See, originally I was just going to take nine months maternity leave and nine months seemed so far away when you were first born, but oh how they've flied.. They really have! It's a bit of a nice feeling to think you were in my belly for the same amount of time.
We woke up today and I don't know why, maybe it was just in my subconscious, but you seemed bigger. Older.
9 Month old Developments
+ Getitng about - Even though you technically don't 'crawl', you get about on your tummy. You're very good at going backwards.
+ Moaning! :( - maybe your teething.. you probably are. You've been making this ever so slightly annoying groaning noise a lot. It can be very hard for Mummy to listen to all day. I've read that it could be because you're near a milestone and are frustrated that you're not quite there yet or it could be teething or boredom.. we've mixed up the routine a bit and intruding teething granules and we seem to maybe be onto a winner.
It's worth mentioning that you went on a swing for the first time yesterday too! You liked it, although you we're very much intrigued by what the nearby builders were up to! You nosey thing!
Time is flying by baby, and it feels like I just wrote your 8 month update. I don't mind though.. I'm enjoying every single second with you. I love you... More than life. x

I can't get over he is 9 months! I remember all your bump updates, crazy how time flies. I wished I had longer off from maternity leave, I only took 7 months! Next time will be different for sure! Are you planning on going back? X
ReplyDeleteOh he is just the cutest Alex! I love the little picture of him on the swing, so adorable. I cant believe how quickly they grow up, Oscar is 7 months now and time is just flying by! xx

Aww, I love when they copy! Oscar's favourite is when Nathan goes 'Rar, rar, rar' - it doesn't matter what he's doing he will turn round and say it back to daddy!

ReplyDeleteenjoy every minute it goes too quick and do not bother with nurseries you're doing far better job on your day out than they could ever do could.. and you loose such valuable time too..

ReplyDeleteReminds me when mine were so small..how time flies! My son is now taller than me..seems a lifetime ago he was crawling around my feet! Precious memories indeed :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a bonny little chat. Excellant blog
ReplyDeleteLovely pics, doesnt seem that long since my twins were nine mths old, now they are five and at full time school, where did the years go.
ReplyDeleteCute cute, me wee girl just turned 2 a couple of days ago. Had a great day!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy him while he's young, they grow up far too quickly!
ReplyDeleteWhen they start hanging on to things to stand up is the same time you should do a quick inventory check of everything that could possibly fall over or open like drawers, flatscreen TV's etc. Also worth moving all electronics up a bit higher, nothing worse than finding banana in your Blu-Ray player :) Can't take your eyes off them for a second once they get mobile! But it's also a very exciting time, first steps and all that.
ReplyDeleteah hes gorgeous you must be very proud .enjoy as time fies mine are now 9 and 6
ReplyDeleteCherish every moment because it flies by so quickly.
ReplyDeleteHappy 9 months Ethan - on your way to your milestone 1st birthday!! Ethan's adorable, he looks happy and contented & I'm sure you're so proud of him :)
ReplyDeleteHappy 9 months Ethan. He's such a sweetie but will be 9 years before you know it. Enjoy him.
ReplyDeleteAwwww he is sooooo sweet
ReplyDeletesuper cute!!!! my two boys love going feeding the cheeky geese as well
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely idea - something lovely to look back on and stir memories when your little one has grown up :-)
ReplyDeleteAwh what a wee cutie pie!! My little one is 3!!! As much as I have loved every minute watching him grow I miss the days when he was a little cuddly baby! Feeling VERY broody!! ;) xx
