01.23.09 – 9 Months Old – by Emily

Our little baby is growing way too fast! He’s the most precious wonderful baby ever! He is full of smiles! And my favorite time is his bath time. He loves playing in the bubbles! He crawls back and forth, back and forth in the bath tub soooo ecxited!

He got his first two teeth about a week before Christmas, and we learned quickly not to stick our fingers in his mouth! We can’t see any other teeth yet but if his drooling is any indictation, more are just around the corner.

Ryan and I have been busy baby-proofing everything in our house. Micah gets into all the drawers and chews on everything he finds! He’s eating more and more foods now, and so far he likes everything! We had fun with high chair art the other day! I gave him three kinds of pudding on his high chair and let him play in it! It was super cute, and so fun! And messy!

He weighs over 24 pounds already! He’s a big baby, wearing 18-24 month clothes. And, it’s been chilly here so he’s been having to wear the two warm things we have over and over. Yes, warm for us is 60 degrees at night which I know that most of you reading this would love right now, but for us it’s cold!

We have been VERY blessed with family and friends who have sent packages with baby clothes, formula, diaper rash cream, sippy cups, and other baby needs. The Lord has provided abundantly and we are so thankful for everything!

Our baby is such a huge blessing!
