3/4 Of the Way There

This crazy hair boy is 9 months today! Every month it's the same thing...I can't believe how fast this is going by. He'll be 1 in three short months!! But instead of being sad about it, it makes me happy because he is getting better and better each month and it is so fun to watch him.

Some highlights from Ben's last month:

*Ben finally cut a tooth. He was a major crankpot which I totally blame on him being a male. The girls never made a peep when they were cutting teeth. His molars ought to be real fun!:)

*We have a crawler. I posted about it a few weeks ago, but he's made progress since then and is all over the place. The girls are really good about keeping their toys out of his play area, but I occasionally hear "mom, Ben has a choking hazard!":)

*Ben started MDO yesterday and had a fantastic first day with his new teachers and his old friends.

*We also had a family reunion at Mimi and PopPop's and Ben got to meet many of his extended cousins and they were smitten over him!

Ben is still a sweet as can be baby. Mags was like this and when she turned 1 her real personality came through (which is not a bad personality, just a little more opinionated). Based on that, I'm going to enjoy these last 3 months before he turns 1, just in case!!
