Update on Crue


Since Crue is growing and changing so much I have a lot to post.

Crue has change a lot in the last few months, he is now 9.5 months old! Holy cow!!  He didn't really start gaining lots of weight until he was about 6 months old.  Up to that point he was always very small for his age.  Now he weighs 18 lbs 11 oz.  He is still a little small for his age, but he is getting close to being average.  He has 1 bottom tooth, and I think he is trying to cut the other bottom tooth.  He got his first bottom tooth the end of April.

He doesn't crawl, but he knows how to move around whether its scooting on his bum or rolling and pulling him self.  He has been such a blessing to our family.  Here are some fun facts about Crue from 6 mo. to 9.5 mo:

1. He loves being outside
2. He says Da-Da
3. He reaches out for people to hold him, and when he reaches for me it literally melts my heart.
4. He loves food, we can't eat in front of him or he gets very upset.
5. He loves wearing his hat, and sunglasses (yes he keeps them on 95% of the time).
6. Around 7 mo. he really started loving the bath, now I don't walk away dry from bath time.
7. He has a joking/showoff personality.  If he does something that makes people laugh he will do it again and then stop to make sure your still watching and still think its funny, he learned this trick while he was putting his mouth on the leather couch and blowing and it made a fart noise, he now does that all the time and will make sure he has an audience.
8. He has a very sweet spirit, he can sit very still and be very quiet, people always are so shocked at how good of a baby he is.
9. He scrunches up his shoulders or face when he is embarrassed or acting shy.
10. He snuggles into my chest or neck, and I know that is his way of showing me that he loves me.

We are very blessed to have a very good natured little guy in our house, he loves his momma and his dadda.  I can't imagine our lives any other way.
