9 Months!!

Brecken had a big 8-9 months.  He learned to crawl.   He really doesn't like to though.  He's lazy that way.   We always know when Brecken is coming because he usually whines, or cries the whole time he is crawling around.  He has learned to listen to voices and find out where we are at in the house, and crawl there.  He is a wiggler.  He moves around even when you are holding him he is digging his head into you and trying to move around. He loves being outside and stroller rides. He is doing better with food.  He eats at least one cartoon of baby food.  Plus, a big bowl of Rice Cereal at night.  He also eats off of us, whatever he can, he's a beggar and usually tries new things.  If he likes them or not is another story.  He is starting to be more happy.  He doesn't spit up all that much anymore. He still has NO teeth.  I swear you could say this kid has been teething since he was two months, but still nothing.  He is starting to laugh more, and the kids get him to laugh constantly, they love him, and he loves them.  He hasn't had his 9 month apt so I don't have any stats, but he is growing, and getting big.  He pulls himself into standing position, and would rather stand then crawl.  He is constantly pulling himself up in his crib at naps, and in the morning.  I kinda hate that.  Because he doesn't know how to let go and put himself down.  He still does not care to be in the car, and cries when we put him in.  He loves music, and usually stops crying when I turn on Frozen in the car.  It's quit funny to hear, and see.  He loves rugs, and grabs corners, and pulls them around him. I hate this one. They are so dirty.  I try and wash them, but 5 + other people walk on them, and he can't get enough of them.  He snuggles right into them..I often tease that I'm going to buy him his own rug for his birthday, but he will still drag it around the dirty floors.  Oh well can't win them all. He is so loved, and we still can't get over how blessed we are to have him in our family.

Brecken learned to crawl in the bathroom, and pull himself up on moms tub, so he can disturb her quiet time she try's to have every once in awhile.

Brecken was a naughty boy one day and decided to grab the cracker box off bed and pour out the crackers, and shove them in while mom cleaned up the high chair from lunch.  While I'm cleaning up the crackers, he crawls to the kitchen, and starts taking out my clean dishes, and throwing them on the floor.  I think I will have my work cut out for me with this little one.  He's a busy body.
