Nine Month Update

Michael is three quarters of the way through his first year of life! We went to the doctor for his nine month well visit. He weighs 25 lbs and 4 oz and he is 29 inches long. The nurse's comment in his doctor book was "Miniature Linebacker for the Pittsburgh Steelers." Needless to say, Dad wasn't very happy with that comment. Fortunately, there were no shots at this visit.

He is still not crawling or moving around (although he does do the upside down scoot). He is just content with us moving him around. He does roll around a lot and no longer minds being on his tummy. He has been going to day care now for two weeks since Mom went back to work. He is known there as "The Happy Baby" as he is always smiling or laughing. Apparently, it is much more entertaining there then it is at home with Mom and Dad.
