8 months.........9/24/2011

Seems like time just goes right out the window these days.  Just to get everyone caught up, now that we're almost to 9 months, figured I'd better get a move on.

Holden is just amazing.  Each day he learns and discovers something new.  Crawling is almost a past time, I think he'll be walking before we know it.  But for now, he is enjoying learning to realize that crawling gets him from point A to point B.  And that if Momma is busy and I fuss, she talks to me and I can follow her voice until I find her.  Long were the days when I could put Holden in one spot and know if I turned away for a second, he'd still be there.  Not so much the case these days.  Zeus seems to like it though.  Holden went from being this little creature that sat there and made noise, to a little creature that now crawls on Zeus, pulls at his ears, tries to kiss him and slobbers more than Zeus ever thought he could.  But we love em' both very much.




Holden is 21.10 lbs and 29.5" long

He eats everything. There is no fruit or veggies that he turns away from.  We're starting to introduce some chicken, turkey and finger foods.  Real food really, green beans, peas and bananas that he can pick up, versus just baby food.

He LOVES his "stand-up" toys.  The ones that he can sit up, pull up and stand up at.  I feel like I need to pad everything, cause in Holden's eyes everything is "little tykes" or "fisher price."  Before long everything in my house will be covered with pool noodles, seriously, I read it in one of my parent magazines.  Tips from mom's, use pool noodles, slice them and fit them over sharp edges.




My favorite.  Hard at work cleaning dishes.  Chubby wittle legs, could just eat him.
Its hard to believe that he is almost as old as the time it took for him to grow in my tummy.  Every day is such a blessing with him.  I'm very thankful to also have the opportunity to work from home managing a field team again.  This gives me more time at home with my little angel boy.  Don't have to rush out the door each morning.  Have more cuddle time.
