Strummer's First Tooth


Strummer finally has a white thing in his mouth! A few weeks ago (Well, August 13th) we were visiting our pals Holly and Brayden....and Sara was there too! Well - the little guy was being unusually cranky...and hungry and I couldn't figure out why! All of a sudden Holly said - Manda, he has a tooth!!! Well that explains it! It must have just popped up b/c I hadn't seen any signs of a tooth b/f that day! Thanks for spotting it Holly!

I finally grabbed a good shot last week!

Walking and Climbing

2 for the price of 1!

Here's a video of Strummer outside. He first walked his hippo up the sidewalk to the front steps. Then proceeded to climb up the steps to the door. We have a VERY active 9 month old! :P

9 Months!

Waiting for Dr. Parsons



Still Waiting - Being on the table wasn't working to swell :P



Strummer found the lego table and drawers full of toys



After his appointment - he LOVES to climb!



Strummer had his 9 month check up last week. He has stopped his major growth spurting - actually it stopped after his 4-month check-up. So now he's a more 'average' height I guess. He is less than average weight. Dr. Parsons says it's b/c he is more active than the average 9 month old, so we just need to offer him food even more often than what we already do! hee-hee-hee!
Other than that, he's perfectly healthy! Developing like he should be and she thought it won't be to long b/f he starts walking! So we'll keep an eye out for that! STILL no teeth - however his doctor said she's not to concerned unless he's like 14 months. So we have awhile :P. He'll just be our loveable, adorable toothless baby. PLUS - no shots for this appointment! He will be getting quite a few at his 12 month. The regular shots he's scheduled to receive, plus the flu shot and the H1N1 shot. Luckily he takes his shots 'like a man'. In other words, he really doesn't cry or fuss! He's so brave!

His new stats are:
Height: 28-1/2 inches
Weight: 17 lbs - 8 oz.

So he grew almost an inch in 3 months, but only gained 8 oz.

He keeps changing everyday! I can't believe how fast our little guy is growing up!
