This last month Eli decided he wanted to be a pill at bedtime. He used to be the best baby at bedtime always going down without a fuss. Something changed. He started screaming his little head off. We have no idea why this started. So I swaddled him one night and bam he went right down. But apparently its a risk to swaddle a 9 month old since they can roll onto their tummies and would possibly have trapped arms so we unswaddle him before we go to bed. He is doing much better.
His personality has exploded this past month. He laughs a ton, is basically running in his walker, makes all sorts of babble sounds and is generally happy. He will run his walker hard into anything and start giggling so hard. Hysterical. He can army crawl very well and is trying so so hard to stay on his knees to crawl but the wood floors make it a bit tricky. He'll be there soon. The stroller is still one of his favorite things and he seems to be tolerating car rides better. His two bottom teeth came in a few days before Christmas. I love seeing them when he laughs; they are so cute.
Stats: This kid has still not doubled his birthweight. How can a baby be almost 10 lbs at birth and so small now? He rang in at 18lbs 8oz today. 15th percentile. Height and head circumference were both in the 75th percentile. He is perfectly healthy just a small guy.
His energy is such that its impossible to get his picture laying down next to Mickey. So here are a few pics of him playing with Mickey instead.
