Happy 9 months Bennett Parker!We had a great day! Our sweet Bennett turned 9months & we celebrated our 6 year anniversary...my how time flies! These two pics are from his attempt at a 9month photo session with Karen. Of course she got some great shots...which was a miracle considering he cried the majority of the time. Can't wait to see the other great pics she got.This month we have busy busy busy! Bennett had his first ear infection (accompanied by severe stomach issues I won't discuss), followed by two new bottom teeth, said so many new words, stands on his own for up to 20seconds, has really started to play with Ava, DID NOT sleep well the entire month, and continues to be our great eater. He can say: dada, daddy, mama, ADA (ava), siss siss, dog, duck, go, no no (shakes his head at the same time back and forth), eat (he cries it EEEEAAAATTT when he is hungry), moo and tries to repeat any word we say to him. To say he is into everything is an understatement! He is definitely on the move in a big way.

At his 9 month appointment he weighed: 19lbs 14oz (50%) and was 28.5" long (75%). Dr. Kuo said he would have been well over 20lbs if he hadn't of gotten so sick. He is doing great and only had 1 shot.

Here are some fun pictures from our busy busy February.

Loves the water & has no fear when dunking his head underneath.

Loves to play with Ava. He really enjoyed riding in her stroller one morning.Crawling around. And no they aren't leg warmers...they are crawler covers!

This was taken after we got back from pictures with Karen...nice smile!

Our attempt at his 9 month photos. It is almost a comedy routine. You can tell in this picture how long his torso is.

Stop...this is MY Paper!

Sweet Thing!

I AM THE KING OF THE CRIB!

Kind of looks beat up. Woke up with a scratch on his face, busted his lip & chin on the coffee table. But still precious anyway!

I imagine it is quite possible I will be posting before March 28th that he is walking...if not see you at 10 months!
