9 months in – 9 months out
Likes:
- babbling (“ya ya ya” “ba ba ba” “ma ma ma” and “da da da” are his current hits)
- being carried around
- eating
- crawling
- playing
Dislikes:
- being hungry
- being stinky
- being overly tired
- sitting when he wants you to stand
Food:
Spencer is a food machine. He nurses and eats meals at the table when we do. I have yet to find something he doesn’t like and his food palate continues to grow.
Sleep:
7pm is still bedtime around here and he goes back and forth between sleeping all night and waking up. If he does wake up, it’s usually around midnight or 3am. I nurse him, change him and he immediately falls back asleep.
He naps once in the morning around 9am, at 12pm and sometimes a short 20minute nap around 4/4:30pm.
Life:
Spencer’s biggest accomplishment this month is crawling. He scoots, pulls/drags himself and is getting more confident on his knees. He can also go from his tummy to sitting up (something he just did one day. I turned around, leaving him on his belly, and when I turned back around he was sitting… I was like, “did… wait… what?” hahaha)
Spencer is well loved by his big sisters. I almost always see him with at least one if not all of them.
He loves to play – which has been fun! He’s awesome playing independently which surprises me.
Me:
I slacked on photos of us together this month 🙁 definitely snagging more next month.
But this kid is really coming into himself and I love it. He is such a sweetheart!
I’ve gotten into a good rhythm with him (& the girls) which honestly makes our days so much richer. We all thrive in routine and when I look back on the newborn days, it was beautiful in it’s own but I’m also thankful for these older days.
