9 Months

What a month! If I were to list here everything that comes to mind this post would be way too long. Anders just does not stop anymore and he's learning things so fast I can't believe it. Not only does he walk around with walkers now but if he gets stuck on something he knows how to turn it so that he can get around things. He can bend over while standing up and pick up toys without falling over and he'll take a couple of steps on his own if he feels like it. We have a toy box that is just his heighth and it's his favorite thing. I set it up in the middle of the living room and he would be happy to do nothing other then walk around it and pick toys out here and there all day long.


He sure is a busy kid. He does not like to sit still for one minute.
He says mama and dada; although I don't think that he knows what they mean yet. But he will repeat those words when I say them to him.
I'm jinxing myself by saying this but lately he has been sleeping like an angel. I don't know if it's because he's been sick or what but it's been great!
Both of his top teeth have come through now.
He has finally taken to the nursing thing again. In fact, today he made it clear to me that he would rather nurse then take the bottle. Of course that was just at one feeding, but it made me happy because that was NOT the case not too long ago.

He will wave bye-bye, when he feels like it. It's not just a hand wave, his whole arm moves up and down and it is just darling! Thank you Grandma Darley.
Have you ever noticed the vonage commercial where the screen is orange? There really isn't much that goes on in the commercial, just a bunch of words, it shows the earth for a second and mostly it's just a big screen of orange. If that commercial comes on and Anders is in the room he immediately stops what he is doing and turns to watch it. He knows the guys voice or the music or something because he can be completely out of view of the television and he'll start trying to get to where he can see it. This has been going on since he was probably five or six months old. In fact today he was almost asleep and that commercial came on and I thought for sure that he would be wide awake once he heard the guys voice, but luckily that wasn't the case. We'll see what happens next time though. Isn't that strange? If only I knew what he was thinking...
