Landon's 9 Month Post

I think one of the great things about a blog will be that I can always look back and remember what things were like at different stages in our life.

At 9 months, Landon has had so many changes! He got his first two teeth on the bottom! He was in a lot of pain as they pushed through, but he looks so cute now with those little teethies!

He is trying so hard to crawl!! Poor little bud. He has been pretty fussy the past few weeks at daycare or the house when he's on the floor playing because he just wants to be moving! He can get up on his knees, rock, move his arms, but his legs just won't go with him! Because of this, he is constantly falling over! Which makes him so mad! We will all be happy when the Lan Man figures out the last few steps to crawling...I know...be careful what you wish for!!

I've almost got it Daddy!

No!!!! I just can't do it! :(

Landon LOVES to be out and about! When we are at a restaurant, a sporting event, church, etc. (Anywhere with lots of people to watch) He is the happiest baby! He will sit through a 1 hour church service or a 2 1/2 hour basketball game without hardly making a peep (except maybe...da..da..da...da). He's typically just wide-eyed and smiling watching the action! He also likes to flirt with older women and pretty college girls. Hmm...I wonder where he gets that character trait? :) Better not be from his Daddy!

Sweet Landon has been sick during this month. He had RSV and an ear infection. We had to give him breathing treatments several times a day for the past two

weeks. He was finally cleared on Thursday, and he seems to be feeling a lot better!

At Landon's 9 month appointment he weighed 17 lbs and was 26 1/2 inches long. He was in the 3rd percentile for his weight, 4th percentile for his height, and 9th percentile for his head circumference. He's our little Lan Man, but we love him that way! Maybe someday he'll be tall like his Daddy! :)

Even though my baby is growing up, Landon and Mommy still love to snuggle! Daddy snuck this picture the other night when we fell asleep on the couch snuggling.

We love our little Lan Man and the fun he brings to our lives. Philip just said last night, "You know, you see things in a whole new way with a baby. It's like you are seeing them again for the first time!"
