9 Month Update

Sorry I've been stinking at posting lately. Tommy is great. He's growing and changing and is now pretty mobile so I spend most of my free time chasing after him and have little time to be on the computer!

He had his 9 month appointment and he weighs 20lbs 3ozs and is 27.5in long which puts him in the 45th percentile for weight and 40th percentile for height. Bill took him to the appointment and can't remember his head circumference but he was in the 90th percentile. I guess he inherited Bill's giant dome piece!

He is scooting around on his tummy like a pro! He hasn't really had any desire to crawl on his hands and knees but that's fine! On Friday, he just randomly started going from his belly to sitting up! I had never seen him even attempt this and he just started doing it. He is also pulling himself up from his belly to kneeling when he has something to pull himself up on. However, he STILL can't go anywhere when he's laying on his back. He is completely stuck. Our pediatrician isn't concerned since he is doing everything else. 

Our pediatrician also told us that she wants us to try soy yogurt with Tommy and if that goes well, she said we can try soy formula instead of the Nutramigen. We'll see, I'm not going to rush it. The Nutramigen is expensive but it works with Tommy's sensitive tummy. I hope the soy yogurt goes well though, I'd like to get him eating some other foods. If he happens to be sensitive to dairy for his whole life, I'd like for him to have alternatives that he likes and can eat.

Basically, I'm loving my little guy. He so fun and it's crazy how quickly he's growing and changing!

Love his blue eyes!
