My goodness do I love this kid! Is it because he's a boy? My last? I don't know and I don't really care, I just really love him :) and so does the rest of his family members!
He got and almost conquered his first chest cold. Never fun when any of your babies are sick, but especially when they're under one. I always get nervous when it involves breathing, but he did great and still slept like a champ for the most part.
To make matters worse, he's also in the process of popping some top teeth. Poor kiddo :(
He had his 9 month well-visit today. Another blessing of a healthy kiddo!
I had to call in back-up for this months photos, as he's a busy guy, even when he wasn't feeling well! Thanks to Daddy for adding the sillies so I could make sure he didn't climb off the chair and get the picture taken.
Squirrel!
How's this pose, mom?
Hey, is that squirrel back?
He sleeps 12-14hrs at night, with bedtime around 615pm. He takes two naps a day ranging from an hour to 3 hours. Happy Mama!
Still army/worm crawl, but boy can he cruise. He can also tell you where all of the plug ins, cords and lamps are, and if his sisters left anything interesting on the floor
He's down to only nursing 4 sessions, can't believe there's only 3 months of this bond left. It's definitely bittersweet, as it keeps me tied down and to a schedule, but man, am I so thankful to have been able to provide that for all of my babies!
He loves Big Boy food, especially whole crackers that he can eat like his sisters. He can chug his sippy cup of water and soon I'll be having him taste some whole milk to prep for that transition.
He could eat all table food if life wasn't so crazy with 4. Sometimes he's ready for dinner at 4:30 and our dinner might not be all the way ready, so it's easiest to have one of his sisters feed him. He usually doesn't mind.
He loves to go from crawling to sitting and he loves to practice his downward dog before falling asleep at bed or nap. If I stand him with a toy he can hang on, but he's not quite pulling himself up yet.
He says Ma-Ma, Da-Da and Ga-Ga, can wave, clap and what sounds like Hiiiiiiii. He knows how to talk to get attention and he knows how to flirt. He knows when his mama leaves the room, but isn't NEARLY as attached as his sisters were. He shakes with excitement when his Daddy gets home and giggles with glee when his sisters get off the bus, and no one can get him to giggle quite like Emma.

He's quite the celeb around this house.
Thank you thank you thank you Mason for all that you are to our little family, we love you so very much and thank God that He blessed us with you!
A new sign in his room that Mom found at Hobby Lobby!
Excited to celebrate his many 1st with the holidays quickly approaching!
So fly!
Extra Thankful & Grateful for our health, when we're quickly reminded how blessed we are that the most of our concerns are little colds and viruses!
Happy 9 months, Sweet Guy! We love you so very much!
