Time Flies When You Are Having Fun

My little baby is growing so fast. He amazes me everyday with new things he is doing and learning. It makes me sad but excited all at the same time. I miss him being so small and making those cute little infant noises. I miss him just laying in my arms and staring up at me like there is no-one or nothing in the world that will ever make him look elsewhere. I am excited that he is becoming his own person and learning new things everyday. I am looking forward to all the fun things we get to do together. I am excited to show him the beauty of the world. Its like I get to see things again for the first time! It is such an amazing feeling watching him grow. It happens so fast though! I wish life was just a little bit slower. Andrew and I are so lucky and grateful to have him.

Here are some updates on our little man:

• He turned 9-months old yesterday! WOW!!!
  
• He started saying "da-da" on Wednesday. He whispers it every time. It's so cute. But don't worry he started saying "ma-ma" about a month or so ago.
  
• He started waving.
  
• He started clapping on Wednesday.
  
• He is army scooting (it's like crawling but not on all fours)
  
• He can now push himself up into standing position (holding onto something)
  
• He can walk along the couch, chair, or when holding our hands. They are very little wobbly steps BUT they are still steps!
  
• He got his first two teeth in!!!
  
• He officially has long shaggy hair. Like father, like son!
