Nathan, 9 months

Nathan, 9 months

It’s been a glorious nine months with our Nathan.  He is happy, healthy and full of energy!  He has four teeth, more hair everyday – dark and straight, and he crawls at lightening speed. Nathan is also pulling up and cruising.  I believe he’ll walk by his first birthday.  His laughter is contagious and when he smiles, his eyes light up.  

He says “Ama” which I take to mean “Mama”, and he just started saying “Dada”.  Tim seems to think he’s just making sounds;  that he doesn’t really know what he’s saying, but I disagree.

He just had his 9 month appointment and while he didn’t appreciate the heel prick, he checked out healthy and with a good set of lungs on him.  Geesh – that boy can cry!  He is 20 lbs. 1 oz. (50th percentile) and 30 inches long (95th percentile).

Nathan's first time on the beach

Nathan’s first time on the beach

We had our first trip to Florida in January and that was almost regrettable as it  has taken us this long to get back to sleeping through the night.  He never slept well in Florida, but for my family to see him . . . I suppose it was worth it.  Please pray for us as we are to fly to Aruba in May.  I’m praying a lot about that one.
