Calder 9 Months

Calder,

I have been so proud of you this month. You have grown so much and are learning so many things. You have adjusted to your new home and bedroom. You didn't seem to notice that you don't share a room with your parents anymore. You love your bedroom and want to spend a big chunk of time there. Here are a few other things you've been up to this month:

• You have perfected your trilling. You especially like to use it to keep yourself awake.
• When I ask if you want a snack you say "nak".
• You are much better at using your fingers to pinch food. You can pick up just about anything including slippery beans and watermelon.
• You use everything to pull yourself up and stand. You LOVE to stand up. I think you could do it for hours.
• When I lay you down you automatically roll onto your stomach.
• You now sleep with a teddy bear named Bert. You love Bert and often talk to him when you wake up. You also sometimes throw him over the edge of your crib.
• When you eat you always share with Deebo. Usually when you are getting full you start throwing everything you can towards Deebo. He loves it.
• You always look for Deebo when you wake up.
  
• You love to play with your wooden train, ball and push toy.
  

I love you and I feel so blessed to share every day with you. I love how happy you are and hope you always are.

Love,
Mommy
