Can you even believe that my little man is 9 months?!
He is continuing on his rapid growth and was 26.2 pounds and 30 something inches. Our new pediatrician's office is 100% digital, which is very different from our old office. Anyway, I didn't get a piece of paper with his weight and height so by the time I thought to ask to write it down the nurse was gone! : ) So he is very healthy and actually back on track as far as milestones go, due to the fact that he is slimming down....finally!
So the picture is of his newest trick! He loves to pull up on everything including his crib. This is probably my least favorite stage. They can get up but NOT down and this means lots of falling down and crying. Well, this also means that nap/bed time is becoming more of a challenge than it already was. Lawsen has become very used to falling asleep while he is nursing. I've tried many times to change this habit but it's much easier said than done. This also means bedtime, too. So he wakes up at least 2 times each night and wants to nurse to get back to sleep. He was sleeping well, about 10 hours, at about 2 1/2 months and then we moved to Wisconsin and he has not slept through the night since. He was 5 months when we moved. So I'm trying different things and am willing to take any suggestions on how to get him to sleep through the night. Oh and he will not take a bottle so that makes it tough, too! I love being a mom so much and look forward to many more great times to come!
