9 Months Old

B is as old as it took me to grow him! (does that make sense?) Had his 9 month pictures taken and I decided instead of slicking his hair down, we're just going to go all out and fro it out. One last hurray before we cut it around his first birthday. So we sprayed it with water, scrunched it, and then put hair spray in it. Now he looks like crazy cave man or wild monkey man. I think it is cute though.

Yesterday I thought I saw two teeth buds on the top. That makes two on top and two on bottom. It's like they come and go, which is irritating to me and I am sure B doesn't like it either. It must be the gums swelling around it that makes it seem like it is disappearing. It will be funny if I put B to bed with no teeth and then he wakes up with a mouth full, like John Elway. HAHA

He thinks he can stand unassisted too. This morning he climbed on Mike whild Mike was lying down and then just let go. He stood there for half a second and then started to fall. Mike caught him with his feet. Now I see where B gets it (using his feet as hands that is).

Zoo Day 2010

This isn't B's first time at the zoo. We all went to Zoo Lights when he was 2 months old. This experience was a little better. If you point out the animals to him he sees them, but if you don't the fence and kids around him are more interesting. I am sure next year he will really enjoy it. I wonder how big he will be next to these bears next year? Maybe standing next to them.

He liked the elephants because they were so big he could see them. We got to watch them get a bath and hear them trumpet when done. It kinda of scared him at first because it was pretty loud.
Giraffes were another favorite because of their size. There was also a new baby there too. So cute.
Look how big B is next to the polar bear. This will be another yearly picture. He liked hitting the glass and yelling in the underwater viewing area.

All and all it was a good day. One breakdown on the tour train, but good thing cousin Lanie was there to help distract him. That was probably B's highlight of the trip, seeing cousin Lanie. He wanted to be held by her as soon as he saw her. After that it was "forget about the animals, Lanie is here!" Very cute. I hope they always like each other. Now if we could only get cousins on the other side of the family...hahaha.

Son of a Biscuit Eating Bull Dog

So I've noticed that a lot of B's stuff is really similar to what you would give a dog. For instance, "Mike can you grab a chew toy for B?" and "Here you go B, mama got you a teething biscuit". If you didn't know that B was a human, you probably thought I was talking about my dog. Well, here are some pics of B gnawing away at his chew biscuit. What a sloppy mess it makes. He was covered in pieces of wheat biscuit. It was cute though.
