Cruz Tyler: 9 Months Old

Cruz: 9 Month Update

 

(I'm so late posting this, it's embarrassing, but I know I'll regret it if I never do!) 

• Celebrated his first Christmas, actually celebrated it about 6 times! Whew! It was a lot, but he had a blast!
• Said MaMa for the first time on New Years Day! Best little sound ever!
• Starting to army crawl. Uh oh! Time to baby proof!
• Can turn himself in a circle while sitting up
• Waves hi and bye, sometimes
• Says DaDa, bye bye, and MaMa...sometimes. Mostly DaDa.
• Tried yogurt for the first time and LOVED it. Starting doing more baby food again and he seems to like it now. Solids still make him gag, so we're holding out on those
• Loves to arch his back and throw his head back when he's mad...yeah, that's not fun...

Cruz Tyler: 8 Months Old

Cruz: 8 Month Update

 

***I'm so behind on posting these, it's embarrassing... :/ 

 

Milestones:

• Shakes his head "no, no, no" constantly!
• Celebrated his first Thanksgiving
• Participated in his first "Cookie Day"!
• Tried green beans, carrots, apples, oranges, mashed potatoes, waffle, biscuit and puffs. Almost everything made him gag, except for the green beans and puffs. But after a few too many puffs, he did get sick. He'll get this eating thing someday.
• Can pretty much sit up on his own, with an occasional fall backwards
• Says "Dada, Gaga, Baba and huh" all the time. Still working on Mama 
• Met Santa and took a super cute picture with him. Didn't cry at all! But I don't think he really had any idea who was holding him, so it worked out!
