9 Month Stat Comparision...

Brooke:
17 lb 13 oz (50%), Height 26 1/2" (25%)

Tyler:
21.5 lbs (50%), Height 28 1/2" (50-75%)

Nate:
23 lb 6 oz (95%), Height 30" (90%)

Also, I read Tyler's 9 Month notes, and it looks like he was pretty much eating as much as Nate is, and close to sleeping as little.  Also, Nate is up to 7 teeth!!  4 on top, and 3 on bottom.

He is still drinking about 3 4oz bottles per day, and nursing about 5 times!! He takes his bottles at 9am, noon, and 3pm, and is nursing at 6pm, 8pm, 12pm, 4am, and 7am. He is one hungry little man. He is also eating foods at 9 am, and 6 pm. He is taking two naps at daycare (8-9am and 12-2pm) and I will let you guess how much he is sleeping at night based on his nursing schedule above.

2014 Here We go! 9 Months Old!

 
Well our little man if officially 3/4 of a year old!!  As you can tell by the pictures below he is still just a happy, happy little guy.  We are starting to increase his meals from 2 to 3 per day, of which he loves his fruit the best, and tolerates his vegges.  He still isn't great at finishing his bottles of milk during the day, or nursing during the day, but great at nursing at night...go figure. We (I) are trying hard to reduce feeding him at night which is currently 8 p.m., 11 p.m., 2 a.m, 5 a.m....so sleepy!  Last night was the first night he actually went from 7:30 p.m to 1:30 a.m. to 6:30 a.m.  I would have been so refreshed if it wasn't for the fact Brooke decided to wake me every 30 minutes between the hours to 10 p.m. and 12:30 a.m.
 
Nathan is also pulling himself up like a pro, and done with the whole army crawling thing.  Look out this little man can move.  He also will make a straight line to go somewhere, regardless what is in his path.  Our main concern is Brooke & Tyler think its funny to teach him about the stairs!  He tries to take a few steps while holding on to your hands, even though we really aren't trying to encourage walking!
 
I will get his official stats in a week and will post the numbers.  (12-18 month clothing are fitting him the best.)


2013 Catch Up!!

Okay, its that time to quickly catch back up before I get too far behind!!  Fortunately for you, unfortunately for me, I don't feel right about just starting with today's pictures, and not going back to where I left off.  I will keep the writing short to not bore you too much, but here is a quick summary of our lives over the past few months!
