3/4 of 1

9 Months...and yes the 1st Birthday planning has begun :)  The past month has been an absolute blast with our little angel.  He is so full of life and smiles, it is such a joy to get to spend every day with him.
-No crawling yet, but he has figured out the position and we wake up every day thinking today is going to be the day.
-New foods introduced this month - grapes, blueberries, broccoli, cauliflower.
-He ran his first high temp, 102.6 at it's highest.
-While fighting his temp he began sleeping on his side and tummy.  For some reason this makes him look like such big boy to me ;(
-He started eating finger foods and loves cut up Mango!
-We took our first trip to the lake.
-If you put two fingers down in front of him, he will reach out and grab them and stand himself up
-He has attempted to pull up on the coffee table but hasn't made it all the way up yet.
-With his temp he let me rock him to sleep for the first time ever.
-His first word was "Da-Da" on June 26 and then "Ma-Ma-Ma" on June 27.  And melted our hearts.
-The life jacket is not his favorite thing to put on .  Ok, he actually HATES it.
-For some reason if Aunt Mate is staying in our other spare bedroom, he will wake up every hour during the night.  It's the weirdest thing.
-He enjoyed his first Popsicle! a 100% natural mango and pineapple one while watching his puppies play.
"Something on my face?"
 -He loves to find his reflection.
-His new trick is sticking his tongue out and moving it around.
-He now loves the game "let's throw this in the floor and see how many times they will pick it up"
-We broke down and bought a "mom" camera.  Kyte now thinks he is a professional.
-Sitting him on the back deck to watch the dogs play will usually calm him down if he is upset.
-Tooth #6 finish making it's way in this month.
I CANNOT believe in 3 short months, he will be 1.  Where is the time going?!?
