9 Months

I haven't been the best at keeping up with my blogging. I know there have been several things that I've thought about blogging about, but right now I can't think of any of them. Blake hit the 9 month mark on February 19th. We celebrated by taking him for his first haircut. He was a really good sport. He only cried when we had to hold his head and he looked so handsome when he was finished. He now has 5 teeth and is working on his sixth. He chews on everything! He is a certified speed crawler and is pulling up on everything and cruising around our house moving from one stationary object to the next. Because of this there have been a few bumps and bruises. I even got my "be cool like Jenna" moment when Blake fell and busted his lip. It was my first experience with blood and I would have to say that I think I passed. He has become quite the little talker, but the only thing that really recognizable is "da-da". I'm still hoping for "ma-ma" before long, but for now when I ask him to say "ma-ma" he responds will a sweet smile and "da-da"!

At Blake's six month appointment these were his stats:
weight: 20lbs 7oz - 47%
height: 29.75 - 90% (must be the Roth genes!)
head circumference: 46cm - 70%
Blake after his haircut. So handsome!

I had to put in at least one crying picture.

It baffles me! I cannot imagine Ben looking like such a little boy in 4 months. I mean, just 4-5 months ago, he was born!
