Nine Months

Nine months- Mac is weighing in at just above 19 pounds now, and it sitting on his own, army crawling on his tummy and very close to really cruising around. He has just started reaching up to hold onto things, trying to pull his bottom up off the ground a bit.but is usually easily distracted by anyone watching him and stops to smile and talk to.

He likes to repeat sounds that he hears. I'll say, "mamama" and he smiles and repeats it back to me, in his raspy voice and so proud. Mac has learned to wave and does it often. He also just loves to eat. Oftentimes, he'll take a bit and very enthusiastically say, "MMMMM!" It is so cute!

My favorite thing that Mac is doing right now is laughing at his sister. In the car, their car seats face opposite directions, giving them a good view of each other. Lola has been making Mac laugh by sawing a funny word, then she laughs for a bit with him, they calm down and then she starts it all over again. I could drive around for hours just listening to them giggle with each other. It's so great.
