Happy 9 Months!

I haven't posted a lot about Jaxon lately.  He is growing like a little weed though.  He is currently 9 1/2 months and he weighed 22 lbs, 12 ozs and was 29 3/4 inches at his 9 month appointment.  I am amazed at what he is doing at such a young age.  I guess it has a lot to do with all of the experience he is getting with his older brothers and sister.  He started sitting up at 6 months, crawling at 7 months, cruising the furniture at 8 months, and is into everything that his brothers and sister are doing.  He loves table food and sweet tea, but we are careful to make sure he gets his Nutramigen formula and stage 3 baby food (not much longer, though)!   He doesn't like tart or bitter foods like peaches.  He is trying to use a sippy cup.  He has 7 teeth and cutting more.  He has blue eyes with little brown specks in them just like Eastan and his hair is changing daily.  He is wearing 12-18 months clothes and size 3 shoes (if we can get him to wear them)!  He is sitting stationary in a size 4 diaper.

Sometimes, we catch him looking at books and babbling.  I hope he likes to read.  I read to him and sing to him a lot.  He likes to be busy and loves to listen to the singing at church.  He understands some sign language and clicks his tongue.  He loves pat-a cake and ride a little horsey....SO precious.  Thankful that God allowed me to mother one more.  It won't be long now and this baby will be one and we will wonder where the time has gone.  Just thankful and grateful that God saw fit to bless me with Jaxon.
