Big Boy Post - 9 months!


Finn is 9 months, a week and an half. We had his 9 month check up today. Dr. Lei said he looks perfect and healthy... very healthy.

Weight 25 pounds, 3 ounces - 97th percentile
Height 29 inches - 80th percentile
Head Circumference 18.6 inches - 97th percentile

Just in the last week, he is starting to army crawl. It takes him a while to get where he wants to go, and it has to be something he really wants to get him moving. But he is getting better everyday.

Finn sleeps through the night from about 7:30pm - 6:30am. We've made this schedule for him because we need him awake that early during the week. But it kills us on the weekend. Sometimes he'll fall back asleep for us for a little while, but never enough.

He has 2 bottom teeth, and the two top teeth will probably start cutting through soon. Finn is getting good an chewing/mashing up food and can eat some crackers and dried fruit. Mostly he still eats mushy baby food though.

He has the best facial expressions I've seen out of any baby, his surprised look makes me laugh every time. He is constantly saying Mama and Dada, and even though he doesn't know what he is saying, it still makes me feel good inside.

So cute!

But when will he learn to say the really important things like "Miranda" and "Root Beer Float"???
