Here are some facts about Zack at 9 months:
1. He loves everyone who will pay attention to him.
2. He loves food, pretty much anything I put in his mouth. (Grapefruit, kiwi, BROWNIES, hot cocoa, cream of wheat, celery, vinegar, wait that's Alex) Except rice, rice frustrates him because it is too small to chew or gum so he spits it out.
3. He is obsessed with his face. He loves looking at pictures of himself and the mirror still makes him smile.
4. He likes touchy feely books. Even if it doesn't have things to feel on the pages he will point his finger out and try to feel the book anyway. He also loves his book with the doggy in it. I turn to that page and ask where the doggy is and he will point to it.
5. He is proud of himself for holding his bottle, even though he gets into trouble by tipping it upside down.
6. When he eats he is very entertaining. I call him my little baby "what about Bob". He scrunches up his face, purses his lips, squeezes his fingers together and says "mmmmmmmm". I've been trying to capture it on my camera but I've only got it on video. It is soooo funny.
7. Zack loves to pull off his socks and eat them.
8. Last night we discovered that he loves to play ball. We bought him a batman ball for valentines and it's big enough for him to hold and toss away, kind of.
9. He loves to watch Elmo but is afraid of Tellie.
10. He also loves his Baby McDonald movie.
11. I can usually stop him from whining if I sing Old McDonald to him.
12. David Archuletta can calm him down like nobodys business. I though it was a fluke but in the car, I just turn it on and silence! I tried it for naps and bedtime too. Works like a charm!
13. He is still working on getting his chubby tummy off the ground and crawling. All of his friends are crawling now. This week I have seen some improvement so maybe it will be soon.
14. He already is bigger at 9 months than Kevin was at a year. We have created a monster!

15. Zack weened himself of his binky about 3 weeks ago. He still finds it in his bed occasionally and will suck on it but not if we give it to him.
16. He loves to be outside. Even if it's sitting in the stoller while I shovel the driveway. He always tries to talk to anyone who walks by. He will yell out "Ah?".
17. Zack has 4 teeth. The top 2 came in last week.
18. Bathtime is a favorite around our house. It takes up some time and Zack loves to splash! Thank heaven for our little bath seat!


19. Zack loves it when Daddy comes home. He will hardly take his eyes off of him.
20. He is not a cuddler. If you get too close to Zack he will push your face away. His favorite person to do this to is his aunt Le'a. This is a real lovely picture of me, but you get the idea.

Gotta LOVE this baby!

Oh my goodness-I love all his pictures!Can't get enough of him! RACHEL!!! He is such a stud. He seems so smart. I don't think Paislee was doing half the stuff at 9months that he can do. That's so funny that David Archuleta calms him down. I should try that with Paislee, but Chad would probably flip a lid if I brought any DA in our house. ha ha..That's a good enough reason for me to do it, right? Love the picture with the sock in his mouth- so funny! I can't believe he is 9 months.
He's the cutest ever! I hope I have a baby that is as adorable as him.
Happy 9 months baby!! :)
That is quite the milestone...
He's really bigger than Kevin was?? That's scary.. He's going to be taller than you before he's 3!! :)
Miles LOVES bath time too.. Uncle Jonny will have to take the boys swimming and teach them all he knows when he gets home! :)
