time fly as he turned from the infant I brought home in April to the little boy who always wears a smile on his face.

In his 9 months he has learned to crawl and climb onto EVERYTHING, even up stairs.  He puts EVERYTHING he comes across on his little adventures into his mouth.  He has started to walk around furniture and every once in a while, he will forget what he is doing and stand with no assistance. Liam LOVES his sister and thinks they are the same age.  He can wrestle with the best of them and has a bite to go with it.  He has discovered the joys of food, and this lazy mom feeds him most of the things we are eating.  Who needs baby food?  Not us.  He has started babbling Dada, Mama, Baba and will shake his head "no" if we ask for another word (Oh Lord, please don't let me have another highly strong willed child). Liam and Amelia have also started sharing a room.  It was an easier transition then I anticipated, and both have handled it well. He is the perfect 50% in head (18), weight (19) and height (28).

Best of all.....he is a total Mama's boy.
