On Thanksgiving Day, November 25, Carter turned 9 months old! WOW. Hard to believe. (He weighs 22 lbs 4 ounces and is 28 1/4 inches tall). He has had a busy month. Along with getting his first 2 teeth (by the way, the 3rd looks to be soon making its appearance), he is crawling all over the place, pulling up to standing on anything and everything he can, and walking holding onto furniture. I fear real walking is coming very soon! Let's just say he is BUSY. Into EVERYTHING.
Clearly he is still very vocal. He says "mama," "dada," "baba," and considering he will mimmick ANY sound or word you say, we have gotten him to say "apple" and "duck." Random, I know. And the video below is just a little taste of one of his hilarious laughs. Yes, he has SEVERAL.
He is still eating like a champ. He will be trying Stage 3 foods and more and more table foods during the next month. And (sorry to say), he now loves real bananas. But no fear, those of you who love the banana video. People are already begging me to try more and more new foods so we can try and get priceless video # 2, to go along with "Bananas make me twitch!" :)
His first Thanksgiving was awesome. On Wednesday, we got to spend the day with Tim's side of the family. Carter got to see all his cousins & have a fun-filled day at Uncle Cole's house. And on Thursday, we make another trip to Houston to spend time with my side of the family. Carter got to play with Cousin Alex, they had so much fun! AND we even went to the Old Time Christmas Tree Farm, where we got to pick and cut down our very own Christmas Tree for Gigi's house! So fun!
