9 months old!


Can't believe it's been five months since I updated this! Oh my gosh how much stuff has changed! 

How old:  9 months
Weight: 15lb13oz at our last checkup.. yes, we know he is small. but our doctor says he's healthy as a horse (and he's still on the growth chart!)
Height: 27 inches
Hair color: blonde
Eyes: bright blue
Favorite food: still mama milk! along with anything he can get his mouth on, including dog food :(

Sleep: So far, so good. Sleeping through the night (most nights) for about 12 hours and taking 2-3 naps a day.
Movement: Crawling everywhere, pulling up, and "cruising"!
Favorite "words": dada ... sad face.
Favorite toy: this bracelet made of bells that we probably shouldn't have bought at Cracker Barrel. and his football
Favorite clothes: sleepers
Diaper size: 2
Clothes size: 9 month.. FINALLY!!
Shoe size: 2
Likes: nursing, being nosy, chewing on everything, and squealing/talking
Dislikes: being too sleepy, having his nose suctioned

Who does he favor? We're hearing about 50/50 now.. which makes mama happy :)

I am SO proud to say that we are 3/4 of the way to our nursing goal. My long-term goal is to nurse Camden until his 1st birthday, but I had mini goals set along the way. However, I honestly get depressed thinking about weaning him now.. no judgment ;) But for real, I am so proud of both of us for getting so close to our goal. The last three months will seem like nothing! I'm beyond thankful to have such a supportive husband who sees my goals and encourages me to do what we feel is best for mom and baby! I couldn't have made it this far without his support and help from LLL and other nursing mamas! It's so fulfilling to set goals and watch yourself meet them!

Camden is SUCH a joy to us! I really do not remember what it was like living without him. I find ourselves constantly talking about our "sweet angel" and that's exactly what he is. We thank God daily for blessing us with the opportunity to be his earthly parents and demonstrate just a small portion of God's love to him!

Hopefully I'll update again before his first birthday.. then again, maybe I won't :/
