Dear Truman: 9 months

Truman, 9 months

My gorgeous boy,
I swear you get cuter by the minute!

9 whole months? WOW! You are such a big boy now.  You started crawling a little over a week ago and you pulled up to standing for the 2nd time today. I just can’t believe how busy you are now. You are trying to pull up on everything. Everything. And you follow your brother around and try to steal his toys, which I suppose is only fair since he’s been doing that to you for months!

You are still squishy and soft like a baby, but I know it won’t last much longer. Here’s proof…

You are a total Mama’s boy right now and I LOVE IT. I hope we are besties forever! You love your Daddy too, though. He’s really good at making you laugh and rocking you to sleep when you are too wound up to nurse. You are usually a bit of a night owl and get your 2nd wind after your brother has gone to bed. I think you like the few minutes of alone time.

You have the most contagious smile and laugh I have ever seen or heard. You make every day brighter.

Currently you have 7 teeth. The 8th one is close behind. That sure happened fast!

Some of your favorite things are playing pass the ball, clapping, blowing raspberries, babbling, chewing on books, watching Mama sing songs, bouncing in the jumperoo, splashing in the pool, watching your brother do all kinds of things, and crawling. You have a great sense of humor already!

Foods have still been an issue. We’ve found a few more things that you are having reactions to. Hopefully we’ll get in to a specialist soon to work it out. It makes us so sad when you don’t feel good.

Well, baby, these last 9 months have been amazing! You are such a sweet, snuggly, super happy boy. And Mama loves you to the moon and back.

xoxo,
Mama
