On May 6th Carter had his 9 month check and no shots this time. He did so well at the doctor's office. He loves the paper on the examine table! He just sits there and crumples it up. The doc said he was healthy and just to continue what we were doing. His stats were:

Weight: 20.7 lbs (53th%)
Height: 28.5 in (59th%)
Head Circ: 18 in (63%)

And another stat BMI is 17.9...it has slowly increased each appointment...he is a little chunk. I always call Carter, my biggest boy, but now I call him my medium sized boy. He was in the 80th percentile on his height for all his previous appointments, but now he has slowed down to be right in the middle. What a perfect little guy.

Carter is Nine Months Old

Look at my big teeth!

Someone looks suspicious.

Carter turned 9 months on April 27th. This past few weeks have been very busy. On April 19th I had surgery to remove my gall bladder. The hardest thing was not being able to pick up Carter for a couple of weeks. I am now fully recovered and feeling better. Carter did great with everything and him and daddy had some serious bonding time. He just keeps changing every week. His hair is getting curly and he is starting to look older with 6 of his baby teeth in. He can cruise from one thing to another now, so close to walking. He differentiates between Clay and I, which is so neat. He is starting to really hate the diaper changes. You can't hold him down for anything because he is always on the go!! Carter is so curious of everything. It is awesome to watch him learn and figure out new things. This past 9 months has went by too fast!
