Baby Update - 9 months old

Baby Ben is 9 months old. I can't believe it. I haven't done an update in a few months but know that at this age I officially told him he needs to stop growing. Part of that is because he has four older siblings and I see what happens when kids get bigger and have opinions and learn how to disobey. 😉

Ben, at 9 months you:

Weigh 21 lbs, 3 oz and are 27.75

Inches long (75th% for weight and 25th% for height 

Wear 12 month clothes

Are on a 4 hour schedule and finally dropped your dream feed, so 4 bottles a day! 

Go to bed early and sleep 13 hours!!

Moved out of Mom and Dad's room and have your own room (okay it's the closet of the guest room but it's a big closet)

Moved from your infant carrier to a convertible car seat

Have one tooth

Are so very drooly. So so so slobbery

Say "mamamama"

Army crawl and also starting to pull up and plank 

Prefer playing with wrappers, cords, and shoes than a big box of toys

Are so so so loved by your family. Oh my. You are called "The Captain," "Prince," "Big Benny," and "Cutie Mootie" by your siblings 

Want to be entertained most of the time. How dare someone walk past you and keep going!

Eat three meals a day and like everything 

Went to Disney for the first time and somehow only got on one ride and it was the Haunted Mansion (mom of the year)

Here are some Ben pics! Because I can't get enough of snapping away!
