Wordless Wednesday (Anniversary Edition)

9 Month Checkup

Yesterday we took Wyatt to see Dr. Gray for his 9 month checkup. He weighs just shy of 20 pounds and measures just over 28 inches in height, both of which are in the average range for babies his age. He's meeting all his developmental milestones with crawling, pulling up and babbling. Dr. Gray said to continue giving him soft finger foods to help him develop his self-feeding skills, and much to Daddy's excitement, she said we can slowly start introducing meats into Wyatt's diet. Although Daddy would love to see his boy devour a big juicy steak, he'll have to wait awhile for that; we're going to start off with pureed chicken instead. All in all, we were glad to hear that Wyatt is healthy and developing properly. That's what matters most!

In other matters, some of you asked how we got Wyatt to make that funny face for the last Wordless Wednesday post. Well, he kind of came up with that one all on his own. Mommy was taking some pictures of him playing on the floor and she lowered the camera to his level, snapped the pic, and was pleasantly surprise by the hilarious result. Looks like our boy is just a naturally expressive little ham. Maybe he'll take after Mommy and do theatre in school. Hmmm....


Have a great Friday!

Wyatt in the News

Yesterday Wyatt and Mommy went to storytime at the Middletown Public Library. We enjoyed watching a puppet show of The Very Hungry Caterpillar and singing interactive songs. Most of all, we enjoyed seeing Cousin Amelia (Millie) and her Gram at storytime! Millie is such a cutie, and she has the most gorgeous bright eyes.

We were all surprised to see a photographer from the Middletown Journal at storytime. He took some great photos and posted them on the newspaper's website. You can check them out here: http://projects.middletownjournal.com/cache/galleries/Living/General%20Living/070609laptime/. Enjoy!

From Myrtle Beach with Love

Lucky Ducky Nana spent the past week in Myrtle Beach soaking up the sun and dipping her feet in the ocean. Yesterday she sent this birthday greeting to Wyatt. In case you can't see it very well, it says, "Wyatt, Happy Birthday, 9 Months". Thank you, Nana!

Nine Months

Yes, he's adorable. Yes, he's 3/4 of the way to his first birthday. Yes, he's crawling out of a cardboard box. Who needs fancy schmancy toys anyway?

Can you tell it's getting harder and harder to get him to pose next to his sign?

Happy Nine Months, little one! Mommy and Daddy love you very much!
