Carter 9 Months

At Carter's 9 month checkup he weighed 20 lbs 1 oz and was 27 1/2 inches tall. That put him in the 40% for his weight and 20% for height. He's no longer proportioned. Luckily at this appointment he didn't have to get major shots, just the flu shot. Carter has become an expert crawler, although he thinks that you can go down stairs face first. He'll eventually learn to turn around. He's figured out how to sit on his knees and bounce, which is super funny when he gets really excited. If there is anything for him to pull himself up on or push around there is no stopping him. He loves climbing up everything, especially against the sliding door and banging on the windows. I can only imagine what the neighbors think when they see him..."Let me out! or Hey! Hey! Hey! Do you see me?" He sure does know how to make me smile. One of Carter's favorite things to do is sit over by the stairs. I don't know why, but he's over there all the time. We sure do love our little monster.

The only way to keep him from knocking the spoon out of your hands is to give him one of his own.

He'll stand by the window and bang on it all day if you let him

You caught me mom! I'm just reading the paper :)

It's like he's in prison, I want to be in the real world too.

Raspberries on railings doesn't work so well, but it makes a great picture

Homemade ball pit...best thing ever!
