My 9-monther!

Today is James' 9 month birthday!!!! NINE whole months have gone by in a flash. It really does seem like just a week ago I was in the hospital with this sweet, little baby with big, squeezable cheeks!  I honestly never thought I could love this little boy so much, but he has brought such joy to our family with his big dimples, sweet smile, and easy-going attitude. I could hug on him all day long and kiss his cheeks till my lips hurt!  God has been so good to us and has blessed us beyond our understanding.

So...what is my nine monther doing now?  Well he is alllllll overrrrr the place!  I call it "run crawling" because he just takes off crawling as fast as he can to his toys or his sister and gets there in a flash! He pulls up on everything and walks behind his push toys and holding on to furniture, walls, or hands.  He has 8 teeth now- 4 on top and 4 on bottom.  He is finally sleeping better and sleeping through the night sometimes! Yay!  I think his favorite thing to do is DANCE! Wherever we are, if he hears music he starts waving his arms up and down to the beat!  He does it at restaurants, in the car, at the pep rally!  People stop us and watch because it is the cutest thing you will see. He loves his toys and can play for a hour without even looking up. He is such an easy baby to have around and just "goes with the flow" most of the time. I am so thankful to have an laid-back little boy- it makes my life much easier!  James loves his sister so much and pretty much attacks her at every chance he gets! He grabs her legs and wraps himself around them while kissing her feet!  They already have such a special relationship, and I can't wait to see it grow!
