I can't believe Beckem's already 9 months! His two top teeth are descending nicely and he doesn't seem to be in as much pain as he was. I haven't had to give him any Tylenol or Motrin in 2 weeks. Beckem is the happiest little baby! He loves to laugh and "dance". His favorite toys have become kitchen items...wooden spoons, an ice cream scoop, and a spatula. I have been blending up our dinners more and more to feed to him and he really enjoys his "big boy" food. His favorite snacks are Joes Os (Trader Joes Cheerios) and strawberries.
Here he is... all 18 lbs 6 oz!
This one is my favorite. He looks so good in hats!

The past week...

Pain, agony, sleepless nights, discomfort...and this is all I have to show for it?
Ummm, hello? Anyone there?
There you are! Hello! Oh, by the way, you might want to lower the crib now...

I make this look good...

I turned 8 months old the day after Christmas. I better start checking for gray hairs!

December in a nutshell:

I got to open lots of fun presents!
I got to play with my cousin Delaney who is so cool. She's 6 months older and can run circles around me!
I discovered my friend in the mirror. "Hello in there!"
I got my first teeth! The bottom 2 came first and I'm working on my top 2. Ouchie!
Christmas at Grandma and Grandpa's house. It was exhausting and loud, but fun!
