Wow! Cannon and Adelaide were nine months old on May 6,2011
Adelaide celebrated in a big way by learning to crawl. As hard as it is to keep up with her, she is a much happier baby now that she can move and groove and get to where she wants to be. Also in her ninth month, she learned to get into a sitting position from her tummy, pull up, and wave "bye bye". It was a huge month for her developmentally. She is very much a mama's girl. I love it, but it is exhausting! She cries when I leave the room, she cries if I walk past her and don't stop to speak or pick her up, she cries if I even dare to put Cannon in the crib or car seat first, she cries if I am holding Cannon, she cries if I do anything that doesn't include her! BUT - she is an extremely happy baby when I am away. It is very hard because she is usually with me and it wears me out. Oh how I love her though...there is something really sweet about being the one she wants. She loves anything that plays music. She likes to play Emily Kay's Little People doll house and she loves the ball popper. She waves her hands all in the air and just laughs. It is the cutest thing!
Cannon, not wanting to be out done by his "baby" sister, learned to crawl on May 18, 2011. I really think he learned out of necessity, Adelaide would crawl up to him, take his toy, put the toy in her mouth and then crawl away. It was pretty funny to watch, because he was getting a taste of his own medicine. He would get so mad and poke his little bottom lip out, thankfully he was easily distracted. He is an easygoing, laid back baby. He can be pretty serious and he is still not to quick to give out a smile. He loves anything with wheels and anything that rolls. He likes to look at books and he likes the door stoppers. Cannon got his first teeth during this month. He now has three. Two on the bottom and one on the top.
At nine months, they are both eating 4 bottles a day, taking 2 naps a day, eating 3 meals, and sleeping for 8-7, Life is pretty good with this schedule! They have started eating some finger foods. They love puffs, cheerios, bananas, and pears.
At their 9 month appointment they both were doing great! Adelaide weighed 17lbs 10 oz and was 27.5 inches long. She was in the 50th percentile for both weight and height. Cannon weighed 23 lbs and 10 oz and was 30.5 inches long. He was in the 95th percentile for both weight and height.
