Nine months old

Loves taking baths!

His first official haircut! We just trimmed around the ears and back.

Such a stud!
Love his hair. It sticks up all by itself. Even when I comb it down and put gel in it, it goes right back up.





Holden is already nine months old. Time sure does fly when you have more then one. He is the best little boy and we are so glad he is in our family. Here are some little things about our little guy:

  • Loves to smile. He gives big smiles to everyone all day long!
  • Loves to cuddle. He gives the best cuddles especially when he wakes up in the morning. I love it!
  • Loves to eat. He loves his bottles, baby food, table food, basically any food he can get his hands on.
  • Loves to be on the move. He has been crawling for a couple of months now, he also pulls up on everything and walks holding onto things. He also figured out how to go up the stairs. Definitely doesn't want to waste anytime getting mobile.
  • Loves his sister. She is still the only one that can get him laughing really hard. He also loves to give her hugs and kisses.
  • Loves his mommy. He is still a mommy's boy, which I will enjoy while it lasts.
  • Loves his daddy. He is looking more and more like Zach the bigger he gets. They are going to be the best of buds.
  • Hates to get dressed and have his diaper changed.
  • Babbles alot. His favorite word right now is dada.
  • Has 6 teeth. 4 on top and 2 on the bottom.

We took him to his nine month appointment yesterday. He weighs in at 17 lbs. 14 oz (10%) and his height is 28 in. (50%). He also has low iron so we have to keep him on iron-fortified formula for at least the next 3 months. Then we will get it retested to see if he can go to milk. He also has his first ear infection, but other than that he is healthy boy. He is such a joy to our family and we love him so much!
