Ok...
So, the things Levi has done this month are crazy! I have been putting all of his "accomplishments" on our kitchen calendar so that I'll remember them. I don't always have time to run upstairs and write it down, so the calendar is a good place to keep track of that stuff.
So this month:
He had his first fever :(
Had his 9 mo appt. (a little late)
Started to switch from army crawl, to a consistent crawl on his hands and knees.
Says "hi" and "buh-bye" when waving
Started pulling up on EVERYTHING and trying to cruise
Drank rice milk out of a sippy cup. (I'm trying to wean him before we go on our weekend away in Oct!)
Had his first "angry" reaction to mommy. I put avocado in his mouth... 2x. ;)
Goes from crawling to sitting, then back to crawling without help.
He is around 19 pounds. I've tried to weigh him at home... doesn't work so well. He's quite wiggly. Except for right when he wakes up, he's constantly moving. He's so funny! He likes to be crawling and moving around. He just crawls around and looks for toys to play with. As long as his tummy is full, and diaper is clean, he's a happy camper. He loves toys that make noise, and things that are colorful. He's been afraid of toys that move by themselves though. He cries and goes crawling for mommy. :)
He's a great sleeper, even while teething. He woke up a couple times, but if I give him a bit of ibuprofen at his last nursing, he's good all night. He sleeps from about 7:30 or 8p to 6:30 or 7a. He also takes 2 naps during the day that last from 1 1/2 to 2 hours. At the most 2 1/2 hours. One in the morning (2 hours after he wakes up) which is usually around 9 or 9:30a. The second one is around 1 or 1:30p. The nice thing is that it's at the same time as Madilyn's.
He's been trying some new stuff. It's really hard though. What do you feed a 10 month old that can't eat dairy or soy? He still eats baby cereal for all 3 meals, plus cheerios, and then canned or frozen veggies for his finger foods. He's tried pasta w/some oil and seasonings on it and likes it a lot! He only has 2 teeth (working on more), so I'm limited to what I can give him. It's just hard to think of anything that doesn't involve milk in some way... or something that is ok for kids under 1. I am just hoping that his range of foods will expand once he has more teeth, and can eat more things.
Well... that's about it for now! Glad I got that stuff down while I was thinking about it.
God Bless!

Levi is 10 months old!
Ok, here's my normal pic for now... I'll have to write about my crazy boy later... because seriously, he's met a lot of milestones the past couple weeks! Plus he's working on his 3rd and 4th tooth...
More later!
God Bless!

9 month stats
Levi had a "sick" visit at the doctor today, and it was supposed to be his 9 month well visit. He went to bed fine last night, and I checked on him to feed him one last time, and he had a pretty decent fever. It was about 101 under the arm... but I feel like my thermometer sucks, because he felt warmer than that. Anyways, we cooled him down, etc. and went to the doctor today. I guess it's just a virus, and he's got a red, sore throat. We'll have to stay home for a couple days till it goes away.
We still got our shot, since it was just a virus, and it about ripped my heart out! His little lip puckered out, and tears came streaming down, I about cried! Sweet baby... I hate it when he's unhappy, or hurts. It's not fair that babies hurt. Not far at all!
His stats are: 18.8lbs (I thought 20, but I was a bit off!) which is 25th percentile. His length is 28.75" which is 50th to 55th percentile. His head is 18" around, which is also about the 55th percentile.
The only things he's not doing WELL that they asked me about is pulling up to standing. He does pull up, and crawls up onto the lower part of the coffee table, etc... and onto mommy and daddy, but he doesn't pull up in his crib yet, and doesn't pull up very well on the furniture yet. He also doesn't play "patty cake"... didn't even think to try playing it! I'll have to work on that one.
Here he is @ about 8 1/2 months... and I'm showing it because I pulled up Madilyn's stats at 9 months:
Madilyn was 17lbs even, and 27 1/2" long. She was a bit smaller! :) Here's a picture of her walking behind her push walker @ 9 months. Levi, there is no way he could do that right now! He's just content crawling. He's such a happy boy! It's fun to see their differences!
Well, that's it for now!
God bless!
