So our boy is already 9 months old!! It is so crazy how the time is flying by. According to the stats Carter is little, only in the 2% in weight. We've known that we have a skinny boy in comparison, but he was even worse this time because he had just gotten over the stomach flu. Hopefully he'll get his appetite back soon and so we can get some more chub on him. :-)

Carter's 9 months stats
16 pounds 11 ounces = 2%
28.54 inches = 54%

As a parent you'll do anything to get your kid to laugh. We love hearing Carter laugh so enjoy this video of Mikey "getting" him.

Carter is learning new things everyday. He is really starting to pull himself up more so maybe by a year he'll be walking? We're not to anxious for that milestone though. We love the crawling stage. He's also recently started to freak out if you take something away from him, so that is a new phase. He is definitely getting into more things now so you've always got to watch him. It's fun to see him become more independent and yet sad at the same time. We had all these jars of food and Carter wasn't eating them much, but then he starting eating a lot when we let him help feed himself. A little more messy, but worth the experience.
