Cole: 9 Months!

C. R. A. Z. Y.

These 9 months have flown by compared to the previous 9 months...!!! Madness!

Cole is so big.  His next check up is in a week, but I estimate 20+ lbs and super long.  Like his "da-da-da-da."

Our little man accomplished a lot this month.  He got his first teeth.  Two on the top! Looks like a little beaver. Two more are breaking through on the bottom.  It looks painful to me, but he is handling it pretty well.

Cole started saying "ma-ma," he loves to rub noses and play patty-cake, he is a rolling fool, especially in his crib, he LOVES the pool and all things water, has recently started walking with our help, and standing holding on to things! Cole also loves to fake read. He holds the book and whispers... it's hilarious.  His crawling skills are improving, but backwards and circles are all he can pull off right now.  :)

We also left Cole for the first time this month to go to Mexico.  He did great. I did okay.  Hahaha!! So much freedom in knowing that I am not the only one who can keep Cole alive.  Thank you Lord! We must vacation sans baby again soon!

 Cole loves to stand.  And sit.  And he loves that finger!

We moved Cole's crib down to the middle setting.  He was getting a little toooo close to those owls.

First time in the little pool.  It was freezing.



First trip to the park!

Cole loves the bath!

It's so much cooler to not be trapped in the car seat.

Cole Henry, you are precious to us and a gift from the Lord!
