9 Months Is Getting REALLY Close to a Year

February 18, 2008 by Elaine

My youngest, Little G, is now 3/4 of a year old (as of Friday) and I know I say it when each month-a-versary comes along, but can I just repeat myself again and say, where doth though time goest? (Sorry, just trying to spice it up a little with some Shakesperean speak).

These days his Top 10 favorite things to do are listed here, MOST definitely in a particular order:
  1. EAT & DRINK (as in finger food or Mommy’s milk)
  2. Get into stuff (particularly anything gadget-like – proof that he is his father’s son…)
  3. Pull Up on ANYTHING he can (sometimes resulting in a loss of balance and thus a little “bonk” on the noggin or some other part of the body…ouch!)
  4. Babbling and blowing bubbles
  5. Bathing/Showering (LOVES the shower with Daddy!)
  6. Following Big Brother around the house by crawling
  7. Listening to Daddy make funny noises and laughing at him
  8. Searching on the floor for more things to eat (yick!)
  9. Playing with his toys, board books and brother’s toys (not the best idea…)
  10. Sleeping

And here are a few shots of the little man, even pretending to eat! And another hanging out in the laundry basket with his brother. Actually, Daddy was pulling them around the house in the basket, which The B Man loves and Little G is not too sure about yet.

So there you have it. In just 3 short months this child will be celebrating his 1st birthday. Excuse me while I go weep a little…

    It does go by way too quickly. Somehow while I wasn’t looking my baby is 3 and half!

    I remember all those things on the list so well… especially the bonking of his head. He was walking at 9 months and he didn’t quite walk upright. Rather the upper half of his body was WAY ahead of his feet. It resulted in many, many crash landings.

    It does go painfully fast. It is crazy.
    Ever since my youngest started walking he has a bruise somewhere on his head. He is constantly running into walls, standing up under tables, and falling onto his brothers’ big trucks. Ouch. Poor kid.
    A 9 month old that likes to sleep! Wow! Yeah for you! 🙂

    What adorable little guys! I was just musing on Friday about “biker boy” turning 3 VERY soon and how it’s slightly *sad*.

    His first birthday was a big wake up call that he was no longer a baby.

    I love it, though.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog – stop by again some time!

    I’ll be back here.

    My little one is 7 months today! I can’t believe how fast time flies. My baby boy seems to like a lot of things your little one does 🙂
    What precious pictures!
