9 Months Old... and other news...

I haven't had a chance to update for a while so here are some random shots in no particular order. (I couldn't get all of them for some reason so there might be a couple more tomorrow too.)
Andrew is 9 months old now and just like every other mother of a nine-month-old, I can't believe that he's been out of the womb as long as he was in! It seems like he's been around forever! Being pregnant was wonderful and such a blessing, but having Andrew this past 9 months has been even more amazing! I love my little boy!
As for the stats, he has leveled off in weight (finally!) at 20 lbs 11 oz, which is about the 50th percentile. He is 30 inches long, which is 95th percentile. (He is definitley taking after his dad.) He says "ma" and "ba" and just today started saying "da". It's so cute! He has a surprisingly low voice too. He loves crawling and walking while holding on to something or someone and cracks up at anything. His laugh is amazing to me!

This is Andrew's "Morpheus" shot. From the back, he looks just like Morpheus from The Matrix.

We took Andrew to the zoo for the first time last Saturday. (We went to the one in Santa Ana.) It's pretty cute and great for little kids. Andrew had a fun time, but didn't seem to be too excited about the animals.

He just looked so cute in this outfit playing with his blocks. :)

My 2 monkeys outside the monkey cages. This pic also shows the mohawk that Andrew got to show off at the zoo.

How cute!

Grammy and Papa ELM came for a visit Sunday to Monday. It was so good seeing them. We had an awesome visit. My mom and I went to Glen Ivy and got pedicures... Neither one of us had ever been to a spa before. It was so nice!... and great mother-daughter quality time. :)

Last week, we got to go over to Amy and Danny's house. Andrew had a fun time playing with Noah... and his toys. Although he got a little jealous when he saw his daddy playing with another baby!

Another shot of Grammy with Andrew.

Isn't this a funny face? He looks like a rapper staring into the camera at the end of some song. (You can also tell it was almost nap time by the circles under his eyes) :)

Those are some great shots! I can't believe how grown up Andrew is! I can't wait to see him again!

Lauren and Andrew are exactly the same size now: 20 pounds and 30 inches. I wish we could get them together to play again!
